Why do cats sniff human breath: the reasons are very different
One of the oddities of cats is the habit of sniffing human breath. This happens not only after the owner swallows the calming drops that cats go crazy for.
You might think that animals are only interested in what their owner ate or drank, but this is not true.
Experts explained what is causing this and how to react to your pet's behavior.
Reasons
1. Animals get to know the world largely through smells. Anything unfamiliar causes stress and tension in cats.
Therefore, cats can combat stress in this way by sniffing a person, as they say, from head to toe.
2. Many people believe in the ability of cats to identify diseases and treat them. The animals do this by focusing on elevated temperatures and smells.
It is believed that due to chemical changes in the human body, cats can even detect cancer and other serious diseases.
3. Of course, we must not forget that the person ate something tasty and the smell of food awakened the cat’s appetite.
Also, don't forget about the curiosity of pets, who, out of boredom or simply out of interest, like to study everything new and unexplored.
Therefore, it can be considered that the cat's desire to sniff a person, almost looking straight into his mouth, is caused only by good intentions.
