There has always been a saying about the death of cats in the older generation. Cats can predict their own death date. If they feel that they are dead, they will leave the house where they have lived for a long time and the owner who has raised them for a long time, and then find a place to die quietly.
Many shit shovel officers felt that the cat did not want to make himself sad because of its departure, so they left. However, some people refuted their opinions. Let's take a look at the reasons why the cat would leave the house and leave the shit shoveling officer before being seriously injured or dying.
01. The nature of cats
When cats live in the wild, they need to hunt for a living, and they will also become the hunting objects of other animals. However, they do not have a strong appearance, fierce attack power, and are animals at the lower end of the food chain. When they are injured or sick, they will choose to hide in a safe place and slowly recover in order to survive.
is like the last bet, give yourself a period of time, maybe you can use this time to avoid the enemy's body function and recover your health, or maybe the illness or injury is too serious and you just hide Where lives are lost. Domestic cats also retain this instinct. When they feel sick or weak, they hide under the table or bed, or in the cabinet, so that no one can find it.
02. Keep the last decent
I don’t know if you have noticed, unless it is a cat that has a traffic accident, or a stray cat eats poisonous food during the foraging process, Otherwise, we rarely see the cat's body in a conspicuous place outside...just like the old saying "a cat disappears when it dies".
They are animals that value decentness. Their proud self-esteem does not allow themselves to be seen embarrassed by others, so they often find a hidden place to hide themselves before they die , Disappeared from this world alone, without disturbing anyone.
03. Thoughts of Falling Leaves Returning to the Root
Cats lived in the wild before being domesticated by humans, and their nature yearning for natural freedom, just like the human thought of falling leaves returning to their roots, they want to return to the big Natural thoughts have also become stronger.
04. Do not want the owner to see the scene of their departure
They will worry about their body after death, which will bring trouble and crisis to the owner. I also don't want the owner to see the scene of his departure, for fear that the owner will be sad, and do not want the owner to face his own death, so he will choose to leave alone to find a place to die.
But some people say that the dog left before he died because he did not want the owner to see the scene of his departure, for the owner's consideration. Cats are naturally defensive. The reason they leave home when they are seriously ill or dying is because they can't even trust their owners. I always see this kind of remarks, and there are often accompanying sayings that cats are unfamiliar animals, no matter how many years you raise them, they are not as loyal as dogs, etc. I want to say that everything is alive , You know how good it is! It has nothing to do with whether it is a cat, a dog, or any animal. I believe that the shit shovel officer who really keeps cats will understand.
