I saw a post online and laughed out loud in the middle of the night.
A netizen raised a tabby cat, which he bought home for 20 yuan in the night market.
The cats have always been kept indoors. Although they are pastoral cats, they have never had the experience of living outside.
When netizens returned to their hometown, they were worried that the cat was unhappy at home alone, so they drove back to their hometown with the tabby cat.
As a result, something that surprised him happened.
Since the tabby cat came to his hometown in the countryside, it seemed that the suppressed "blood memory" in his body was completely awakened.
This is not a cat, it is even more fierce than a dog.
has become the "hegemon" in the hometown village.
What is the most common operation of this cat?
On the first day after returning to his hometown, he took a dying mouse and ran to him, then threw the mouse onto the sofa with a proud look on his face, turned around and walked away.
The back seemed to be saying, "Too shoveling, this is the country that this cat has built for you."
Only the cat shoveler's bursting mentality and frightened screams were left.
After living in my hometown for a week, mice, insects, birds, and even some leaves near my home will arouse the cat's curiosity.
All kinds of strange things were taken to the shoveler by the cat.
In fact, cats' behavior of "holding things" is not only reflected in pastoral cats, but also in pet cats.
Why do cats "carry things" for the shoveling owner?
Here, let’s analyze the reasons for you.
1. Hunting psychology
In the subconscious of cats, they view the shoveling owner in this way:
"Although the shoveling owner gives me food every day, he may not be able to hunt."
And the cat puts the captured prey in front of the shoveler, on the one hand, to show off their achievements, and on the other hand, to hope that the shoveler will learn the skills of "hunting".
When the cat mother gets along with the kitten, the cat mother will set an example and teach the kitten various life skills.
For example: shoveling poop, eating, hunting.
Just like some kittens who leave their mother cats at birth, they don’t even use cat litter boxes for a long time.
The psychology of cat hunting leads to them playing the role of "cat mother".
2. It is a "gift" for the shoveler
Many times, the mentality of a cat is the same as that of a dog, and it has a "selling for credit" mentality.
The cat caught the prey, took something they thought was interesting and ran to the owner. His arrogant expression was to seek credit from the shoveler.
Just like when you train a dog, throw the ball away and the dog will bring it to you.
And the snack reward you give to your dog is the motivation for the dog's attitude towards seeking credit. The same goes for
cats.
They bring you something, hoping to get snacks or some rewards from you.
3. What kind of cats are more willing to hold things for the shoveling owner?
must be those cats who usually interact with the shoveler.
If you often tease cats during the process of raising cats, and interact with the cats.
For example: the activities of losing balls and picking up balls, the behavior of teasing cats.
These interactions will make the cat's subconscious develop a "playing mentality".
Once the cats are relaxed, they will find ways to attract the attention of the shovelers.
The purpose of picking up things is to hope that the shoveler will interact with it.
However, I still recommend that the cat shoveler not reward the cat at this time.
If cats develop this mentality, they will become more and more powerful and bring all kinds of strange things to you.
