It is rare that a cat can be called brave, since in general the animal is characterized by cautious behavior.
Some pets are good at hiding when strangers appear in the house because they are wary of people they don't know.
What are the main fears for cats?
Vacuum cleaner
Many owners know how much their pets do not like a regular vacuum cleaner. The equipment causes mistrust and fear in them. Some cats can even start a fight with the vacuum cleaner.
An interesting fact is that other fairly large and loud objects (cars, coffee grinders, food processors) do not frighten them.
Cucumbers
If you have long cucumbers, which are often brought to stores in winter, then the cat is unlikely to like them. If, for example, the cat unexpectedly encounters the vegetable, then it will feel uneasy.
Experts believe that the shape and appearance of the vegetable reminds them of snakes, with which cats have a complicated relationship.
Mirrors
It is worth noting that the mirror causes fear only at first. After the animal gets used to the object, it will stop being frightening.
Few people suspect that cats simply do not recognize themselves in the reflection. They believe that there is another suspicious cat in the room with whom they will have to compete for territory and resources.
