  I think we don't know what gravity exactly is. They are looking into it, but have not found an explanation yet.
  There are some theories about it, namely Newton's one and Einstein's one, but no ones knows where it really comes from.

  But it's something we experience everyday and we can describe by mathematics, and that's how we use it.

  And btw, the cat you dropped is attracted by the earth, but also the earth is attracted by the cat, it's just the difference in mass that makes it look like only the cat is attracted to the earth.
