The article states that "cats either evolved as a natural predator, or they were bred to hunt Sleepwalkers (which, given the number of cats in the world, would explain why Charles and Mary might be the last of their kind)."

From the movie, it looks more likely that the cats attack sleepwalkers out of territorial reasons, showing aggressive behavior directed at a rival species. The above quote from the article pertains to a predator-prey relationship which is not supported by the cats' behavior. (For example they do not eat killed sleepwalkers.) It is also unlikely that cats were bred to hunt sleepwalkers as all cats in the movie show an instinctive aggressive stance toward sleepwalkers, and training is not hereditary. 84.206.41.100 09:10, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
