Super cute dwarf kitten video

This is a super-cute short video of a super-cute tabby dwarf kitten wandering around a hard floor. It doesn't get much cuter except the music is not particularly great as far as I am concerned. Please remember by the way that this sort of video can stop working after a while because they get pulled from the website of origin which in this case is Pinterest.

You have to think about the more serious aspects of what looks like a totally innocent video. I'm referring to the fact that the breeding of dwarf cats is questionable. I know that the breeders do all they can to be healthy cats but dwarf cats can inherit a couple of known genetic illnesses. If you breed cats with that potential then you shouldn't do it in my opinion. The Germans would agree with me because they call it "torture breeding". Also, although it's very cute for a cat to have very short legs it goes against nature. Who cares about nature?

Well, a lot of people do especially nowadays with the coronavirus pandemic. People are beginning to see that we should respect nature otherwise we get a backlash from nature. And short legs means that a domestic cat loses a lot of what they are given by nature which is that wonderful athleticism. Their ability to jump beautifully and with great precision. A lot of that is lost in dwarf cats.

Dwarf cat owners say that their cat can jump just fine. Yes, they can jump just fine but not as well as a normal cat because the levers i.e. the length of the bones, are not there and jumping power comes about through fast twitch muscles and long levers. That principle by the way is used when you throw a tennis ball with one of those extenders that dog owners buy. These extenders, as I have called them, increase the lever length of the throwing arm which means that the person can throw the tennis ball much further and with relative ease for a dog to chase.

So we have a sweet, cute video with crappy music but there's something slightly difficult to accept behind the cuteness which is the health and behavioural aspects of the kitten that we see.
