I saw recently probably on youtube a person saying that their cat was transgender. I think that is insane and disrespectful to animal but some people just have opposite ideas I gues. I'm not saying that OP is the same crazy for asking the op question but I still think that we should consider animals to have animal feelings unknowable to us and respect that by assuming only the most basic ones like when they are hungry or hurt or feeling the yeeees when you scratch that spot

Fair point with a more extreme example. Reminds me of my Hindu prof who makes her dogs eat vegan lmao, I’m plant based but that’s too far for my pets
