    cats can't see color?

    Thank you. I've seen my cats sniff and area I cleaned with cleanser and do the thing were they open their mouths, its like their trying to analyze the scent and they look at me when they do this with the expression, like what is this?

    • @whalesong999
      @whalesong999 7 лет назад +4

      Some other animals have similar ways of gathering smells. Cattle do much the same as cats, taking in odors and processing through their mouths, especially to determine the time of mating preparedness.

    they call it a grimace. but look at the cats and the lioness' body language. there's no tension in their frames. There's no fear or disgust. They're alert but not tense.
