Cat Skill

3. Hunting & Play Intelligence

• Prey preference (feathers, mice, laser, string, bugs, nothing)
• Hunting style (stalker, pouncer, ambusher, chaser)
• Play schedule (most cats have specific active hours — usually dawn/dusk)
• Toy graveyard tracking (which toys get ignored)
• Indoor hunting substitutes and satisfaction levels

4. Multi-Cat Dynamics

• Social hierarchy mapping (who's alpha, who's beta, who's omega)
• Resource sharing analysis (food bowls, litter boxes, sleeping spots, human laps)
• Allogrooming patterns (who grooms who = social bond indicator)
• Conflict patterns (what triggers fights, who starts them, who backs down)
• How adding/losing a cat reshapes the entire social structure

5. The Feline Communication Decoder

• Meow dictionary specific to YOUR cat (cats only meow at humans, not each other)
• Slow blink frequency and context (the "cat kiss")
• Tail position and movement decoder
• Ear position mapping
• Belly exposure analysis (trap or genuine trust?)
• Kneading patterns (who, when, what surface)
• Head bunting targets and meaning
• The "bring you a dead thing" gift interpretation

6. Cat Logic Explainer

When your cat does something baffling, this skill explains the feline logic:

• Why they knock things off tables (testing gravity? hunting practice? attention?)
• Why they sit on your keyboard (warmth + you're paying attention to it not them)
• Why they zoom at 3am (crepuscular prey drive)
• Why they stare at nothing (they see/hear things you can't)
• Why they love boxes (enclosed space = safe ambush position)
• Why they hate closed doors (territory access denied = unacceptable)
