猫咪咕噜的奥秘 The Secret of Cat Purring

猫咪们总是以他们独特的方式,给我们带来温暖和快乐,尤其是通过他们那柔和的咕噜声。

我们通常认为猫咪咕噜是因为感到开心和满足,尤其是在吃到好吃的和享受拍拍的时候。金金经常一咕噜就是一两个小时,还有小牛奶,每次抱着他的时候,他都会咕噜个不停。

但是最近我才知道,原来猫咪的咕噜不止意味着开心,相反,他们在饥饿、害怕甚至受伤的时候也会咕噜。这是因为,其实他们的咕噜是一种自我安慰、转移注意力的方式,就像我们人类会通过哭泣、大笑甚至整理房间等方式安抚自己、分散情绪一样。更神奇的是,猫咪咕噜声是处在一种很特别的低频率中,这会在他们身体内部产生一系列的震动,帮助猫咪更快速的康复、促进身体健康。当然,也会让我们的精神放松,归于平静。

而猫咪间的互相照顾也体现在这咕噜声中。兽医和科学家发现一些猫咪会在同伴受伤时躺在它身边咕噜咕噜。而母猫会在小猫刚出生的那段时间里,长时间发出咕噜的声音,以便还没睁开眼睛的小猫能通过声音找到妈妈。

所以,猫咪的咕噜声不仅仅是快乐的象征,更是一种复杂的情感表达。猫咪通过咕噜声传达安慰、促进康复,甚至在它们的群体中分享爱与关怀。在这个快节奏的世界里,或许我们也可以向这些小生命学习,找到属于自己的方式,来安抚心灵、寻找内心的平静。


Cats always bring us warmth and happiness in their own unique way, especially through their soft purrs.

We usually think of cats purring because they feel happy and content, especially when they eat something delicious and enjoy being patted. Jin Jin often purrs for an hour or two, and there is also Little Milk. Every time I hold him, he will purr non-stop.

But recently I learned that cats’ purring doesn’t just mean they are happy. On the contrary, they also purr when they are hungry, scared, or even hurt. This is because, in fact, their grunting is a way of self-comfort and distraction, just like we humans will soothe ourselves and distract ourselves by crying, laughing, or even tidying up the room. What’s even more amazing is that cats purr at a very special low frequency, which produces a series of vibrations inside their bodies, helping cats recover more quickly and promoting good health. Of course, it will also make our spirits relax and calm.

The mutual care between cats is also reflected in this purr. Veterinarians and scientists have discovered that some cats will lie next to their companions and purr when they are injured. The mother cat will purr for a long time when the kittens are just born, so that the kittens that have not yet opened their eyes can find their mother through the sound.

Therefore, a cat's purring is not only a symbol of happiness, but also a complex emotional expression. Cats purr to convey comfort, promote healing, and even share love and care within their group. In this fast-paced world, perhaps we can learn from these little beings and find our own way to soothe our souls and find inner peace.
