MODERATORS
I judge entire neighbourhoods on how amenable cats are. If a cat chilling on the footpath is pleased to meet me, then I'm calm. If a cat sitting 50 meters away from me responds to my friendly greeting chirp by backing under the nearest car with flat ears and a sunken tail, I assume the humans around it are garbage people and I need to get out. Cats are to the streets as frogs are to the rivers.
Whats that about frogs?
I assume they're referring to how the presence of frogs is an indicator as to the cleanliness of the water. If the river is highly polluted no frogs will be present.
This is precisely what I meant, and I'm glad it came across. ๐
I personally only visit neighbourhoods where the frogs respond to my chirp of greeting by rolling around on their backs and allowing me to pet their tummies
