Summary

This quote implies that an animal's response (in this case, a cat) towards someone, such as growling, spitting, or biting, is not necessarily indicative of their true nature. The quote suggests that what truly matters is the intention behind the actions of the person interacting with the animal. It poses the question of whether the person is genuinely caring for the animal's well-being (a vet) or harming them for experimentation (a vivisector). The quote challenges us to consider the underlying motives and ethics of individuals, highlighting the importance of compassion and responsible treatment towards animals.
