More and more families like some pets at home, now the cat loved degree is becoming more and more big, there are a pair of intense big eyes, and we also often use meow star people to call them, is a particularly lovely animals, but even so lovely they are still someone called stupid cat directly, but they are really stupid cat?
Keeping a cat at home can also catch mice for us. After keeping it for a long time, we will find that the cat will often do something unexpected, which is very similar to human behavior. We also have to sigh that the intelligence of a cat is equivalent to how old is a person? In fact, the internal structure of the cat brain and the human brain is the same, the only difference is that the human brain neocortex is extremely developed, is the animal brain can not be compared.
For cats, they are relying on visual, smell, and mouth to know things around, since birth is half a year later, the cat’s intelligence quotient (IQ) can be equivalent to one half of one year of age, after its cognitive ability won’t development, but the cat’s body after two years of age, with 7 times in the growth of human growth, that is their one year the human equivalent of seven years. So the average cat’s IQ is about the same as that of a 1 to 2 year old child, but it varies from cat to cat, and if a cat has undergone certain training, its IQ will be higher than before. But it is because their intelligence is only so high that cats are as pure and lovely as babies. By night, the cat has begun to show off its mouse catching skills, with a level of vigilance that we humans can never compare with.
Although their intelligence is not high, but they can use other skills, for example, they use smell to distinguish their owners and strangers, it is said that the intelligence of mice can reach the human eight years old, so the intelligence of cats is not compared with small mice. But his mobility and other things are really good. We can’t judge a cat just by its IQ. They’re pretty smart.
