In our lives, we love some flavors very much. Some people like spicy foods and some like sweets. Do you know that pets at home have their own preferences for pets? Do dogs and cats have a sense of taste? What taste do cats and dogs hate? So do cats like the smell of dogs? Let’s talk about the taste of cats and dogs below!
Do dogs and cats have taste? The cat's taste
The cat's tongue is as full of taste buds as humans, but there is no taste in the middle of the tongue. Cats are only particularly sensitive to sour and bitter taste, and cats cannot taste sweetness due to genetic defects. In addition, cats' taste sensitivity is only 1/19 of that of humans. Generally speaking, cats' taste is not very good, so cats rely on their sense of smell to distinguish food. For cats, taste just helps them tell whether this food is generally edible? Is it difficult to eat? Is it broken?
But cats are very picky about water sources. Dog shovelers often find that there is water in their water basins, but they just like to go to drink water from other places, the water in the cup of the poop shovelers, and even the water in the toilet. The main reason is that cats like fresh water, so poop owners should often change the water for the cat, or prepare a special water dispenser for it.
Dog's taste
The dogs at home give us the feeling that they are very greedy and not picky about food. Sometimes dogs even like to rummage through the trash can to find food. Dogs are omnivorous animals, and their taste nerves are only distributed in the first 2/3 of the tongue, but the sweet taste buds perceived on the dog's tongue are very developed. Therefore, dogs have a special preference for sweets, and fructose and lactose are the favorites of dogs.
Dogs are very different from humans. Dogs are not able to understand the correlation between things, but they will remember them deeply about foods they don’t like to eat and will not eat them again later.
