Can you expand on how you interact with cats? Do you spend much thought hypothesizing about what a cat is thinking? I do, and find it to make a significant difference in (kitty petting frequency) outcomes even though the information rate is so low and I always have many hypotheses; if that isn’t what you mean then I’d like to understand in detail what kind of modeling you’re doing when you interact with a cat “as a cat”.
Yeah, I track (my guesses of) what the cat is thinking/feeling, and one part of that is putting myself in their place and experiencing (what I believe to be) some of their feelings.
