There are more ways a cat marks territory than just scratching trees (couches, desks, curtains). Of course they would be impractical in any advanced civilization. Are fences and national borders any less a way
Made me wonder if the "face rubbing" that cats use as one way to mark territory/possessions would have evolved into a form of greeting or display of affection. Obviously another way in which male cats mark territory would probably be verboten :) Ed
