The Curious Case of Cats and Olives: A Viral Video Reveals the Science Behind the Craving
Why are cats obsessed with olives? A recent viral video explores the surprising reason behind this feline fascination. The video, created by ExpertoAnimal, explains that olives contain isoprenoids, chemicals similar to those in catnip. These compounds activate receptors in the cat's vomeronasal organ, leading to a stimulating effect. "Olives often drive our little felines crazy due to their composition," explains ExpertoAnimal. The video shows several cats exhibiting playful and excited behaviors around olives, supporting the claim. While not all cats react this way, the video's popularity highlights a shared curiosity among cat owners. The video's success underscores the enduring fascination with our feline companions and the mysteries of their behavior.
