Cats are really very cute and healing pets. Nowadays, as people's living standards improve, they have more free time and earn more money! So most people happily raise a pet to brighten their mood. Therefore, the number of cat owners is increasing. Cats come in many varieties, but all belong to the feline family! However, many people still do not fully understand feline animals, so I plan to explain a bit about them. But after thinking it over, let's first talk about a common trait in all cats: cats are afraid of cucumbers!

That's right, cats are afraid of this thing. Many people may not have noticed, but scientific studies show that cats fear this item! Not just a little fear, but a lot of fear! At first, I was puzzled! How could a cat be afraid of such a thing! Cats that can even catch mice, yet are scared of cucumbers? No way, I didn't quite believe it either, until I researched and found out that cats are not truly afraid of that thing but are simply alert to it. Of course, cats don't eat it because it's poisonous, but because of the color!

Cats are very sensitive to color. Because cats have poor color vision, they can only recognize a few colors; most other colors basically look like black and white to them! However, the unlucky thing is cats can distinguish green and yellow! In many cases where the world looks black and white to them, if you suddenly show them something green, cats get very excited. In their black and white world, adding some color, especially green, makes cats very alert! And it looks like they're scared and moving away, but actually, it's not like that. Cats are just very excited. But if you suddenly approach them from behind and show it to them, they might really get a fright! After all, cats are famously timid; many cats used to be afraid of humans!

So, cats are not afraid of cucumbers, but very sensitive to the color green. Therefore, don't think cats are afraid of cucumbers specifically. Any green object suddenly appearing before their eyes will cause this reaction! Or else, I could try it with your head and see if the cat runs away!
