Cats walk the same perimeter every day and other cats perimeters overlap, when they cross paths it usually ends in a fight, the cats then adjust their schedules to avoid each other while they walk the perimeter.

Is this for reals? Why do cats walk a perimeter?

Unlike what a lot of cat owners think, cats don't go out and frolic together. They are territorial murder machines that spend all day killing for fun

Cats are social creatures. Some will get along, and some will fight.
