우리는 병이 났을 때 고양이에게 알릴 수 있습니까?

Cats and their owners often have remarkable bonds. It may sound farfetched to outsiders, but owners often insist their beloved cats ‘know’ when they are ill and behave differently around them as a result.

It turns out, it may not be a fantasy after all. Oscar, a cat that resides at Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Centre in Rhode Island in the United States, gained fame by apparently predicting the deaths of twenty-five residents of the home. Oscar, a generally aloof cat, has been known to all of a sudden curl up affectionately against certain elderly men and women, who pass away shortly afterwards.

According the a number of animal behaviour experts, Oscar is probably reacting to chemicals given off by the bodies of the ill and dying, rather than manifesting psychic powers. It is theorised, biochemical signals are released as the body shuts down, perceptible to cats and dogs before we are able to discern a change.

Numerous stories exist of dogs and cats alerting their owners to previously unknown cancerous growths by obsessive sniffing or otherwise unusual expressions around a part of their owner’s body. Cats have senses far beyond human capabilities – their sense of smell is fourteen times stronger than ours – enabling them to potentially detect illness through their enhanced sensory abilities.

Even when impacted by less serious ailments, it is likely cats are able to some extent discern a difference in the state of health of their owners. Independent of potential chemical signals, pets are keen observers of human behaviour. The way the ill person acts and the manner others in the family behave towards them may provide clues as to their weakened state.

I have a 16 year old torte, she always knows when me or my
husband are sick. She is the smartest cat I have ever seen.
Her last vet visited the vet said her creation level was up.
So he put her on special cat food for her kidneys. I am really scared, but she is acting the same and eating and drinking. She is an indoor cat. Any suggestion or something I should watch for. Thank you Linda Turman

I agree! My 18 yr old black cat knew that I had heat exhaustion for a week because she laid next to me (which she never does) until I felt better and as soon as I did, she stopped. It’s quite remarkable that they are aware of when we are not feeling well!

I have leukemia and my normally independent Ragdoll, Moses, stays by my side, almost all day! It is so comforting to have him by my side :-)

아주 좋은 기사. 최근에 나는 매우 아팠고, 불행하게도 토하고 있었다. 그리고 나의 고양이가 나를 내버려 두지 않기 때문에 나는 문제를 가지고 있었다. 그는 me and 거리며 내 허리에 앉고 발로 나를 두 드렸습니다. 나는 그것이 당시에 무엇인지 몰랐다. 그러나 그가 그것을 걱정할 가능성이있는 것처럼 조금 뒤돌아 보았다. 내 말은, 명백한 우울함에 앉아 있었고 엄마가 나를 도와 준 바로 뒤에 있었기 때문에 뭔가 잘못되었다는 것을 쉽게 알 수있었습니다. Ahh 고양이는 정말로 가장 귀여웠다.

I have 2 cats and for the last year they seem to pick out where my pain is & lay there. Lately they take turns laying back to back with me even thou it's warm weather & they're hot. My doctor thinks i'm nuts. He gave me a chest x ray last yr & nothing showed. Saw him the other day & didn't say anything but I'm worried now. My 7 yr old knows when I have to pee & won't stop meowing til I stop & go. She walks me to the bathroom.

I had the Flu for 6 weeks.Spent most of the time in bed. My cat, Gus would hug up to me for most of the time. It certainly seems he knew something was not right.
