I agree with this. I do not know much about the philosophy of language, so I did not know that this was the consensus on the definitions of words like ‘cat’.
I am not sure that there is a possible distinction in this case. It is metaphysically necessary that cats are necessary, but we have not proved it to be synthetic.
