    You just see more dogs running around excited than you do cats…

    A cat is a solitary predator that uses stealth than pounces.

    Dogs are pack predators, they get food by running around making a shit ton of noise and hoping something runs so the pack can chase it down.

    That translates to modern pets day to day activity.

    If you ever saw a cat run around like a dog, it would pant. If you saw a dog that acts like a cat. You’d never see it pant.

      I see dogs just laying in their dog bed in the shade panting. I see cats playing in the sun on a hot day not panting.

        Cats play by ambushing something over and over and rolling around with it…

        Dogs play by running sprints as long as someone keep throwing a ball…

        I’m not sure what your confusion still is

        If a dog is lying in the shade panting, and it wasn’t just doing zoomies, that might honestly be a cause for concern.
