Cats and Learned Behavior
May 13th, 2008
Not all cats are scardey cats. At least not when they start out. Our big boy Boris never was overly afraid of things like trucks driving by or even the vacuum cleaner running. He would just lie there looking around like he was saying, ‘what the heck?’ Yet he never got up to run and hide.
Our other three cats always scurry and hide as soon as the slightest noise starts to spook them. Well, we have noticed that Boris would get caught up in that hurry to leave the room along with the girls. Because of them he has now learned to hide at a loud noise that would not have bothered him before. Thanks a lot girls! (To be honest I do have to say he learned how to be afraid of kids all on his own.)
