Scientists have discovered that cats use meows to control people.
The researchers took several dozen cats, placed in front of them a plastic box with their favorite treats, but did it so that the pets could not get them themselves.
And if the owner was nearby, the cats meowed a total of 86 times, and if the owner was not there, only 20. Moreover, they didn't just scream, but looked at either the person or the lunch box, as if trying to show what they needed.
As a result, scientists have suggested that cats simply want you to solve their problems with their meows.
