Hello and welcome back to life's Biggest Question
I am sure if you have been around a cat, or been around the internet, you'll know that most cats don't
play well with water.
play well with water.
Cats like drinking running water, but why don't like being submerged dogs seem to love going for a swim, so why don't cats?
Well.. dogs and cats have different fur while cat hair gets wet when it rains and the cats is outside it behaves very differently while cat hair gets wet when it rains and the cat is outside, it behaves very differently when it is totally submerged .
When cats get totally wet, like fall in the bath wet,their fur clogs up and weighs them down and they don't like the way that feels,it doesn't feel natural to them.
Unlike dogs, they can't shake the water out easily.While it is true that's cats like being clean, they spend hours licking themselves to maintain their fur.
Unlike us, they don't use water to clean their rough tongues, paws and saliva are all they need to keep themselves sanitary and tidy. it is likely that cats view water as the opposite of clean , too as we know , animals like dogs and cats have a more refined sense of smell like we humans the water that comes from our taps and into our baths is filled with chemicals that are safe to drink and reasonably odorless to us but not to cats
They do not want that whiff all over their preened coats. Cats are curious creatures and they may like to stick a paw in some water before deciding they would rather keep their distance or they may play with a stream of running water as they're captivated by its movement
but g generally speaking they will not willing to submerge themselves it is actually a bit of a myth to say that all cats hate water because that is not the case. Sure your house cat may not be down with the bath that is because the bathtub is a bit of an unnatural, daunting situation to be faced with also house cats are generally living in room temperature conditions big cats on the , like jaguars lions and tigers tend to live in warmer climates
big cats on the wild like jaguars lions and tigers tend to live in warmer climates and willingly go into the water to cool off of course in a lot of places watering holes mean food and big cats will happily swim to get
but these cats are unlike domestic, living in different climates environment and without the need to swim while to most domestic cats, large bodies of water are daunting, some cats actually don't mind being bathed it depends on their personas and their trust in their owner if a cat is covered in a thick substance like mud or oil it is easier to try and wash them than wait for them to clean themselves although most cats may not be down for this level of nurture
as we know they're independent so that is a little summary as to why some cats hate water
