Do you know why cats like fish? Why are cats not afraid of being stung when eating fish?

Cat (scientific name: Felinae), a feline, is a pet widely used by families all over the world.

Cat, with round head, short face, five fingers on the forelimbs, four toes on the hind limbs, and sharp and curved claws on the toes, is flexible, nocturnal, agile and good at jumping. Most of them climb trees and hunt other animals by ambush. Cats are distributed all over the world (there are no wild species except Antarctica).

We all know that cats like to eat fish best, but when it comes to why cats like to eat fish, we may have a little knowledge. In fact, cats like to eat fish because fish can supplement taurine and enhance night vision, and cats especially like the taste of fish. And cats are not afraid of being stung when eating fish, but there are ways to prevent being stung.

First, the reason why cats like to eat fish

1. Taurine supplement

Cats are nocturnal animals. Their eyes can see clearly at night. If taurine is lacking in the body, cats will go blind at night. Fish is rich in taurine, which is necessary for cats to survive.

I like the taste of fish.

But the main reason why cats like to eat fish is the taste of fish. Although we humans smell bad, the fishy smell is quite attractive to cats, so cats will become particularly irritable and meow once they smell the fishy smell.

Second, the reason why cats are not afraid of stinging when eating fish

1. The tongue is prickly.

As for why cats are not afraid of fishbones when eating fish, they are not afraid, but are better at dealing with fishbones. Cats will get stuck in their throats when eating fish, so they will be more careful when eating fish and lick it clean. This is because the barb on the cat's tongue is thick, and the meat on the fishbone can be scraped off bit by bit.

2, can vomit nausea.

Even if a cat is accidentally stuck by a fishbone, it can take out the stuck fishbone through nausea and vomiting. However, if you are not careful, the cat will still be stabbed by fishbone, and the cat is very afraid of fishbone, because once stabbed, it may become inflamed, leading to the deterioration of the wound. If it does not heal all the time, it may be fatal.
