As human beings; We remember the first cat we fed or played with because we have a long and short-term memory.
But in cats, it's different. Short-term cat memory
A 2015 study suggests that many animals do not have short-term memory.
Researchers tested 25 animal species from dolphins to bees and found that the average short-term memory period was just 27 seconds.
Only the dogs' memory was two minutes longer. How does your cat remember knowing you?
Cats and other animals use associative memory to store information that helps them survive.
This means remembering the places where they get food and shelter. For example:
You will run to the kitchen when you hear the sound of the can opener even if it is not her normal feeding time for it;
This associative memory is how your cat remembers you.
Your cat may not remember certain events with you, but it will connect you with food, shelter and love.
Providing these three important things makes you unforgettable when your cat cats miss their owners
Many animal behavior researchers believe that cats miss their owners
But the ways in which they show this may not be clear to us often show cats that are missing their owner by spending their need outside the litter box in addition to the exposure of the cat to tension and this may inflame the skin of the wall of her bladder and irritation due to stress hormones in her blood in another study conducted by the researchers tried to examine the strength of the bond between breeders and cats by testing 20 cats with their breeders The study concluded that cats were more loud when their owner left the room than when a stranger left the feed.
Obviously, it's hard to say for sure how long cats have been remembering, but certainly cats have been living with humans for thousands of years, and they've certainly developed an attachment behavior to their breeders and learned to understand us and the ways we communicate.
