I knew I was right!

I just read a small article on cats.

Did you know they're the smartest animals in the world?

It's a fact.
(because I said so)

The article explains how tests were conducted on several animals (I'm going to go ahead and assume every single animal on the planet. Even amoebas. And I'm also going to assume amoebas are animals.) and found that animals would rather work for food if given a choice (and if the food choices were of the same tastiness).
So long as it wasn't anything too strenuous. I don't think seals would, like, build you a garage for a fishhead or anything like that but it might pull a lever or tip over a bucket or something of that nature.

Every single animal.
Yeah.

Except one.

The common (freeloading) housecat.

As I'm typing this, my fat cat is sitting on my lap, eyes closed, tummy full of free food that he did nothing to earn.

I would do an experiment to see if he would actually be willing to work for his food but I really don't want to be laughed at.
Because I think a laughing cat would look demonic.
