Times have changed, and people's attitudes towards cats have also changed significantly. Most people treat their cats very well after getting one, raising them like children and taking care of them in every way. For example, trimming a cat's nails is something many people do, because cats now live in the same house as people, and if their nails aren't trimmed, the furniture will suffer. However, trimming a cat's nails is also a chore; you can easily get scratched if you're not careful. Cat owners have come up with many solutions, like one pet owner who simply covers the cat's eyes while trimming its nails, and that solves the problem.
The owner was trimming the cat's nails, and when the owner covered the cat's eyes, the cat became well-behaved. Netizens commented: "The cat version of 'burying one's head in the sand'."
The pet owner has an adorable short-legged cat that's usually quite friendly and has a good temperament. However, the cat becomes very aggressive when it's time to trim its nails. This particular day, the owner was trimming the cat's nails, and knowing it would be a challenging task, two people were working together.
The male lead was holding the cat, controlling its body and paws, while the female lead was in charge of trimming its nails. Even so, the cat wouldn't stay still. Seeing the female lead touching it, the cat couldn't accept it and hissed fiercely at her. If the female lead hadn't dodged quickly, she would have been bitten.
Cats have very sharp teeth, and being bitten would definitely cause serious injury, which worried the female protagonist. To solve this problem, the two tried many methods and finally came up with a good one that worked quite well: the male protagonist used the cat's paw to cover the cat's eyes, and the cat stopped moving.
After the cat's eyes were covered, it stopped being aggressive and became as quiet as a chicken, not moving at all. Although the woman continued to trim its nails, the cat no longer attacked her and seemed to have fallen asleep.
Netizen: This is like burying your head in the sand, pretending it doesn't exist just because you can't see it. It's like a cat version of burying its head in the sand.
The male and female protagonists found this very strange, so they moved the cat's paw away and tried it again. Sure enough, after seeing the cat's eyes, it continued to act fiercely. In the end, the male protagonist covered the cat's eyes, and the cat became obedient again.
It has to be said that this is a good method, but it's unclear whether it works for all cats.
