Cats and mice were originally a natural thing, but with the influx of foreign breeds of cats, you will find that many cats can no longer catch mice, because they no longer need to eat mice to fill their stomachs.
Take a look at the following small story shared by this netizen, worthy of our Chinese pastoral cat, it is excellent!
This woman likes cats very much, and has 2 pastoral cats, although the appearance is not very good, but it is very well-behaved. And do not eat idle meals, many times you can do your own food and clothing.
Only to see 2 cats in a few hours of effort, caught the family mouse, a total of 5. Probably thinking of waiting for the women's reward, they line up the rats neatly. One of the cats also licked its paws as if it were hissing.

Hahahahaha, veterinarian Xiaoming can rarely see such a powerful cat, now many cats see mice and even a little scared, sure enough, we pastoral cats are powerful, worthy of the nemesis of mice.
The following veterinarian Xiaoming popularizes why cats catch mice.
First of all, cats are generally active at night, and their good eyesight is inseparable from taurine in the body. Once the taurine is missing, it has a great impact on their vision, and it can even lead to blindness, and it just so happens that the taurine contained in the body of the mouse is quite abundant.
And compared to other animals, the size of mice is within the range of cats. Cats are small, they are natural hunters, as early as 10,000 years ago, in order to prevent rat infestation, humans domesticated cats to restrain mice.
In addition, let's talk about the digestive system of cats, their intestines are very short, and the storage space is not large, which determines that the food they eat is easier to digest, and many small animals rich in protein are their targets, including mice.
In fact, taurine is not only very important for the cat's vision, if the lack of taurine, but also will lead to low cat reproductive ability, even if the birth of cubs, will also affect the survival rate, and easy to give birth to deformed fetuses.
Nowadays, many cats do not need to catch mice anymore, because the food that the shoveler usually feeds cats contains taurine. It is recommended that the shoveler usually add some foods containing taurine to the cat, such as mackerel and sardines, which contain taurine is relatively rich.
