I think that what she meant was the tone of your post was very unpleasant. We try to be more polite here.
And anyone who has had animals knows that they do have emotions: Love, fear, anger, sorrow, grief, to name just a few. We just tend to credit them with more reasoning ability than they actually have.
With cats they can be only half siblings. Every kitten can have a different father.
I once had a male cat that took his turn sitting with the kittens. While she was giving birth, he never left her side and would lick her on the head when she cried out in pain during delivery. That night she took the babies one at a time and put them with the father in his favorite sleeping chair and he was still with them in the morning. From that point on he took turns watching the kittens.
