Caini versus pisici

Durata citire: 5 minute

Potrivit sondajelor, peste 50% dintre romani au un animal de companie. Dintre acestia, cei mai multi prefera cainii (59,4%), in vreme ce iubitorii de pisici sunt in numar considerabil mai mic (36,6%). Dar dezbaterea caini vs pisici este mult mai ampla de atat, facand subiectul multor cercetari de-a lungul timpului.

Care e mai inteligent, cainele sau pisica? Care e mai iubitor? Care e mai egoist? Care e mai usor de crescut? Care e mai prietenos cu copiii? Care e mai terapeutic? Care stapani sunt mai inteligenti, ai cainilor sau ai pisicilor? Ce spune alegerea animalului de companie despre viata amoroasa a stapanului? Si cate si mai cate nastrusnicii de intrebari, la care echipe intregi de oameni de stiinta si-au pus mintea sa raspunda. In timp ce cainii si pisicile sigur nu-si bat capul cu asta si fac ce stiu cel mai bine: ne subjuga sa-i iubim iremediabil, umplandu-ne existenta cu multa bucurie si lectii nepretuite, pe care nu le putem invata de nicaieri din alta parte.

Dar, daca niste minti luminate au alocat timp din viata lor pentru a raspunde unor controverse – pesemne aprinse, de au meritat sa fie luate in seama de cercetatori – sa vedem la ce concluzii s-a ajuns, macar in ce priveste inteligenta celor doua specii.
