Cats love to fool their owners by pretending to be asleep.

They lie with their eyes closed and pretend to sleep, but in reality they are in control of the situation.

One of the simplest ways will help owners quickly understand whether their pet is actually sleeping.

What does a cat's nose have to do with it?

Experienced cat lovers know that a cat's nose can tell a lot about it.

It will also tell you whether your pet is actually sleeping or pretending to be.

The cat's nose is the only place not covered with hair, apart from the heels.

It is through its wet surface that excess heat is released, which allows the cat's body not to overheat.

When a cat falls asleep, brain processes slow down, so the body does not need to wet the nose.

Therefore, a sleeping cat's nose will always be dry, but if it's pretending to be, it will be wet.

It was previously reported whether it is possible to leave a cat alone at home for several days .
