I don't know about you guys but personally, if I was a cat, I would so want to glow in the dark.

Not really. Humans outlive most animals. We erect buildings and write literature, paint portraits and compose music. More important than eating sleeping and shitting. Most importantly we are both of the same species and animals are not, so isn't that kind of going against species survival instincts?

Last I checked we were humans, not animals. Mammals, yes, but the term animal does not include human in the common perception.
