From NPR 貓咪馬戲團真的好可愛,本周廣播介紹多才多藝的動物,練聽力也養眼。Don't we all love these circus cats?

能讓貓咪鎮定地戴著著假睫毛也算是一種特技,
不過本周的NPR報導的是貨真價實的喵喵馬戲團,保證讓你大開眼界。

教練家裡的兩隻貓咪也會表演特技,但他們很怕生,只敢在熟人面前表演,所以無法登台演出。最會跳環的黑皮在兩年前癌症過世之後,我家的五毛就不再表演特技了。教練貼一些照片給大家看,證明不是唬爛。




其實動物要訓練並不難,首要條件就是要挑好吃的貓咪,這樣訓練起來才容易。給喵喵他們喜歡的零嘴就可以了。但話雖如此,我的朋友們如法炮製成效卻不彰。所以教練可能只是運氣好養了兩隻天生就會表演特技的貓咪。

上圖這幾隻貓咪才是真正厲害的貓咪馬戲團成員。
這對母女真的靠著貓咪賺了不少錢。

這個貓咪推輪圈的高級動作,我家的貓做不出來。

  1. 老師,借我練習一下英文哦:) 有錯再請您指點一下!

    It reminds me of a cat, named monk cat. I learned it from a footage on Line. It's was an amazing cat. He/She's vegan, never eats meat, no kills also. Most of the time he/she quietly stays in a temple, worships or stares at the Buddha statues.

  2. Really?
    Sadly, this is not going to be good for that temple cat because cats are obligate carnivores which means they need meat in their diet. Cats need to eat meat because they need Taurine. Taurine is an amino acid. It is the building blocks of protein essential for cats. Taurine can only be found in animal sources such as meat and milk. It is not found in plant sources. Taurine can be synthesized in humans and dogs, but cats are unable to do this and require a direct source from an animal product. So, a vegan cat can develop a heart issue and without enough protein, it is not going to have a lot of energy. Also, since cats don't digest carbohydrates very well, they need more calorie dense options from meat sources.

    This sounds like they are doomed from the beginning right? Most cats need meat in order to survive. My cats don't kill for food but they need to consume meat if they want to live a healthy and long life.

  3. I see! I don't cats Taurine...! I believe what you said is correct, but the thing is the cat dislikes meat food according to the footage on Line. When people fed him meat, the cat turned away his head. I believe this cat was a monk in his previous life.
