Nine Things You Should Know About Your Cats
Tuesday, May 7, 2013
Here are nine things to keep in mind if you own a cat. Readers Disgest has published these facts about your feline friends.
- Nose to nose greetings between cats are unusual but cats who know each other well but have been apart for a while feel safe enough to do this to confirm visual recognition and gain information about how the other cat is, where he has been and what he has been doing.
- Purring usually indicates that your cat is content but a deep purr could indicate illness.
- Cats retain their kitten vocal signals to communicate with humans but they usually use an adult repertoire of sounds to communicate with other cats.
- Like dogs, cats can also get sick and die from eating chocolate.
- Cats like to nap rather than sleep. When in a deep sleep, they do tend to dream like we do.
- Cats blink and narrow their eyes when they make eye contact. To make friends with an unfamiliar cat, blink and look away when you catch his eyes.
- Cats cannot understand punishment as humans do. They must be praised and rewarded for good behavior.
- Giving your cat a strip of raw meat to chew on everyday will keep his teeth and gums in good condition. Make sure that the meat is deboned.
- Cats can tolerate heat very well but never leave them in the car with the windows rolled up on a hot day!
