Shaking a pack of treats is a cat summoning call
A few days ago, before i'm about to go out to work, i count my cats to make sure none of them left outside in my fenced yard, and one is missing. I couldn't find her anywhere, even in my storeroom which i double checked to make sure she really isn't there, so i took the exact treat and shake it hard, a few moment later she crawl out of my storeroom.
I don't suppose it would have the same effect on wild undomesticated felines who subsist strictly on the prey they hunt, kill, and devour. If they heard a shaking package of synthetic kibble they might be curious but not immediately Pavlov'ed into drooling for it.
The craziest thing is that it always brings one of my cats running with the rest, but he's never eaten any of the treats, even if he's alone, he always comes but never eats, and we've tried tons of different ones. He will happily steal a McDonald's French fry though.
That actually works. Rattling of dry food somehow always bring them in.
One of our cats is pretty cute and always rush to us when we call her.
Well, I can see twice as loud as a gerbil so fuck you cat.
Supposedly our voices are too low and we sound like noise to them. I watched a video where scientists transformed their voices to the same frequency as a mouse and they were able to train a cat.
I think it’s a poor take on cat hearing. They can hear better than us, but it requires targeted focus from their ears. Which is partly why they have better hearing: they can fixate on sounds by turning their ears.
So when you yell from the other room, the cat likely won’t hear unless their ear is aimed at the sound to pick it up. Which is unlikely.
Don’t take memes as “truth.”
