"It’s actually quite sad, as it’s a sickness, not “playing”
Your first message literally states as of it were fact that the cat is sick, then you follow it with " might be nothing much" and acknowledge that’s it’s hard to diagnose with a 2 second gif. It makes it sound like you’re pulling random comments out of the air just to hear yourself talk.
Have you met a younger cat? Have you known cats when they “get zoomies”? As strange as it may look, this is pretty damn normal silly cat behavior when they get really excited. Ever see a dog playing that gets so excited it startles itself with its own tail? It’s the same thing.
Hard to grasp hm?
It’s of course hard to judge by a 2s-gif. But it’s also most likely NOT just playing, based on experience and common sense.
Same I assume you’re American by that little you wrote here. Might be wrong, but probably is correct.
If you think biting nails, or something like that is “normal for humans”, then fine. It’s not really hurting. But not healthy either.
Why even comment on anything here at all? That’s all we all had to begin with. And my judgement was based on that. Might be wrong (but probably isn’t). Or might be right (most likely is, hence I said it).
But if you want it to be “normal cat-play”, what do I care? Believe it!
Might be nothing much (overexcited “playing”, etc) might also be a lot else:
Surely hard to diagnose with a 2seconds-gif. If that occurs once a week and seems harmless (no wounds, blood, hairloss) it probably is.

so… exactly what you did? In future, maybe try less assertion…
