Yeah it’s so dumb. Cats obviously don’t think the things over ten times their size that walk on a different amount of legs are the same as them.
Further, another “fun fact” I see a lot (equally questionable) is that cats meow only to communicate with humans, not cats. But that’s mutually exclusive with cats thinking humans are the same as them.
my cat has a specific meow for each of us (including my wife’s cat) when she just woke up and is looking for a specific someone for post-nap cuddles. her “hey, Orange Dumbass! where are you!” is definitely a meow tho.

The meowing one has been disproven by cat-mounted cameras. They talk to each other.
