There is an opinion that cats know when their owners feel sad or suffer.

This point of view seems mystical, but is it really so wrong?

The second part of our material answered this question.

As felinologists have discovered, cats understand their owners' sadness very well, but they react to it and interpret it in a way that is far different from how people do.

However, a cat is able to understand our state of mind from our behavior.

Thus, a person under stress changes their body movements, the timbre of their voice sounds different. Often, an upset person moves little.

A cat uses its hearing and vision to read this type of information.

The pet strives to return the situation to its previous, calm and familiar course, and accordingly, can begin to console its owner in ways available to it.

Earlier we talked about why a cat licks its owner’s face.
