The weird part isn't animals having emotions, it's when they seem to be expressing them in ways that make sense to us. Everyone who's had a dog or cat knows they express emotions very differently from us.

I’ve had dogs and cats and their emotions make sense to me. They seem to express them in ways that make sense to me.
