sure sure, i'm just telling you what this behavior looks like from the outside. according to me. very eminent scholar of these kinds of things, really. honestly.

but seriously, we've had cats since i was ... 5? and i never ever thought of connecting the coloring of a cat to its personality. ever. this never entered the horizon of things to think for anyone i knew in hungary in the 90s. or the 2000s. i first encountered this sort of thinking on reddit a few years ago. the only thing i can relate it to is the stories of people killing black cats because of witches or whatever.
