Okay Balthier felt that, the deep vibrating purr. It’s very disorienting to be so attracted to David and his voice and his smell and his gorgeous body in Balthier’s lap and simultaneously very repulsed by this pointedly not being fully David and genuinely alarming.

At the words though, he is at least convinced David is in there, and that this spell has not altered his feelings.

“Well darling I’ll give you that you make a very good cat.” Definitely not planning to fight anything while he’s like this though. He’s using his free hand to search around for his teleport token.
