Cat ownership in a nutshell. (x)

[Person: Lookit this fucker.

Cat: *muffled meowing*

Person: He’s got a cat door – *clicks light* – that he can come in. But nope! He wants to come in the door!

Cat: *muffled meow*

Person: You wanna come in the door? Y’wanna come in? Alright, watch this – *door squeaks open* WELCOME to the house, Joe! Come on in–

Cat: *runs away, jingling*

Person: You FUCKER!!]

Cats have a very poor sense of object permanence.  As such, they don’t realize that its possible for two doors to lead to the same room.  In their mind if they come in one door, that’s one room and if they come in the other door, that’s a completely different room. This is why, if you let a cat out and it’s raining, it will run inside and meow at you to open another door.  They aren’t able to connect that both doors lead to the same outside.

In this case, this cat does not want to go to The Place The Cat Door Leads To but rather is asking to go to The Place The Front Door Leads To.

As for why he runs away at the end?

Well, he’s an asshole.
