I learned this in runescape except everyone followed the leader and look like two people on the minimap until the person is close enough to right click and see list of players long enough to go off screen.
Cats walk in a way called "direct registering," where their back paws land almost exactly where their front paws just stepped, leaving only two visible footprints instead of four. This behavior helps them walk quietly, conserve energy, and maintain steady footing
Most cats actually do that, it's not weird at all but an evolotion. Leaving only two visible footprints instead of four. This behavior helps them walk quietly, conserve energy, and maintain steady footing

"what,? Like it's hard?"
- cat, if he did not ignore everyone anyway

I’m also thinking that Cat was thinking, “I could just walk around this silly-ass bridge, but that wouldn’t embarrass doggo nearly enough.”

Cattle grids are used to prevent livestock from walking over them.
RaZorHamZteR
The turn at the end there... "Did I walk over... Ah, yea. A cattle grid. Sweet."
nojustsayitdont
Cattle have long legs, and have a hard time with cattle grates.
ICorrectGrammarIncorrectlyForAmusement
Well it did say the length of the legs, not that just longer was better for this purpose, to be fair....

Cat's Grace, they've got advantage on dexterity checks.
sarukane
And a dex of 15 with balance +10.

No darkvision though for some reason

So you're saying take a dip into Warlock for Devil's Sight. Got it!

One of the most baffling things about dnd cats when i heard about it
FarceMajeure
But how do they compare in a flat out sprint? Are we judging fish on their climbing?
PickleRiiiiiiiiiiiiick
Dogs are slower as they are persistence predators. Cats rely on burst speed and are 50%+ faster.
FarceMajeure
Well that adds up with why we made such good hunting buddies
PickleRiiiiiiiiiiiiick
100%. Dual persistence predators for the winRAR.

The average house cat can run at 30 mph (48.3 km/h). Dachshunds can only do about 20mph (32.2 km/h).

This is why we love cats and dogs. They evoke different emotions in us
DorgEndo
Often opposite yet equally satisfying evocations

Length of the cats legs makes zero difference they use direct registering meaning that their back foot goes exactly where their front foot was
duffman3335
Yeah. Fn cat cheated.
WhatzitTooya
Good luck trying that with stumpy legs, no? I see no way the weiner could do that even if he wanted to.
ebonyfaery
In this case the length of the body is more relevant than the direct registry yes
MechanicalRomance
I mean it's more of a body/leg ratio to be fair
ebonyfaery
That too.
Snooj
Dogs can do that too unless they are Dachshunds and physically incapable of it.

Dogs generally need to be trained or conditioned, cats do so instinctively. (re: direct registering, not crossing a cattle guard)
THUB
My hound-y mix places his back paws in his front paws' prints. I assure you I did not train him to do that.

Cats are like stormtroopers and March to hide their numbers
ExTechOp
(Akshually the original quote was about Tusken Raiders aka "sand people")
poscduke
Damn, you're right. The stormtroopers didn't and that's how Ben knew it was then

Work smart, not hard.

Single file... To hide their numbers

This would have been better if a dog followed them out.

I meant the last one that walked cross legged through the tracks

she's trying her best ;)

oh I upvoted you for being snarky to the intelligent one in the crowd and you had to go and wreck it.
