Pointing a Finger at Feline Malingerers

It's an old argument. Which are smarter - dogs or cats? Lately, I had seen some articles trumpeting dogs' understanding of humans. But along comes a cat article that makes those mischievous kitties look pretty devious:
They don't talk, but when cats are upset about a change in their environment they let you know by acting sick – refusing to eat and vomiting excessively, even if they're healthy, a new study finds.
In other words, these kitties call in sick, and vomit like they've got it, even though they're fine.

That's not just smart,
that's almost art.
