00:00Have you ever seen a cat run away like crazy just from a single drop of water?
00:04It's gone so viral that many people now believe cats genuinely hate water.
00:08But is that a fact, or just them being dramatic?
00:12Well, experts have a fascinating explanation.
00:15Cats don't actually hate water, but they don't like the feeling of being wet and heavy.
00:20Their fur isn't waterproof like a duck's feathers.
00:23So when their fur gets soaked, it's uncomfortable, cold, and makes their movements feel heavy.
00:30Besides, the ancestors of modern cats originally came from desert regions.
00:35They weren't used to large amounts of water like the ones around us.
00:38So, their instinct tells them that water is something unfamiliar.
00:43However, there are some cat breeds that actually love water, like the Maine Coon or the Turkish Van.
00:51So, in conclusion, cats don't hate water.
00:55They just dislike the feeling of being wet.
00:57So, if your cat runs away during bath time, it's not because they hate you.
