Cats love affection and gladly accept it from their beloved owner, however, there are places on the pet’s body that you should not touch – the animal will be unpleasant from such touches. Experts warn that a cat can respond with a bite to touching these places, the Belnovosti portal writes.
First of all, the “dangerous” place in a cat is the stomach. This is the most vulnerable part. Any animal intuitively knows that if it is wounded in the stomach, it can die. So if a pet still allows a person to stroke his stomach, then this is the highest degree of trust, but you still shouldn’t abuse it.
No need to touch the pads on the paws, they are quite sensitive. Also a sensitive place is the tail, it has a lot of peripheral nerves and capillaries and impolite handling of the tail will be unpleasant for the pet.
Another vulnerable spot is the nose, which is covered with sensitive skin, which can also be unpleasant to touch. Even worse, if a person’s hands smell of perfume or other smells that irritate a cat. And finally, ears covered with a lot of nerve endings – you should not tug or pull them if you do not want your pet to bite you.
