Smell plays an important role in every cat's life. The smell is showcase of the cat . It is also a valuable tool for communication. Scent is used to identify members of the same colony,define territory, create familiarity, learn more about unfamiliar cats in the environment.
Scent glands release pheromones. These are the chemicals used to convey information. For cats that go out or live free, scent communication is extremely important because it helps to communicate information.
The scent glands around the face are identified as friendly or low-intensity. Cats use them to identify familiar objects that belong to the territory, and also during behavior that reinforces the bond between individuals, such as rubbing their heads.With these gestures the cat calms down and shows that he feels safe and knows the territory.
The scent glands in his paw pads are use when he scratches objects for marking. Except to leaving a visual mark from his claws, he leaves an olfactory mark through the scent glands.

    The smell of cat's urine is one of the most unpleasant smells in the world and very difficult to get rid of, once it has been left by the cat.

Would you like to turn vegetarian? Why?

-
I would like to become a vegetarian for moral and ethical reasons. People kill innocent and defenseless animals to satisfy their own needs, they are really selfish, they feel a stronger species, so they started to rule over the weaker species, just because animals have no voice and can not defend themselves. People decide about the life of other animals, decide which animals are to eat and which to love and live in the house. People totally and without any scruples subjugated the lives of animals without thinking that animals are also living creatures and have the right to life.

Apparently, school grades should motivate us at school, but it's just the opposite, they more often demotivate us. At school, we should learn to organize our work, our school duties should teach us organization but it is not. Most students don't know and can't  plan their time well. It is very important in life to deal with stress in difficult situations, school doesn't teach it, and as it already tries, these are activities that don't help. Assessments and competition between students cause an increase in stress that not everyone can manage.  School should teach us how to work in a group and communic...
