could you explain why/if we can't just copy the genes of one animal and splice them into another animal, for example why we couldn't give humans cat ears?
There's no one easy way to answer this, but the basic answer is that it's not that simple. There's no one gene, or even easily reducible set of genes, that just is "make cat ears". Not only is there a network of genes activated within a cell, there are a myriad of signals from nearby cells (the "microenvironment") as well as cues from the rest of the body and environment.
So each one of the cells making your ear isn't just encoded to be a cell that makes your ear. In fact, most of them don't have any "ear" genetic characteristics or activation. They're generic cartilage or skin cells that were told to grow more or less by neighboring cells or distant cells during carefully coordinated times during growth and development. Each cell interprets this signal in different ways, and also receives multiple signals at a time, the combination of which can produce unique results.
The easiest to interpret example of this is finger development. During development, when your hand is still a fingerless paddle, a single cell on the pinky side of your hand (or thumb side, it could be reversed) releases a signalling molecules to nearby cells. A cell receiving the highest dose will start to become a pinky, and send a signal for the cells immediately around it to aide in that. The next cell that isn't aiding that, but still receives the initial signal, receives a lower concentration of that signal since it's further away. That lower concentration signals a ring finger, and it repeats until you get thumbs at the lowest concentrations.
That's the most visible example, but it's similar to what happens all over the body- signals that are dependent on the structure and genetics of the microenvironment, not just the genetics of the developing cells alone.
This careful network of timing, signals, gene activations, and spatial placement of cells is the core of the field of Developmental Biology (which, technically, my PhD is in as well bc it's often wrapped in with molecular bio lol).
So making cat ears on a human genetically would essentially require not only genetic manipulation, but also babysitting the fetus the entire time and adding in localized signals to the microenvironment of the developing ear cells, which is essentially impossible. There's too much "human" flying around to realistically get that result, and an attempt at doing so would essentially be akin to molecular sculpting. That's why *my* preferred approach would be epithelial stem cell manipulation/printing and subsequent grafting, but that's an entirely different thing.
If you're interested in this kind of thing, the most approachable and engaging summary of developmental biology is the book "Your Inner Fish", by Neil Shubin, the discoverer of Tiktaalik. He summarizes a lot of dev biology through the lens of evolutionary biology, which is a great way to see how differences in structures have arisen and differentiate across the tree of life.
If you want a shorter introduction, and like cute but kinda "cringey in the way you love" science parodies: the song evo-devo by a capella science is really fun and gets stuck in my head a lot:
youtube
But yeah, hope that answered your question!

Made with speech to text. If there's giant massive typos please let me know lol.
If you can crochet or knit a rectangle you can make a cat-ear hat!
Tumblr media
[Image description start. A photo of two crochet rectangles sitting on top of my box on a sofa. One is solid royal purple, The other is striped in brown and black. Image description end.]
The purple one I made a few months ago and made taller so that it could be folded up or down by the wear.
Tumblr media
[Image description start. A photo of a non-binary person wearing the purple hat above, which seems to form two pointed cat ears at the top corners. The person's eyes have been censored with a black bar that reads it / its. The edge of the hat has been folded up slightly to form a brim. Image description end.]
The brown one I started last night then just finished today. I was originally going to add an orange eye on the front to make it seemed after one of my original characters but I like it just as it is.
Tumblr media
[Image description start. The same non-binary person now wearing the brown and black hat with the same censor bar with its pronouns listed. Image description end.]
These are made with double crochet, but you can use any stitch you want.
To make this, figure out how tall and wide you have want your hat to be, and which way you want the stitches to face then make a rectangle that when folded in half matches that, and close the openings except for one.
The purple one was made so that when I finished it I turned the whole thing at the 90° angle, so that what had been the side of the crochet became the opening, and what had been the top and bottom were sealed shut.
The brown one I just closed the ends of the rectangle and the top.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
[Image description start. Two simple digital diagrams showing how to make the hats above. The first shows the brown and black hat, first shown as a flat rectangle, with instructions to fold it sideways upon itself. Then you seal the top and the side, and your hat is ready.
The second shows the purple hat, instructing you to flip the flat rectangle at a 90°, then fold it down, and it's seal both sides.
Best versions have a drawing showing that the hat is ready of a simple smiling stick figure wearing the hat surrounded by lines as though the person is glowing.]
You can flip your rectangle anyway you want to get the pattern you want.
I don't remember what I used as a base for the purple hat but for the brown and black one I did a chain of 65 to start. Just measure around whoever's head is supposed to be wearing the hat to make sure it will be wide enough.
You can also probably definitely make one that has handles so that it can be either hat or a bag.
