Who is more attached to their owner – cats or dogs: a curious experiment
Japanese scientists conducted an interesting experiment, during which they were able to find out which domestic animals are more friendly towards people.
Researchers decided to test how cats and dogs would react to a person who refused to help their owner.
To do this, two strangers were invited into the room where the pet and its owner were located.
Further, according to the scenario, the owner had to turn to each of them for help.
At the same time, observation was made of how the cat and dog would react to the behavior of the stranger.
The essence of the experiment was that one of the strangers refused to help, and the second helped.
After this, the strangers had to treat the animals.
It turned out that for cats there was no particular difference who was giving them the treat - a helper or an ill-wisher.
Dogs turned out to be more selective in this regard.
According to scientists, dogs better understand and more accurately respond to mutual assistance or refusal to provide assistance.
