Relatively skinny legs compared to body mass. They can't be treated because you just can't keep them off of a broken leg while it heals. Maybe if you put it in full-body traction for a few months but that's not practical, it would break out and hurt itself again.

Cat owners are just like. They'll allow their cats to terrorize their existence and cope with it by saying it's just "cat things" or some other faggot excuse. Absolute fucking retards.

>>5058264
crazy cat lady propaganda has them convinced cats are untrainable wild animals that merely choose to live with us

cats are actually easier to train than dogs because they’re too dumb to try and outsmart you. you merely have to train them more exactingly because they are too dumb to fill in the gaps in half assed training.
