Since time immemorial, cats have been credited with various mystical abilities.
In particular, there is an opinion that cats can sense the death of their owners. We tell you how science explains this.
How a cat senses the death of its owner
There are two theories about this. The first is that cats understand that a person is dying by smell.
Cats are known to have a much better sense of smell than humans. Cats are able to recognize substances secreted by the body of a seriously ill person.
According to the second theory, cats simply notice changes in their owner's behavior.
For example, a person gets seriously ill and takes to his bed. The cat will not only notice this, he will sit by his owner's bedside for days.
