Why are cats born to catch mice? This is because cats are born with strong predation instincts and are particularly good at chasing and catching small animals, so they will be trained to become hunting cats. Mouses are the best prey for cats, so cats will naturally catch them.

Cats catch mice because the mice contain high taurine, which can help their eyesight at night. Cats are carnivorous animals. In addition to mice, birds and fish are also targets for cats to hunt. Cats’ hunting skills are taught by female cats since childhood. They have left female cats as pet cats since childhood. If they don’t know how to hunt, it will be difficult to catch mice.

Many domestic cats may not have seen mice in their lives, and at home, they do not need to go out to hunt at night. The food they eat is rich in nutrients, so they will not catch mice.

And now many people raise cats not to catch mice, but to raise them as pets.
