Is he judging me?

He’s a cat, so yes.

Past tense, you've already been judged, he's deciding the consequences.

He's decided you're not on his level, but he thinks you're cool all the same.

Always

We can only be grateful that cats also have a great sense of humor. It's why they put up with us.

We all are 😼

Scooter seems as though he is constantly subtly judging you, or something else.
