"It's natural to be curious when someone you know to be human suddenly turned into a cat!"
Dude, don't you even realise you yourself are a bloody house-sized dragon, yet you turned into a human. That's far more remarkable than a human turning into a cat. At least a human and a cat are both mammals. A dragon is something more like dinosaurs/birds, not even a mammal.
Seriously, the author is probably an airhead herself. Maybe that's why she can design airheaded characters smoothly.
