There are many fairy tales and outright fables about cats. Scientists and experts are trying, and they are happy to share new discoveries.
For example, it is generally accepted that cats are by nature truly selfish, but at the same time there is an opinion that pets miss their owners when they are not at home.
Let's try to figure out what is true and what is not.
Master or territory?
It is believed that cats are attached not so much to people as to their habitat. But experts say that the norm for a cat is safety.
And if the pet feels safe next to a person, then it will be active in a new place. And if not, then it will conflict even in "its" apartment.
Are cats bored?
It has been noted that there are breeds that are oriented towards contact with people and more independent pets. Siamese, sphinxes and rexes get bored more than others. And British and Siberian cats tolerate loneliness easier than other breeds.
Sold for food?
This is also a mistake, the author of which is a person. When a person takes a pet into the house, he must assume responsibility for the animal.
But at the same time, he should not allow the cat to manipulate him. And food in this regard should not be a lever.
First of all, you need to learn to understand your pet's needs and show love for it.
