Everyone knows the ability of cats to guess the weather, which has been elevated to the rank of folk signs for centuries.

But can you trust what your pet “predicts”? After all, you really want to know how he does it without the weather forecasters’ predictions.

In this case, experts recommend being attentive and observant, and then deciphering the cat's predictions will not be difficult.

Warming forecast

In this case, the pets stretch sweetly, blissfully bending into an arc.

If a sharp change in the weather towards an increase in temperature is expected, the cat may arch and lie sleepily in a semicircle.

If the pet is stretched out and lies straight as a string, this means sunny and hot weather. In this case, cats like to roll around with their stomachs up, wherever they want.

An unconditional warming and heat will occur if the cat goes to sleep in the shade or lies down on the cool tiled floor in the bathroom.

Cold snap forecast

In this case, it is even easier than with warming. The pet will look for the warmest place - on the heating radiators, under the heated towel rail or near the working oven.

In other cases, the cat will sleep curled up and hiding its nose. This sign has been proven for centuries.

Rain forecast

It has been noticed that before it rains, cats start drinking more than usual.

It is not clear what the connection is, but a cat also licks its tail and ears before it rains, but if your pet sneezes in dry weather, it is better to take an umbrella with you if you are going for a walk.
