The cats<\/b> They are considered pets postmodernists<\/b> par excellence, since they are chosen by humans for their great independence<\/b> and for its enormous intelligence,<\/b> qualities that make him surpass his reputation for being unsociable<\/b> and treacherous, ending up being tender, affectionate and playful.
Those who own cats seek to understand them by trying to know everything they want and need.
To achieve this, special attention is paid to their behavior and their way of communicating, which helps us understand them and be able to provide them with what they need. need and demand.<\/b>
Science, through research and repeated experiences has achieved decipher many features <\/b>and peculiarities of cats, some of which we will describe.
The first curiosity<\/b> resides in his phylogenetic origin<\/b> since cats appeared on Earth before the dogs <\/b>and many other animals that became domesticated, although felines were one of the last animals to be domesticated.
Going back in history Ancient Egypt <\/b>and cats, we know that they adored them<\/b>, creating a divinity, Goddess Bastet,<\/b> with a cat face.
On the other hand, when the cat died in Ancient Egypt, all the members of the family they plucked their eyebrows<\/b> in token of duel.<\/b>
Cats are characterized by their meows,<\/b> sometimes very intense and even annoying.
Cats can change the pitch of your meow<\/b> to get what they want, even imitating a baby's cry <\/b>who have been observed to be successful in their claims.
The curious thing is that the adult cat only meows to communicate with human beings<\/b>.
A cat's nose <\/b>It has 19 million nerve endings, which puts it at a level of superiority compared to humans who only have 5 million.
On the other hand, felines, curiously, They have no taste buds for sweet foods<\/b>Cats don't perceive sweetness. The cat's brain<\/b> It is 90% similar to that of humans, in fact, we have more similarities with cats than with dogs.
Although one might believe that dogs have a greater capacity to learn certain tricks or skills and remember them, Cats have a better long-term memory than dogs,<\/b> especially when it comes to learning.
It's common to see cats wandering around at night on roofs, walls, and even trees. We wonder how they manage to reach these places, given the reality that proves these animals are actually safe. They can jump up to 6 times their body length. <\/b>
The cat is a "Mister"<\/b> with the name written in capital letters and with all the letters that, from time to time, renews his trust in us<\/b> mortgaging, in the process, our affection. We take the dog with us. The cat goes with us through life and generally takes us<\/b>.
It acts as if it had two cerebral hemispheres divided by a door, with one of them functioning as domestic cat<\/b>, like a cuddly kitten, and there he behaves as if he were our own child. And, although it's hard for us to teach him even the simplest tricks, he is not stupid<\/b>, or is it that he doesn't want to, does not feel subdued<\/b>, nor is he interested in being so, but rather He only cares about loving us and letting himself be loved.<\/b>
