Cats inherit master's habits

Cats are a type of pet that is very close to each family, so close that they will inherit both good and bad habits and change to adapt to the lifestyle of the owner.

A recent study shows the profound effect of owners on foster cats. While genetics explains some aspects of personality and behavior, a clear living environment is also an important play factor.

The study focuses on the impact of human presence on the daily activities of cats. Scientists who follow 2 groups of cats are entitled to the same food and medical care regimes of experts at the Veterinary Behavior Research Institute.

The type of cat that learns from the owner is very fast.

The first group lives in small houses but is closer to the owner, while the second group lives in large apartments but is kept outside at night.

Over time, cats in the first group reflect the lives of the owners through the habit of eating, sleeping, and acting equally surprisingly. The children in the second group tend to love nightlife with acts like wild cats.

'The cat is an intelligent species with long-term memory , ' said Jane Brunt, the cat research board executive, on Discovery. 'They observe and learn from us every day, demonstrating that they know where to store food, what time to eat, how to open the closed door and where to eat and to go to the toilet. It is interesting to hear stories in the bathrooms of many families, there is a litter box for cats when the owner is using the toilet '.

Professor Piccione of the Department of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Messina also points out that the amount of cat food is linked to the amount of food eaten by the owner, which explains the reasons for obesity among cats and owners are often similar. Another study also showed that cats' arrogant, sociable, shy, calm, easy-going, curious, curious, and trustworthy features match the personality of the breeder.

People are role models for their cats. But Brunt thinks the opposite is also true when many people try to change their schedules to fit their pets, such as getting up early to look after them.

'I also think we can learn a lot from cats,' she added. 'When they sit on their lap, gently and lovingly with a gentle breath, the slightly closed eyes are the time when I feel a sense of serenity as a lesson of peace, meditation in the soul that is difficult for humans. have been'.
