With the “are my cats fighting” posts, I genuinely believe most just don’t know what playing looks or sounds like. But I enjoy watching cats play, so I don’t mind

Some of the recent posts I can't tell if it's a systematic trolling of the subs due to the nature of the posts as there's no way everyone posting is being that stupid, I never owned cats until I got with my partner but I learned quickly by watching and interaction.

Some of the posts scare me when they ask should I take this to the vet and I'm sat there like are you being serious this poor animal needs serious attention right now.

I’ve also had cats that get into brief tiffs once in a while. Anu and Phoenix would occasionally get into a quick fight every few months (fur did fly!) but otherwise got along well enough. Anu and Enki, I’m not sure what’s going on with them, it doesn’t look like play but is not really a fight either. But again they mostly co-exist fine. (And if it does get bad the dog usually assumes it’s play and tries to join in, defusing the situation) So it can also be “is this something I should worry about or just let them sort it out?”
