If that is the case, than maybe it is OK.
Yeah, I think it's really case by case in the animal kingdom, we have to avoid anthropomorphizing everything.
We need to respect all living things, at least attempt too
I agree, I just think it's very unintuitive, we live with aliens.
It can be case by case for animals of the same type even. One of my cats is legit scared of outside and has no interest in leaving the house for any reason. The other cat is hesitantly curious so sometimes we bring him out on a lead. He never wants to wander further than a few feet though even if we prompt him to explore. They live good lives and feel safe neither really feels the need to roam far as I can tell.
