The cat first settled in a man's house 12 thousand years ago.
More than 600 million cats live in the world now. This means that there is one cat for every 12 people.
We have lived with them under the same roof for many centuries and have become very close. What do you think, if cats controlled us, we would have guessed about it, or not?
It turns out that cats are creepy manipulators and turn us around as they want.
1. We mistakenly believe that they are interested in us, but they really are not at all
Scientists at the University of Tokyo have proven that cats recognize the voice of the owner. This is how they respond to the voice of the owner - half turn their heads away, a third lead with their ears, and from the point of view of scientists, these are signs of ignorance. And only a tenth of them purr or wag their tail, which means showing attention and "holding the conversation."
What do we do when someone does not notice us and our speech, we call out to him again and again, pay him even more attention, focus our attention on him, trying to get an answer.
In other words, cats deliberately do not respond to your speech, do not notice and ignore you.
2. Cats know how to purr in a special way
Everyone who has a cat in the house knows that when a pet wants to eat, he meows so that you have no chance not to feed the cat.
A researcher at the University of Sussex herself is the owner of the cat, she decided to find out why she cannot resist the piercing, annoying meow of her cat and every morning, neither light nor dawn is forced to get out of bed and feed her pet.
It turned out that this special "meow" which is repeated by a hungry cat consists of sounds of high and low frequency, high and low notes. She came to the conclusion that the high-frequency meow is the same notes as the crying of a child.
The low-frequency meow was not perceived by the research volunteers as demanding, annoying, and impossible to ignore.
3. Your cat can infect you with parasites that affect your brain and your behavior
Studies have shown that people infected with Toxoplasma have a slower reaction, and a specific study showed that infected drivers are 2, 6 times more likely to get into traffic accidents.
The researcher claims that parasites alter the interaction between neurons in the brain and this affects men and women differently. Men are more risky and more likely to break the rules, while women are more open and warm in communication. Curiously, when the research results were made public, the scientist received many letters from men asking them to infect their girls.
