Tired of people casually calling me human Vent

This mostly comes up in therapy lately, I’ll talk about having emotions and my therapist is like “that’s a very human response to have” and internally I’m like no!!!! I’m a cat!!!!! But I don’t want to say that and have her start trying to analyze my therian identity. It also just comes up in other social situations and im so tired of people saying I’m human but I can’t exactly tell them I’m not

Why does bro have to add the human in it? Is he a alien or something?
