I think cats and dogs have a different muscle fibre profile than we do, they have a lot of quick muscles fibre, meant for the quick dashes of hunting prey, we have mostly slow muscle fibre , meant for marathons.

Maybe that has something to do with it. I'm not a vet. 🤷‍♀️ I just want to be able to sit on my arse like a cat. 😂
