    Humans have stripes that are invisible to us. However, cats can see our stripes.

      Is it all humans or just those humans with two X chromosomes? Relevant video on the subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BD6h-wDj7bw

      Also in this video, we can see female cat’s stripes in their fur color.

      By this logic, does this mean my striped cat doesn’t realize she has stripes?

          If I asked for stripes and got this, I’d want my money back.
