I grew concerned when I looked up cats in concepts and didn't see them, but then I looked them up as objects and poof, they're there! Someone must've made an oversight when adding this page.

Well, I'm not sure they're "concepts," but they're certainly not "objects" either. Cats are sweet, whatever they fall under.

They fall closer to an object than an abstract concept

Cats aren't ideas so they really dont fit the concept page, however they are physical and can be interacted with so objects suits them better.

Proof positive that there needs to be "race," "animal," or something similar added to site. A concept is defined as something a) conceived in the mind, and/or b) an abstract or general idea generalized from particular instances. I think a cat qualifies as something substantially more than an abstract or general idea.

Except for me, I'm a bad idea.

I agree with MagusMaleficus, although I'm 100% certain that the staff said that Goombas count as a concept. Goombas are a species of creatures and so are cats and dogs.

Can you touch a human? Human is listed as a concept as well.

Well Human, the concept, doesn't necessarily have anything to do with Humans, just the act of being human.

The act of being human? Well then, cats are the act of being cats.

Well, it all depends on how you look at it. If you're talking about the goomba race, then it's a concept.

I do agree however, that there needs to be a "race" section.
