A poem about a cat.

Cat.

When the cold comes

Terribly fond of a cat.

She lies with her eyes closed

Meows, yawns,

And the flame is bright in the furnace

She sings softly.

And I'm on an old mattress

Lie down, tired a little,

I read a book and look

On the flame and on the cat.

Walter de la Mer (translated by V. Lunin)

And washed with a soft paw.

Introduction

Our life in the natural world cannot be imagined without animals. Every person likes some kind of animal. I really like cats. I love playing with them and watching them. I have long known that cats are amazing animals. They have a special behavior, I wanted to understand this. It became interesting to me: what does the cat want to say when it describes the "eight" around the owner's legs or when it starts to purr loudly?Relevance my research is that every child wants to have pet but doesn't know how to communicate with him. In my work, I will present the experience that I gained while studying the habits and behavior of a cat.

The practical significance of the work : this work will help to form the ability of children to understand the behavior of cats and to cultivate a good attitude towards pets.

I decided to do some research. My research consisted of: observing the behavior of my house cat, studying literature about cats. I put forwardhypothesis based on the study characteristic features, the language of communication of cats can be learned to understand their desires and needs.

Research objectives:

    Collect and study material about cats.

    Observe the behavior of cats in various conditions.

    Make a dictionary "How to understand cats"

    Organize and summarize the material.

Object of study : domestic cat.

Subject of study: cat behavior

Research methods: questioning, observation, experiment, generalization, systematization.

    Who is this cat?

The word cat itself means either a biological species in general, or a female cat. Cats belong to the cat family (lat.Carnivore) - animals that feed mainly on meat.

Cat (domestic cat, lat.Felissilvestriscatus) is a medium-sized predatory mammal from the cat family.

The ancient original and, apparently, the main ancestor of all breeds and varieties of domestic cats is considered to be the wild North African buckskin, or Libyan, Felis the cat silvestris lybica and spotted steppe Felis silvestris ocreata.

There are 35 species in the world wild cats and over 300 domestic breeds.

    The appearance of cats in human life.

Cats came to people many thousands of years ago in ancient Egypt. They were good with cats. Cats guarded the bins of the ancient Egyptians from mice. Over time, cats began to be deified, in case of fire, cats were rescued first of all. Cats have come a long way from Egypt different countries and finally, in the 12th century, they came to Europe.

Cats appeared in Rus' in the 7th-6th centuries. BC e. It was supposedly brought by merchants and warriors who had extensive connections with the Mediterranean.AT Ancient Rus' the economic qualities of a cat were first appreciated by the clergy. They put it under the protection of church law. Do you know how much the cat cost? In the ancient Russian judicial code of the 16th century. there is a mention that a fine was set for a stolen animal, a cat was equal in price to an ox.

In Russia, a cat has always been considered a sign of home comfort and well-being. When entering the house, the cat must be the first to cross the threshold of the house, otherwise there will be no happiness in it. AND tricolor cat brings happiness and prosperity to the house.

Many of my relatives and friends keep cats at home. I wondered why the choice fell on this animal. I decided to spendpoll: why do you keep a cat in the house and what breed?

I asked this question to my mother, grandmother and friends. And here are the answers I got:

    Granny . We live in a private house and cats are our great helpers. They catch rats and mice. Also, tooshka is a good doctor. If you suddenly get sick, and the pussy is right there. You will settle down next to, or even in a sore spot, you feel how the pain subsides, there is confidence in recovery. We have simple outbreds: a cat and a cat.

    Mother . A cat is a faithful, attentive friend. You will come home tired, often irritated, and a fluffy lump at your feet. Rubs, sings a song, looks into the eyes, asks for hands. Well, how not to take. And, lo and behold, fatigue vanished as if by magic, irritation was gone. Our cat is a purebred

    Anyuta and Vika. The cat catches mice. It is fun to play with her and she is very beautiful. Our cats are outbred named Ryzhik and Nyusha.

I conducted a survey among my classmates.(Appendix 1)

After processing the data, I got the following results:

There are 16 students in the class.

15 people have pets at home and 12 of them have cats or cats, which confirms the fact that most families prefer to have a cat rather than a dog.

All children love their animal very much, spend their free time with it, play and take care of the pet. Most children believe that when they talk to a cat, she understands them, but the guys are not always able to understand and explain the behavior of the animal.

    Life and habits of a cat.

There are many secret and amazing things in the life of cats. Cats have very sensitive hearing. She hears even the slightest rustle that mice make, and is immediately alert. The cat is very clean and often washes. She is constantly licking not so much dirt as ... her own smell. All cats are hunters. They hunt from ambush. If the prey senses danger by smell, you will remain hungry. The cat is very acute vision. The cat's eye has been compared to the reflectors of cars. And indeed - a cat in the semi-darkness can be seen a greenish gleam in the eyes. Cats are able to distinguish colors, but compared to humans, their perception of color is weaker - less contrast and bright. It has been noticed that a cat perceives stationary and nearby objects worse than moving ones. Cats correctly determine the distance to the object, they calmly walk in the dark. Vibris help them in this - long stiff hairs, which we call mustaches. The cat walks silently, retracting its claws and stepping with soft pads, climbs deftly.They say the cat heals. Scientists confirm this fact. Indeed, if you stroke a cat for a long time, it will pass headache, pressure will decrease, nerves will calm down, mood will improve.Cats even treat various diseases. It is calledfelinotherapy . Cats are very picky in food, they distinguish between sour, bitter and salty. This intelligibility is due, first of all, to a good sense of smell and developed taste buds on the tongue. Cats can move fearlessly over ridges, fences, and tree limbs. When falling, they can reflexively assume the position in the air necessary for landing on their paws. The cat is endowed with an amazing memory and powers of observation. She notices everything, remembers everything.

    Cat Behavior Observations

Cats have developed a whole language - scientists have 25 different visual signals that can be used in 16 combinations.

The position of the head, ears, eyes, and vibrissae (whiskers) can tell a lot about a cat's mood and condition.

When the head is stretched forward, the cat is tuned in to contact or trying to understand the mood of another cat or owner. conflict situation a self-confident animal will meet with a raised head, but if it has seriously aggressive intentions, then it will let go of its head. A submissive cat can also lower its head, however, if it is very frightened and is preparing to defend itself, its head will be raised.

Cat's eyes is a great mood indicator. Narrowing or widening of the eyes can indicate interest, anger or fear in the same way as in humans. A calm cat is more likely to squint in satisfaction. In a frightened cat, the pupils are dilated, in an angry cat, self-confident, the pupils can narrow to the limit, turning into a narrow slit.

Poses of a cat can also tell a lot: Ppawing, rubbing against your legs, rolling onto your back and exposing your belly- shows her submissiveness, she compliments you by saying that she loves and trusts you. If the cat's paws are straight and upright, the head is up and the ears are pricked, the cat is happy, curious and confident. Conversely, the forward and hind legs bent indicate that the cat prefers to avoid a fight, but will defend itself if necessary. An arched back usually means that the cat is preparing for a real fight. This stance is accompanied by flattened ears, wide-open eyes and hair on end on the back and tail.

The tail slowly bends down and then rises again - it means that the cat is in a relaxed state, happy with the world around it, if it rises slightly and gently twists, something is of interest.Tail half tucked between legsthat the cat is afraid, she is unhappy or feels threatened. The hair on the tail stood on end, giving it a fluffy look.and stay straight. So the cat is in an aggressive state, better leave her alone, otherwise you may become a victim of an attack!

Here the cat pricked up its ears- this means that your pet is interested in what he hears around him. If the ears are pressed to the head and turned back, then the cat feels threatened and seeks to protect them.

More details about the language of cats in the dictionary "How to Understand a Cat".(Annex 2)

On the Internet, I read thatJapan released the world's first universal computer-translator of the cat language "Myaulingwal". You can read about his work in the appendix.(Annex 3)

    Practical part

Observation of the behavior of the cat Tima at home.

When I started making this research work, began to pay more attention to Tima's behavior. I noticed that he has a kind of ritual that he performs daily. When mom goes to the kitchen in the morning, he will certainly run near her feet with his tail raised by a pipe. Tima stops in front of the refrigerator (his food is there), slightly waves his tail held high and sharply bends his neck down, like a cooing pigeon. With his demanding "meow", he urges his mother to quickly open the refrigerator and get the desired food. And after Tim thanks for the food, poking his legs with his soft nose and "cooing". And this means that he is grateful to his mother for the fact that she feeds him.

Tim, like all cats, sleeps a lot. He has a favorite pose. He can stretch out on the carpet, and on the armchair, and on the sofa. On the windowsill, Tim likes to sleep and look out the window. It is very interesting to watch when he sees, which, with their chirping and restless behavior, awaken the hunting instinct in him. Tim's whole body tenses up, stretches out, leans forward, and the tail goes from side to side.

While studying the behavior of cats, I conducted several experiments.

Experiment 1 Does Tima have the same sharp hearing as they write about it in reference books and the Internet?

a) Mom and I were sitting in a room, the cat was in another. We talked with her, and so I called his name. Tim came running right away.

b) In the kitchen, I accidentally touch the bowl from which Tim eats. He is right here!

Experiment 2 Does Tima see in the dark as well as all cats? We turn off the light. I can't see anything, but he silently walks around the room. Mom puts in a dark corridor cardboard box. I walk and stumble, and Tima calmly bypasses her.

Experiment 3 All cats love to sleep. I figured that once Tim slept 14 hours a day!

Conclusion.

Scientists believe that the ability of cats remains one of the greatest mysteries of our century. These unusual creatures have conquered our hearts, becoming the masters of our homes for the most part.

Exploring the behavior and language of communication of cats in literature and the Internet, I compared it with how my cat Tim behaves. Now, having learned about what exactly this or that movement, action, act of a cat or the sounds he utters, I can count on a complete understanding with my pet.

The results of the study confirmed the hypothesis that, based on the study of the characteristic features, the language of communication of cats, one can learn to understand their desires and needs. And for classmates who have a little furry friend, I will introduce you to a short dictionary of “cat” symbols. I hope that he will help them understand their pet, learn about his intentions and feelings.

"Meowlingwal"

This device analyzes and distinguishes between the meows and purrs of 14 breeds of domestic cats. This machine then converts the cat sounds into one of the 200 Japanese phrases in the database, which immediately appear on the display. When compiling a dictionary for this device, samples of the meowing of Siberian and American Shorthair cats were used. Meowlingwal can recognize a cat's mood and states such as pleasure, annoyance, or indifference. In addition to all this, there is a "cat language dictionary", which includes about 3,000 words.
