I agree. Remembering frugal and practical attitudes my grandparents' generation had, it sounds unbelievable that ancient people would waste food for vain reasons. Also, I doubt that there used to be as much trash laying around as it is now, as food was much more scarce. In all the stories in folklore, cats are said to be kept to control mice. Also, dogs were domesticated around ~30000 years ago, the oldest rat killing dog breeds are only 600-500 years old. This theory that cats had no purpose makes no sense to me.

Cats may have originally come from nature, but now they are domesticated. They depend on humans for survival and they are not truly happy unless they have a human whom they love and whom loves them. I strongly disagree with the premise of this video that cats can have a meaningful life without a caretaking human - it’s just plain wrong. They would survive only so long and they would suffer many calamitous health issues. They don’t “learn to put up with humans.” They desire relationship with humans.

There are many researchers & scientists who believe cats significantly affect the bird population, and I agree. The birds have enough predators w/o adding pet cats. Mine is a hunter and he would kill a bird once a week, lizards several a day, and the adorable tiny wild rabbits that everything wants to eat whenever he discovers one. He caught an injured baby crow , and since I always left the patio door open cat-width, he brought it in to the garage. I let it loose and the neighbors cat went for it- the parents pecked his eye out, so he suffered a painful injury and lost sight in that eye. It could’ve happened to mine. We also have coyotes hunting pet cats in our neighborhood. After that day, he could not go out again. I know he loved the outdoors, it makes me sad, he was probably happier, but I have to keep him safe.

When you bring a stray or shelter cat into your home just put down food, water, and kitty litter and let them come to you, however long it takes. They will become the sweetest, loving, appreciative cat ever! I’m 70 and have had cats all my life and you have to give them their space. By giving them food and space they become the most loving friend that you’ll ever have!

I have had cats most of my life, and many different coat colours. Temperament has nothing to do with colours. And a cat is a hunter. If you don't have big roads near by, let them injoy nature. I do. My oldest cat was put down when he was almost 23 years old. I train with my cats. They come when I call, they sit on command and so on. With patience and love you can train a cat, and it actually makes a closer bond. Our cat goes for walks with me and her big sister, a dog, and she loves it.

23:56 - Cats didn't evolve or tap into this sensory bias we have for that sound range. It's always been the same as human babies. It is why lions have confused the sound of a crying human child as something they need to protect. This has been explained in the past as to why lions have sometimes been found guarding crying human children in the wild.

Where I am in the US, most of us keep our cats inside because of coyotes and bobcats, who have killed and eaten peoples pet cats.

I kept the two cats in my life entertained because I knew that they could get into all kinds of things, so I got them toys and different things so that they could climb on also, because I knew that cats love to climb, and I had scratching posts for them.

40:53 The black coat of a domestic cat is the result of the presence of a pigment called eumelanin; it's not the result of the “absence of colors.” The black color in a cat's coat is due to a high concentration of eumelanin in the fur, which results in a black appearance; it's a single color produced by the presence of this particular pigment.

Interesting and very informative. On the topic of feral cats and length of time it can take to form a bond with one, I once had one female feral who took up residence in my yard. I had plenty of spaces where she could sleep and exist safely so when she showed to be pregnant, I made arrangements, when she was ready, to have the kittens fostered and adopted out. I had her brought back as I had made plans to feed her and let her live where it was wArm and comfortable. I then started the task of getting her to bond with me and it took 6 years to get her to jump in my lap and snuggle. She was a sweetheart to me but would only allow one other person, my granddaughter, the same privilege.

I'm always afraid to let my Drako(my Profile)or Delilah out to roam.. I'm afraid I might not see them again and would be devastated.. My Drake was a TNR cat that I adopted,Lala(Delilah) was a young 10 month ish old cat I met at work on the street,she had no chip,needed vaccines,and very fickle about food,I think she was a kitten born on the street but just got tired of doing it like that.. she absolutely chose me,she picked me out everyday for about a week before she came home with me.. changed my life.. I just worry something will happen to my little companions if I let them roam,I do take them out for play time/walks in the backyard so they're not stuck inside,cause I do feel bad about keeping them inside,but I can't protect them if I don't see them

The problem is that too many people want cats to behave and be obedient like dogs, instead of being what they are, ie little lions in our living rooms. Let's stop trying to change them and, instead, admire their wildness and be happy that they share any part of their lives with us at all.

cats purpose is to make us laugh and to entertain and be our companion. They make us happy and we help them to be happy as well.

My white female did not get the memo that she was not a hunter. All of her life there would be snakes, rodents, frogs, and all sorts of creatures on my porch or even in the house if I opened the door unaware that she had some thing. She taught her children well because her grey son also hunted everything. When you have cats that Enjoy hunting and are great hunters it's a never ending life of praising them for their accomplishments. I did not get the white mother from anywhere in particular, she was in a box in front of a grocery store. I will say though, I lived in an area that was not heavily populated and the houses were very far apart. She was an indoor/outdoor cat who went out at night and always came back in the morning. In the winter she still wanted to go out at night and we were sometimes afraid for her because of the snowy and cold winters in upstate New York, but she was very smart and in winter she would not stay out too long. My grandmother also found a little black and white kitten who grew up to be a master hunter. She saw her cat on the lawn jumping straight up into the air very, very high and brought a bird down. My grandmother loved birds and she was brokenhearted but she could not bear to scold the cat she loved. She lived in residential Pennsylvania in a neighborhood where the houses had good room around them and the yards were large.

I'm always amazed at how some people rant about cats killing birds. Millions of migratory birds are killed every year slamming into windows, especially those of high rise buildings.

Structured playtime at set times can help with this a lot (same with a scheduled mealtime). Also, you CAN harness train a cat or get a stroller for them. Or a cattio. They can still have supervised outdoor time even with FIV so long as you are careful. FIV doesn't need to be a death sentence, you just have to be hyper vigilant with their health and do everything you can to prevent them from being sick.

I think it's the fact that we respond so quickly to that baby crying frequency that cats learn it. I have had cats and they always use that meow when they are asking for something they are not supposed to have, like going outside at night. It really is a maddening sound to us humans.

He also loves to watch the birds. And doesn’t seem to want to hunt them either. However, he’s never been face-to-face with the birds, but I grew up with cats too though tht got along with birds too

I have always had animals in my life, wouldn’t want to be without them. They give unconditional Love and affection. They can be trained, they are protective of their ‘family’.

It's why I love cats. They decided to love us.

the stray that adopted me wakes up and choose violence every day by slapping me in the face to wake me up and then starts the pawing kneading then leans into it like she's trying to push me out of the bed.

An excellent instalment of a generally great series. _Pets & Vets_ always delivers quality content, which usually contains a few tidbits of new and interesting information to even long-time pet guardians. On another note: If the blonde vet lady should ever open an office near me, I'm afraid all my cats would suddenly start developing all sorts of ailments, which come and go randomly 😁

I have an orange female tabby and a black Bombay cat. Orange cats originated in ancient Egypt and 65percent of orange cats are male. My female orange tabby is a bit of a rarity. Black cat I rescued. She is also not extremely common. Love them both. ❤

Keeping Cats indoors has extended their lifespans and improved health, but a compromise with a Catio to stimulate their senses and satisfy curiosity is a better compromise. I can’t afford a Catio so I have Bird feeders & Bird houses just outside my windows so they have essentially “Bird tv” that also attracts Squirrels. Some of my Cats have even developed playtime with curious Squirrels that come to the windows knowing the Cats can’t hurt them & learn to play games that stimulate both animals. I’ve lived 67 yrs with Cats & wouldn’t have it any other way. They all have different personalities and temperaments and I have often adopted whole families. Adopting families I’ve found that they maintain lifelong bonds with their siblings/MaMas and develope other bonds with no related Cats, but tend to be closest with their own relatives. I currently have Cats from 3 families. One isn’t related to anyone but is peacekeeper and moves between the others & is revered/loved by all the others. One that is related to 2 others but moves between families freely, and the others stick mostly to their own siblings. I have been rescuing & fostering Cats/Kittens for more than 50 yrs & wouldn’t have it any other way. I also provide food & shelter for neighborhood Cats that aren’t entirely feral, but choose not to be a stable resident of any one home, or ones that get out or are left out by their owners & need shelter/food temporarily. The benefits and pleasure of Cats company is something I find makes my Life worthwhile, especially in my aging yrs.♥️🐈‍⬛

Cats are very particular about who they pick as friends, but many just love their buddies. Some cats want to be the only cat, others seek out friendships and welcome most cats as friends. I’ve had multiple cats and they are happier and truly love each other. Much better than only one.

I make the same exact sound @8:12 to call my cat 😂

Over several years in the past I had 14 cats. At one time or another there were several living in the house. And they all got along beautifully. I have photographs of them sleeping together in a pile. It was a lovely time. Now I have one cat only. He was feral, then lived in a warehouse by himself. He was brought to me and over a year or so he has become very tame and happy. He is attached to me as surely as any dog I have had. I do worry that he may be bored because he is kept indoors. The wild life around here could easily kill him. I find cats fascinating and endearing along with a certain pathos. I enjoyed this video very much.

I have to laugh. You captured everything I think of my feline family members. A few years ago, I made a picture of a tiger and a mountain lion. I told my daughter, a cat lover with four cats, that this was a picture of my tiger cat and my half Siamese. My daughter poo pooed this but I now think that I was very close to the truth. I just happened to realize what my mini great cats were really all about. After all, they do hunt and stay aware of everything going on around them. Thanks for a great video.

Was getting a little annoyed at the implied misinformation and bias in this documentary until I remembered it's British made and coming from a country that has some of the most arcane ideas of cat guardian ship that I know of in the English speaking world I... I guess that explaineds t. Not to add the fact that they murder dogs simply for their breed . PS I am well aware that there are quite a few shelters and people who do not share those views in the British isles , I am talking about the general national attitude towards cats and wether to keep them inside or not and ther bully breed ban.

I've seen a cat miss a jump and land on their butts a few times. They are normally noticeably embarrassed, quickly make sure no one was looking, and put their ears back if you laugh.

The original Thor had red hair. Maybe that’s why the Vikings liked red cats

Lifelong dog person with a dog family never once had a cat. Sporadically the neighbours cat would come to our driveway very scared and ran away when we tried to pat him, This happened for about three months. We asked the owners if the cat was okay and they said yes he’s a rescue cat so he’s very cautious and scared. Fast forward six years he’s been here for five years and sleeps with my every night and the owners say they are completely fine with it as long as he is happy and safe So the cat pretty much just said “I live here now”

That was brilliant thank you ❤

Great video!

My boy raises his tail straight up when we are headed to have a treat so when he's super happy

Q: Can people and cats coexist? A: Yes!!! ✌️

Even the mannerisms of lions, cougars and jaguars are all the same as housecats. If you know cats you can literally come upon a mountain lion and determine in short order whether you were truly in danger or not. The pre-hunting/strike movements are identical. Even lions as long as they're fed are just as sweet as housecats. They only become vicious when hunting because they have to be.

I remember watching this documentary a few years ago, thankfully I have found it again

great documentary! best on KZread
