This is my daughter Furby, she's a Persian Chinchilla girl. In 2 months, she'll be 1 years old! She likes Sailor Moon and eating tasty meats. Furby was born in Somerset which is about 250km from London, it took me about 8 hours in the car to bring her back. Here's our first selfie together ! Below is her show time!

这是我的可爱女儿Furby, 她是金吉拉波斯的女孩子。还有差不多2个月她就满1岁了。她喜欢美少女战士和吃肉肉。她出生在离伦敦250公里Summer Somerset,我把她接回伦敦的时候花了8个小时车程,这是我刚刚接到她的照片。Our first selfie。 下面是她秀颜值时间。

At home, have you ever noticed your Furry friend display some alien tendencies? Have you ever doubted their alien like personality? Actually, it's just them teaching you their strange "cat logics".

在家里,你有没有发现你的毛绒伙伴有一些独特的外星球行为?你有没有非常怀疑过它们的外星球行为呢?
其实那是猫猫们在教你它们奇妙的“猫逻辑”。

Cat Logic No.1 - A Cats Lie

Just like a human, Furby loves to lie down..

喵逻辑NO.1 猫咪躺
Furby像人类一样仰着躺下来

Imgur

Cats lie down because they are telling you they love you. The underside belly is the most vulnerable and tender part of their body. By lying down and letting you see and touch their belly, they are being open to you, telling you that they trust you.

猫咪喜欢仰着躺其实是在对主人说“我爱你”。肚子是一个猫咪全身毛皮最薄最脆弱的地方,所以如果它愿意躺下来把自己的小肚肚给你看,并且示意你去摸摸它,那就证明猫咪非常相信你,也代表猫咪非常放心和愉悦。

Cat Logic No.2

Furby loves to climb on top of things, chairs and iPads. Basically things that I use frequently. She does this because these frequently used objects have a strong smell of their owner, which for a newly arrived little kitten, gives a lot of security.

喵逻辑NO.2
Furby喜欢爬在我常常坐的凳子上或者我经常用的Ipad上,因为这些物品上门会有主人浓烈的味道,这会让很小就来到人类家里的猫猫非常有安全感。

Cat Logic No.3 - Computer Keyboard

喵逻辑NO.3 电脑键盘猫

Imgur

Furby loves to come sit on the computer keyboard or sit infront of the computer monitor when my attention is not on her. The only thing I can do is to pick her up and pet her, give her a good rub and massage. Actually, even when i'm not around, she loves to go on the computer and write some articles too. (Looks like Furby is very suited to using steemit, maybe when she is older she'll set up her own account and post some cat wisdom..) Sometimes when i'm not at home, Furby will use skype to initiate a video call or send some messages to me.

Furby最喜欢的事情就是在我很专注用电脑的时候,趴在我的键盘上或者站在我的屏幕前面,让我没办法在继续下去,只好抱起来拍拍她,给Furby做一做马杀鸡。其实在我不在的时候,她也会在我的电脑上帮我创作一些文章(看来爱写作的Furby很适合Steemit这个平台呢,等她再长大一些,就可以来这个平台上分享文章了)有时候当我保留Skype的页面然后出门去了,她还会拨响Skype找我视频或者给我发一些猫语言。

This is Furby's essay in the making

这是Furby发表过的论文

So, Furby's cat logic has taught us a few things :

  1. Cats like keyboards and computers because of their warmth. Cats body temperatures are slightly higher than humans at around 38-39 degree's C. Because of their higher body temperature, cats are more sensitive to changes in heat and, they are not that good at adapting to temperature change. So, they like to find warm places to rub and grind against. Kind of like girls and their heat patches.
  2. Cat's second logic is of course all about getting the attention of their owner. Raising a cat from a young age usually after they are weaned (8-12 weeks) means that they have a big reliance on you as an owner from a young age. Even though cats are known for being independent, they still require your attention much of the time. So, when they see you fixate your attention at a screen for so long, they want to steer that attention towards them. Acknowledging them and giving them a good petting will make them very happy indeed.
  3. Because the keys on a keyboard move quickly as you type, to a cat, it looks like a game! They are sensitive to things like the sounds the keyboard make. For instance, some cats really love chasing laser pens, or toy mice that make noise. Cats probably consider these noises to be like the ones little critters make, and they have an insatiable instinct to catch them. If you spend some time playing with your cats when they get this urge, it'll save you potentially damaging your computer!

Cats are unable to understand keyboards just like humans are unable to understand the universe. Humans will explore the world and solve problems to get a sense of achievement and existence. In the same way, cats also get a sense of achievement and existence through tapping on keys, listening to their sounds, feeling the warm of the computer, and seeing the light come through the screen.

其实Furby的喵逻辑告诉我个原因:

1)猫猫喜欢键盘和电脑的温度。猫猫的体温比人类的平均体温要高,大约在38-39度左右。由于体温高的原因,猫猫们比人类对寒冷更敏感。而且他们不擅长体温调节,所以比较喜欢寻找暖和的地方往上蹭呀磨呀,就像女孩们喜欢暖宝宝一样。

2)喵逻辑第二条当然是希望得到主人的关注啦。从很小就开始被人类养的猫猫,从断奶之后(8-12周)就得到人类主人的照顾,那么猫猫对于主人的依赖性较强,没有什么独立性。因为猫猫会好奇人类可以连续“关注”电脑很长的时间,所以它们希望抢走人类对电脑的注意力。这时候如果主人给予关爱抚摸和马杀鸡,猫猫会非常开心的。

3)因为敲键盘的手指在快速移动,在猫猫的视角看来就像玩具。而它们对于会动的物品以及咔哒咔哒发出响声的东西非常敏感。例如很多猫猫特别钟爱激光笔或者会移动发出声响的老鼠玩具。当然也像大自然中猫猫捕获的小动物,输入文字时手指的动作或声响,可能唤起猫猫的狩猎本能。这时候主人可以用玩具陪猫猫玩玩小游戏,总比玩键盘弄坏电脑好多啦。

猫咪无法理解键盘就像人类也无法理解宇宙真正的样子一样。人类通过探索世界、解决困难来获得满足感、认同感和存在感。猫咪也通过趴在键盘上获得关注,听键盘敲打的声音,感受电脑的温度,荧幕发出的亮光,磨蹭拍打键盘的感觉来获得满足感和存在感。

Understanding cat logic, humans have invented the anti-cat keyboard cover table, genius!

当然神奇的人类为了应对猫咪怕键盘的行为,发明了防猫键盘罩。

The belly and the pink paws are just cuteness overload.

吸引主人的最大卖萌点可能是可以轻松的欣赏到猫咪的肚子和肉球抓抓。

Using the iPad and Keyboard together is now possible!

并且还能同时用ipad和电脑。

Clever cats will find a way around this very quickly.
Lie in front of the keyboard table, then they can't type!

然而聪明的猫咪们很快的找到了解决它的办法。
躺在键盘罩前面,主人没办法打字。

Lie between the keyboard table and the monitor, and kick the keyboard out!

躺在键盘和屏幕中间,将键盘从键盘罩中推出来。

Since cats are so quick to figure out ways round our keyboard table invention, we discovered the best way to keep them at bay, is put a box by your screen, they will snuggle up inside it. Afterall, what cats don't like boxes??

在这个发明被猫咪轻松破译后,最好的解决办法其实是在电脑边放上纸盒子,因为没有猫咪不喜欢纸盒。

As a general rule, i upvote cat posts on sight =)

The cat I posted before says hi too though its only half awake.

Cool Article!

I love cats :D

Nice article and cute owner of Furby)))

I also like cats)):

I liked your photos, thank you!Nice job!

Beautiful cat and interesting article.

Cats are using interesting tactics right here, true evolution in action. Cats goal is to get their owners attention from the tech and to pet them. Evil or they care for our well being. Hard to tell :)

很可爱 ! And that's a funny article

Meow meow! We should be friends! (=^.^=)

The cat logic are all very true, lol... Are you planning to adopt another cat in China?

Hopefully, I will expand my cat family in China one day. I can't live wihout cats..

Never did I expect to read something so comprehensive about domestic cat behaviours xD

Oh, but I guess since nearly everybody has cats, it's easy to relate to !

Haha, nice humourous bits in between.

Nice article, I like cats!

cute cats. cool!

Cute cat

Thankfully our cat is not into sitting on my keyboard. Mind you, she is an old lady of 18.

I've discovered that you have to be wary when a cat is on their back. If you go to stroke they can attack your hand. I learnt that the hard way ;)

Haha, i've found that they do like a bit of rough play and lie on their stomach waiting for you to stroke them, then they attack you!

谢谢分享。Furby 太漂亮啦!我的猫跑丢了我伤心死了,到现在还是不能有猫怕再次伤到。记得你是在北京,那furby也在北京吗?还是伦敦?

谢谢你的夸奖和喜欢呀,Furby在伦敦,现在朋友帮忙我养。很难过你的猫丢了,希望以后你能再次遇到和你投缘的猫猫~~

文采一如既往,赞

谢谢你哟!

Beautiful cat and interesting article. My Siamese is at my keyboard much of the time I am.

I see the siamese have the same sneaky cat logic as furby does!

Cat logic: you keep a dog, but you don't keep a cat - a cat keeps you.

Cool cats! My cat took off for a couple days and came back. I wonder what she did for those two days? Secret life? lol :)

What a cutie!
