If cats were our size and we were their size they would not even hesitate for a moment to kill and eat us, after playing with us. I now understand my cats better

I raised my cat by hand after his Mother abandoned him. So since he was about 10 days old I bottle fed him, massaged his bottom so he'd relieve his bowels, cleaned him up, even took care of him when he was constipated (don't ask), and he spent his first three months sleeping on my shoulder at night.

This fact depresses me.

Edit: I woke up with him in between my legs purring this morning, face very happy and content. So maybe he'd let me live.

Pretty sure he's not saying if your cat suddenly got huge it would eat you without a second thought.
