LD, there are two types of Nekomata, this is a fragment from the wiki:

at the same time, in the Kokon Chomonjū from the Kamakura period, in the story called Kankyō Hōin (観教法印), an old cat raised in a precipitous mountain villa held in its mouth a secret treasure, a protective sword, and ran away, and people chased after it, but it disguised its appearance right then, and it left behind that the pet cat became a monster, but in the aforementioned "Tsurezuregusa", this is also a nekomata, and it talks about how other than the nekomata that conceal themselves in the mountains, there are also the pet cats that grow old, transform, and eat and abduct people.[4]

It should be noted than in the main/our/RL legend it could never conceal that it has two tails, here disregarded, probably so she can avoid being detected from the Order fanatics.

Rep, I think you're confusing the meaning of 'Primal' warping it's meaning into Bestial or some uberform meaning. Primal is as it name states something that was first that way, something's original/first form in this case, so yes, a 'normal' cat would be Nekomata's primal form.
