Nowadays, cats have become one of the most popular pets, they are lively and cute, and importantly, they are born to go to the bathroom in a fixed place, which is the perfect pet isn't it?
Here are some tips about cats, take a look.
1. Ears
Cats have 32 fast muscles near their ears, and these muscle groups allow their ears to rotate nearly 280 degrees to receive sound, so their hearing is extraordinarily developed, so developed that cats can locate objects 20 meters away with the slightest sound, with no more than 0.5 degrees of error!
So, if you call the cat, the cat ignores you, not that it can not hear, but it really does not want to care about you, at this time take a small dried fish and then try to call out, perhaps more useful.
2. Paws
The cat's claws can help cats do cushioning in addition to heat dissipation, as well as leaving a glandular odor. When your cat stomps around on you, it is also leaving its scent on you.
3. Hair
There are five known allergens in cats, but they do not include cat hair, so cat hair allergies are caused by humans being allergic to a certain protein in cat saliva, which the cat licks onto its body, thus causing human allergies.
4. Teeth
Cats' teeth are mainly used to cut food into pieces. Cats rarely chew, but only use their teeth when they encounter large pieces of food, and do not chew slowly as we humans do.
5. Cats are also left and right-handed
Usually, female cats are generally right-handed, while male cats are left-handed. Try your cat with a teaser stick and see which leg they stretch to scratch first.
6. Lactose intolerance
Most cats are lactose intolerant and are not suitable for drinking pure milk. Many people have the impression that cats like to drink milk, probably from the classic cartoon "Tom and Jerry", in which the animated Tom likes to drink milk.
But in reality, most cats are lactose intolerant, and cats drinking milk are prone to diarrhea and soft stools.
7. Catnip
Only two-thirds of cats respond to catnip, and it is inherited. Some people may find that their cats do not respond to catnip at all, unlike other cats who are obsessed, and this is normal because only 65-75% of cats respond to catnip.
Cats that do respond to catnip will create emotional, rolling, rubbing, licking, jumping, meowing, and parkouring behaviors after catching the scent of catnip. After a few tens of seconds or minutes, these excited behaviors will gradually calm down.
Experiments have shown that large cats such as lions, tigers, and leopards also respond to this and that this characteristic is hereditary.
Now, do you feel like you understand cats a little better?
