Cats are a common pet for people. In fact, they also have a lot of "secrets". Today, let's talk about some trivial knowledge about cats. If you don't know these things, just keep them. Let's see how much you know. Bar!
1. "Cats are born to love fish" is false. The ancestors of European domestic cats are African lynxes, and the ancestors of Asian domestic cats are Indian desert cats.
Therefore, for the ancestors of cats, the living environment was not rich in water resources. It can be seen that the ancestors of cats may not eat fish.
2. Cats are not naturally aloof. In fact, most cats have very rich inner emotions, and they also like the company of their owners and their owners accompanying them. However, sometimes cats’ expressions are not so direct.
3. It is not just dogs that carry rabies virus . Cats can also carry rabies virus, so it is really important to vaccinate cats regularly. If you are bitten by a cat, to avoid accidents, you can seek medical treatment and follow the doctor's advice.
4. Cats mate for a very short time. They are "quick shooters" and can finish the matter in a few seconds. However, in order to increase the chance of conception, they will often mate multiple times, which is completely different from dogs.
5. Female cats can be pregnant with several male cats’ children at the same time, so the kittens in the same litter may have different colors.
6, It is easy for cats to climb up trees but difficult to get down. This is because the structure of the cat’s claws determines that it can only get down from the tree in the same posture. However, many young cats lack experience and often cannot get down from the tree.
7. Cats love to lick their fur. In fact, this is not only caused by boredom. Cats have certain barbs on their tongues. Licking their own fur can be equivalent to self-cleaning, so this is why cats can often keep their fur clean.
8. Not all cats do not need to be walked. Some cats are naturally energetic and need to go out for a walk. They can also be trained like dogs, such as Siamese cat and Maine Coon cat , as long as they are paired with snacks. As a reward, skills such as shaking hands and picking up balls can be learned.
9, Cats have 230 bones in their bodies, 24 more than humans. This is why cats’ bodies are so soft.
10. Although cats are carnivores, they cannot eat only meat as their staple food, otherwise it will lead to nutritional imbalance.
