I used to wonder why my Mainecoon cats, Titan & De-i, loved to sit by the window whenever there were birds around. I gradually found the answers; i.e. it seems that the sounds and the movement of the birds can attract their eyes and that’s why they usually stare at the birds intently.
Therefore, I open bird videos on TV for them everyday. I think the moving birds in the videos closely resemble the reality of birds. Besides, colors of the bird feathers or wings and lighting in the bird videos can attract Titan & De-i’s eyes as well.
For indoor cats like Titan & De-i, the bird videos are very helpful to relieve their daily boredom as I couldn’t play with them all day long. I think watching cat videos is like watching their favorite shows.
And the cat videos are parts of their happiness as well.
