Do cats see any dreams?

Almost all people see dreams, and some even remember them or write them down. But often the owners of furry pets ask themselves questions: "Do cats see dreams?", "Can they dream something?"

If you pay attention to a cat when it is resting, you will notice that the animal is not relaxed at all, but quite the opposite: the cat beats its tail, its ears move, it moves its paws and constantly twitches, perhaps even meowing or snorting.

Scientists say that such behavior of the animal is normal in sleep, because cats are actually also capable of seeing some dreams.

However, it is of course impossible to understand what the cat dreamed about.

Numerous studies conducted by scientists indicate that in a dream a cat experiences the moments that happened to it in reality.

Perhaps she was defending her own territory, or hunting, interacting with other animals, or trying to get her owner's attention.

Most likely, the animal's sleep depends on what the cat is experiencing, whether it is overcome by negative feelings, whether it is irritated or afraid of something. In this case, the sleep will certainly be restless.
