In the past, cats' airplane ears were hiding themselves and hunting. Now most of the time it happens when playing with shovel officials. It's easy to think of toys or owners as imaginary enemies, and bend down with your eyes wide open to expose the ears of the plane. Or when a cat is frightened and shows fear, it will also have airplane ears.
When the kitten is very angry, it will also have the phenomenon of airplane ears. For example, when a kitten meets a similar person she doesn't like or is pressed by a shovel officer to do something she doesn't like, such as taking a shower and brushing her teeth, the plane ear at this time just tells the owner that she is angry and needs to be coaxed.
When a cat has airplane ears, it usually means that the cat is in a state of tension. It may be threatening to fight back, or it may be observing every move of its prey, ready to attack at any time, or it may be forced to be vigilant and want to escape at any time.
Cats have airplane ears.
1, hunting instinct
Cats have lived in the wild since ancient times. When they lie in ambush and try to sneak up on their prey, their protruding ears may reveal their whereabouts, so the cat's ears will fall backwards and appear plane ears.
2. Collect the surrounding sounds
There are many fine hairs on the edge of the cat's ear and the inside of the outer auricle. These Mao Mao are not decorations, which are of great help to cats' hearing. They can help cats feel subtle vibrations and collect and analyze the source and intensity of sound.
Step 3 feel scared
Cats feel nervous and scared when they see something that threatens them. They will stare at what scares them and lean back at the same time. Their ears will become airplane ears to monitor their surroundings and sometimes explode.
