Does the cat know he is beautiful?
Some people see a beautiful cat and say he is beautiful, they like him and resolve to keep one for fun. However, this is just people's wishful thinking. The cat knows that he is beautiful, or does he know that people know that he is beautiful?
I'm afraid I don't know. In the eyes of people, a cat is a clean animal. When he is fine, he will lick his fur with his tongue, which is equivalent to combing his hair and making his fur shiny, which is very cute. After the cat defecates, it will dig some sand and cover it to prevent the smell from spreading. So people say that cats are clean, and keeping cats is cleaner than keeping dogs. Cats are clean and beautiful, but they don't know it. Licking fur or covering feces is just a biological instinct, it's not what cats are meant to do. After all, cats have not developed their thinking and cannot have complex thinking. However, when a cat is in heat, he will scream, jump up and down, and groom his hair to attract the attention of the opposite sex. These behaviors are just the biological instincts of animals, just like a peacock spreads its tail to attract the attention of the opposite sex. From the peacock's point of view, we don't know whether we are beautiful, but our biological instincts are at work.
Some people say you are not a cat, do you know that a cat does not know that he is beautiful? This question belongs to Zhuangzi's contradiction of "A child is not a fish, how can he know the joy of a fish?" Only cats know that they are beautiful, but humans are not cats, so we don't know whether cats know whether they are beautiful or not. In fact cats are known not to think logically or to appreciate their own characteristics, instead they are just a biological instinct at work. In other words, cats eat mice as a matter of course, do cats know that eating mice is good for humans? Of course, I don't know, they just follow the needs of biological instinct. Cats don't know that they are beautiful, and they don't know that they are not beautiful. That is to say, cats don't have the word beautiful in their consciousness, and they can't understand the meaning of beauty.
According to the research of scientists, why can dogs get along well with the family? Because in the dog's eyes, everyone in the family is his relatives. In other words, the dog will think that the human family members who accompany him day and night are bigger than him. In the dog's mind, the family and the dog are actually a litter of dogs. That's why dogs always follow when the family goes out.
The same is true for cats. In the eyes of cats, a family may be a litter and together. A cat gets along well with and interacts with the family, however a cat's behavior is just a biological instinct, he doesn't have complex thought patterns, it's impossible to know what he's doing and whether he's beautiful or not.
Most people like cats, they love cats too much, they think cats understand human nature, cats also know they are beautiful, in fact it is not the case. A cat being a cat is a cleaner animal. In other words, cats don't know if they love to be clean, they just follow their biological instincts. When people look at cats, they externalize their subjective feelings, and cats don't know it. People see the beauty of cats is actually their own longing for beauty, seeing cats like clean is actually their own longing for cleanliness, what they see is yearning or what they hate to see, for example, unhygienic cats catching mice and The cat itself has nothing to do, after all cats don't know if they are beautiful, how do they feel?
