Cats live side by side with humans for a long time.
Moreover, there are many myths about these animals.
But there are some misconceptions about cats that we need to stop believing.
They purr with happiness
Cats can purr for a variety of reasons. In some cases, it actually means that the pet is happy.
However, it can also be related to other emotions. For example, cats purr when they are scared or stressed.
This may also be due to the furry friend's poor health.
They can drink a lot of milk
Many people believe that milk is a great treat for their pet.
But you shouldn't give this product to cats too often.
As cats age, the number of enzymes that can break down milk sugar decreases in their bodies.
As a result, the animal may develop lactose intolerance or other unpleasant symptoms.
They can't be trained.
This is another misconception. Cats can be trained to perform certain commands.
Just keep in mind that training them is not as easy as training dogs.
However, with the right approach and regular training, the furry one can learn to perform some actions.
Earlier we wrote about why dogs curl up into a ball while sleeping.
