False death in cats

There are some cats that fake their death when they are frightened. This we can then confirm if the cat has faked its death in several ways. Firstly, after death, the cat’s body will gradually become stiff and its body temperature will drop rapidly with time. At this time the owner only needs to use a thermometer to check the cat’s body temperature to know whether the cat is really dead or faking its death. In addition, the owner can also touch some sensitive parts of the cat, such as the flesh pad, tail and belly. After squeezing these areas hard and then observe the cat’s reaction, if the cat does not respond it may be truly dead. The last thing to do is to lure the cat with a snack to observe the cat’s reaction. If the cat does not respond to any of these points, then death is more likely.
