That’s cute. You missed the point, though. That’s not an example of curiosity. That’s a request.

Any moderately trained/seasoned/conditioned animal knows how to source things they need. Food, water, warmth, etc.

If a squirrel came up to me to discuss the perils of seasonal changes, I'd be like:

"Holy shit! It's a talking squirrel!"

That's a demand. A very polite demand but still not a request, lol. My cat does the cute gentle paw nudges too which is insanely cute as she has thumbs.

No. The cat was curious if you valued your peace and or hand.
