    Im super amused that Egyptian Maus has the German word for mouse in the name. It might be interesting to see if one’s amenable to catpacking but I feel like the traumatic bustling of traffic/cars are an inescapable contraindication for them

      It’s Mau in the singular, Maus in the plural (in English anyway), but maybe there are still some amusingly ambiguous sentences possible in German! :)

      I wouldn’t recommend walking cats anywhere near any significant traffic. Maybe some cats would be OK with being in a pack (I’ve seen YT channels with cats in baskets on bikes etc) but I imagine you’d have to train them from a young age.
