Japanese photographer Hisakata Hiroyuki has dedicated his time to observing cats during their intense training sessions and capturing the moves they use to amaze us through his lens. From punches and kicks to flips, spins, and the occasional death glare, this photographer has seen all the tricks these little assassins have to offer. As Dr. Michele Gelfand, a cultural psychologist, notes, "Animals often exhibit behaviors that reflect their environment and training, showcasing their unique personalities."
