Cat is not even a verb.
A verb is a doing word.
Cat is a name of an animal so it is a noun.
So no, its not a linking verb!
The subject is "my cat" and there is no action verb. The linking verb is "is" (to be).
No. The verb to become is a linking verb, and the verb to be is a linking verb, but they are two separate verbs.
The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object is a different form of the subject (Mary is my sister. Mary=sister); or the subject becomes the object (My feet got wet. feet->wet).The verb stayed (past tense of to stay) can be a linking verb, for example:You have stayed the same as I remember you. (You -> same)The cat stayed at the window all morning. (this is not a linking verb, the window is not another form of the cat)
Was is a linking verb.
