Oh, I know, everyone thinks their pets think they are people. "Oh, look at Rover, he thinks he's a person! Oh, look at Fluffy, she thinks she's part of the family!" But I really do think wonder about my cat. He doesn't drink water from a bowl with his tongue, like a normal cat. If he must drink from the bowl, he uses his paw to scoop the water into his mouth, like a human cupping his hand. But he prefers to drink from cups, usually using the same cupped paw, especially if those cups contain soda. He also really likes tortilla chips if he can get them. And he enjoys watching TV.

Yes, he may look regal, like something the ancient Egyptians would worship, but I suspect in a past life, he was something closer to Homer Simpson.
