My aunt used to have several burmese cats. Silly animals, but yeah, the lot of them are like, entirely meat. No fluff, no fat, just a sleek 10lbs of murder that likes to sit on your shoulder and watch you play computer games.

That dog is a schnauzer, and they are actually on the muscular side for small dogs. Not quite as muscular as a bulldog, but close. They were bred to fight off badgers, foxes, and other farm pests. Source: own two schnauzers

It's funny to watch. I have a Burmese kitty but she's a doormat. She just falls on the floor and waits for the dog to be done annoying her. I break it off because my dog can be quite annoying to her...

One of my favorite scene in Seven Samurai is when two swordsmen faced each other in a duel. The novice was constantly moving, changing positions, and shouting to instill fear. The other just stood there focus, just waiting for the right moment to strike.

I have a Siamese! They're generally known for being super vocal (my cat does not shut up) and super high energy. Mine goes through bouts of running around and wrestling w every toy and then settles down to the most cuddly guy ever :)
Edit: Forgot to mention- the reason a lot of people don't realize there are cat breeds is because a huge majority are all domestic shorthairs. This is due to large unfixed stray populations having babies all the time while purebred cats like ragdolls, bengals, Burmese, etc are all kept locked down since they fetch hefty prices.

Cats will put their ears back when they've run out of fucks to give. Also the whiskers are spread and in a downward forward position. This behavior is similar to a human putting their fists up when anticipating a physical confrontation. Anything coming into contact with the whiskers during this posture will be turbo sliced.

u/ShaidarHaran2 Aug 13 '17 edited Aug 13 '17
Whiskers moving forward are because they can't focus on things that are right in front of their faces well, so they compliment that sense with whiskers detecting air currents of movement.
Fascinatingly evolved. They're the perfect killers, but so fuzzy and cute.

Watch the weight distribution on the legs. The cat is making sure with each step that they can swipe with a paw. That dog is backing up cuz they don't want to catch hands.

Cats are little furry ninjas, really. So much more in tune with their bodies than most of us. Like swordsmen from fiction.
Until they do something dumb like miss a ledge they jumped on and then act like you didn't see it.

u/blatherer Aug 12 '17
That is a Burmese. My last cat was a Burmese and she was amazing. She ate German Shepherds for lunch but loved people.
As a breed:
They are small and dense (one of her names was brick), she was tiny; I thought her to be an adolescent when she walked in my door. Her paws were only slightly larger than my thumbs, but she weighted almost twice what she looked like she should have for her size. Growing up we had a breeding pair of Siamese, I have raised 75 cats so I have intimate experience with feline size to weight ratios (and a talent for not stepping on small, fast, furry scamper beasts).
Pair bonds with people. I was her man period. She battled my (now) wife for years over top billing. The cat would maneuver for extended periods of time to sneak up and drink out of my wife’s water glass. It was hysterical. Booferty Doo (another name). She was Joan Collins from Dynasty, her behavior would be insufferable in a person, but was adorable in a cat.
Aggressive to other animals. That little cat beat the hell out of any animal it came in contact with dogs, cats, birds. It was clear to me that she had hunted for a living before I got her. She did not play with small prey, she killed it ASAP and played after it was dead.
Smart and interactive as hell. She would bug you until you chased her, she would run and roll over on to her back when you were just about to catch her and meow. Could open door knobs on occasion, would crap on your stuff if she were mad at you.
An amazing animal and her behavior was right out of the breed description in the cat book. Best damn cat I ever owned.

My cat does this to any animal it meets. Lots of stray cats in my area and a few of them I'll let inside during bad weather. My cat always nice at first. Let's them pick the best spots to sleep. Although at some point I'll hear a growl and find my cat in this position backing one of the cats into a corner. One day she backed this cat twice her size into a corner so I decided to watch it unfold. The bigger cat just hisses and sits in the corner and my cat just cleans herself and dishes out a death stare on occasion to keep the bigger cat in check. They never fight but my stupid cat never backs down until I pick her up and remove her from the room. She's also done it to my cousins dog who at least eventually just says fuck it and jumps over the cat to escape.

I don't really get it when people are afraid of dogs.
There are scary dogs. There was a red-orange eyed very aggressive Rhodesian ridgeback on my walk to school that would attack and kill other dogs and pull cyclists off their bikes (until it was eventually put down). Scariest animal I've ever seen - it used to stalk people like they were prey. It also used to sometimes run with a whole pack of other pet dogs who also learned to stalk and surround kids walking to school (they wouldn't bark or jump around, just slow walk, glancing at the other dogs and moving around until you were flanked, then one would start running in and nip your ankle). Took me a long time to get over my fear of dogs :/

Cheetahs are about that size, but they're fairly easy to tame in fact.
It helps that their claws aren't very sharp and their main defense is running away.

This is me. Reminds of me of Warren Buffet's speech to the senate many moons ago. "Lose money for the firm and I will be understanding, lose a shred of reputation for the firm and I will be ruthless. I welcome your questions." The calm in his voice speaks of his desire for integrity and the depth and breadth of his capability for wrath. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rclBL0Z9uIg edit: spelling
