Their Cute Appearance Is Deceiving – 17 Gifs
The appearance can be deceiving – no matter how innocent and harmless your cat looks, their genetic software makes them hunters, one of those who have no mercy and do not take prisoners. Their ancestors may found it appropriate to replace the wilderness for a relatively good home life, but do not be fooled – when their hunting instincts awake or if they're not satisfied with home conditions, your cats will return to their roots and won't be that cute and cuddly.

Even the most docile domestic cat remains essentially wild, because their bodies are made for hunting and attacking, rather than for playing (they can enjoy playing and cuddling only if their bellies are full). Although the domestication somewhat changed the way in which the cat is experiencing the world (the human-cat households where people have taken on the role of the mother, for example), just scratch the surface of the cats' psyche and the evidence of an embodied, profound legacy of their ancestors becomes immediately visible.

When a cat crosses the threshold, to go out, it is transformed. It turns off the brain of a kitten that belongs to a man and activates the brain of a wild cat. Don't even try to change this behavior because, in the worst case scenario, your cat could run away from home (like a rebellious teenager) in order to find better environment for itself.

Among the most famous attributes of cats are their agility and natural talent for acrobatics – which certainly is an object of envy of every circus entertainer – both of which enable them to enter and exit the narrowest and most unusual places. Cats climb like monkeys, walk with a ballerina's grace, keep the balance easily and effortlessly and it is a champion in walking on a tightrope.
