It seems obvious now, but I wasn't really thinking about how pets are normally neutered or spayed and I also didn't realize the implications of inserting a word like "trying" into a statement and how that could potentially change the meaning of what I was trying to convey. I was thinking much more about cats and other animals in the wild rather than domesticated pets. It isn't difficult to commit such a logical fallacy without realizing it. I also wasn't trying to say that the cat itself knows about its genetic makeup. That would have been a pretty absurd statement.<br /><br />Overall, I have a lot that I still need to learn, especially at the age of 18, but I will be much more careful next time with how I word things.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05166618601866526009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7225373.post-11210763604325678442013-01-30T10:19:44.032-05:002013-01-30T10:19:44.032-05:00this just seems. . .aprapos
