Ok that’s impressive. You didn’t just supply one real world example, but three. You had to be thinking when you read this comic, “Hang on, I got you bro…” 🤣

Well, afaik cats don't do this as much and/or it's less pronounced (bcs of how the immediate expression looks like & that, from human pov, they are a bit autistic).

I've seen more often cats do the threatening approach but then just sniff & pass by after a few seconds.

And yeah, I searched for those gifs bcs the doors in the posts comic reminded me more of dogs barrier aggression/frustration.
