   Possibly.  My experience with them is that many pet cats have a tendency to   
   do a lot of things that either don't seem to have purpose, or that are done   
   out of spite.   
      
   On the other hand, for a while I had a neighbor who had a cat that was a   
   very good mouser.  He kept the small rodent population down.  My opinion of   
   him is that he certainly had purpose.  ;)
