It's not about understanding, it's about alignment of drives/intentions.
Humans who are arseholes have drives and understandings that are vey human and reasonably understandable, but they're arseholes nonetheless simply because these drives are in a bit of a conflict with what others around them would like to and they don't care much about the desires of others - just like most cats.

And some humans apparently also completely lack a sense of tolerance for humourous criticisms of animals.
Cats, much like dogs, and every other non-human on the planet, have different drives and understandings than a human. Just because we aren't capable of fully understanding those drives isn't a reason to denigrate them.
The next time your cat does something that is outside of your understanding, please have a little compassion.
