When the shoveler applauds for love, does the cat know what it is doing?
A search online, it turns out that I am not the only one who has such a BT question...
On this special day, should I invite the cat out of the bedroom?
01 Cats know that there is something different at this moment
As a high-level hunter, the facial features are all high-end, and everything happens around them is in control!
Super dynamic vision + night vision
Cats have strong night vision capabilities. In nights with only weak light sources, TA's retina can also collect a lot of effective light~
Cats: "Add a little sense of atmosphere for you"
At the same time, cats also have super dynamic vision, and with the nature of hunters, they are extremely sensitive to objects in motion. Therefore, when you move at high speed one after another, the floating hair, the necklaces shaking around your neck, the dust floating in the air, and cat hair are always swaying their nerves...

It is very sensitive to high-frequency sounds
Cats have a special ear structure with small gaps, a hearing range of 48Hz~85,000Hz, and can hear more and wider sounds.
Especially for high-frequency sounds, cats are very sensitive...
Those subtle breathing, panting, crunching of the bed, and applause, can be said to be "sounds into the ears"...
Super sensitive sense of smell
Cats have highly developed covolar devices. Since their birth, they have had a super sensitive sense of smell that is more than 40 times higher than that of humans!
This allows TAs to smell the pheromones emitted by humans. These special odors are not only a olfactory stimulus, but cats can also judge human emotions through these pheromones.
For example, when you are happy/in love, the cat can smell the endorphins released from your body and feel your quick fall. So when you are there, do you think the cat knows nothing...
02 but not completely
However, the cat knows, but not completely
.
Mikel Delgado, a cat behavior consultant at the University of California, Berkeley, said cats may know that our behavior is different and emit a special odor, but it is very likely that he is not aware that the bipedal is doing X.
In fact, if you take a step back, even if the cat knows what you are doing, you don’t have to be embarrassed! In their eyes, all this is a natural behavior. After all, they do not shy away from licking their butts...
So, since the cat doesn't know you are doing X, what do you think you are doing?
Just like cats can squat or lick each other's hair every day, they may think you are also playing.
If you move too fiercely and roughly, the cat may think you are arguing and fighting.
"I smell the pheromones. I don't know what happened, but I was angry and woke me up!"
03TAs usually react as follows
Faced with such inconspicuous scenes, their reactions often have the following:
Curiously watching
➤ The most likely reaction of a cat is to be curious and stare at all. After all, you squat on the toilet and take a shower, and you should also stare at it...
But don't worry, you usually look at it for a while and find that there is nothing interesting, so you walk away...
➤ Jump onto the bed, smell it, stretch your paws and test it out, confirm that there is nothing fun, go away.
For some lively cats, especially kittens, they may want to participate in the game (simulated hunting), jump on the bed and run around, and bit your male ticket's toes...
In particular, if you have some interesting decorations on the clothes you are wearing at this time, such as small poms and strings, be careful~
Cats are not very interested in bipedal beasts (unless you are opening cans).. In addition, if you see them too much, you will usually get used to them.
Of course, many cats are not only uninterested, but also choose to stay away...
➤ I was disturbed by the movements of both of you and wanted to change to a quieter place.
➤ Being frightened by this "big scene", afraid of being hurt by the innocent, so hurry up and stay away.
There are also individual cats who may rush up, attack your partner, or urinate on the bed and swear sovereignty.
However, this is not because of jealousy/revenge/"protecting the master", but instinctive resource protection, protecting the territory (room, bed) that belongs to him in daily life + the shoveling owner who belongs to him (providers of eating, drinking and having fun).
Just imagine, if the cat is usually staying in the bed, and suddenly the bed is occupied by a person with a strange smell!
The shoveler who always sticks to him is not paying attention to him anymore, and even the cat bowl is empty is not satisfied!
This may make the cat feel restless and stressed, which will lead to excessive marking and behavioral problems.
How are the performances of dogs differently?
Animal behaviorist Rest believes that many of the strange behaviors that dogs exhibit in getting along with humans are derived from jealousy. For a dog, when you show love to another person/dog, or even a stuffed toy, the dog will realize and show jealousy.
This jealousy may be due to their feeling that you don’t bring it to play the game and want to join it; they feel the intimacy between you, feel ignored, and want to attract your attention.
It may also be that you are in danger and try to dissuade you and protect you.
If your intimacy is not disturbed by this, there is no need to make changes.
If you are troubled, you can consider:
✔ Ensure that the cat has sufficient resources and use snacks toys to divert attention
✔ Play with the cat in advance and consume your energy
✔ Let your partner interact with the cat more often and establish an intimate relationship
✔ Daily training for the cat not to go to bed/can be alone in the living room
✔ Go with him, anyway, he is only curious for a while~
PS: If the cat is used to staying in the bedroom, it is best not to deliberately drive him out of the bedroom at this time, so as not to cause further interference, such as keeping calling and tying doors.
