Humans suffer from mood swings. Although a bad mood can change the whole day’s vibes it’s really important to be positive for social norms. Here come pets, especially cats that absorb negative energy away from you and not just their presence, but also their videos.
Psychologically watching too many cat videos affects the human brain and signals it to release happy hormones. That’s how this procedure impacts human brains. Although watching too many cat videos impacts human mood differently, I would like to talk about them.
Let’s start with CATS!
What You Should Know About Cats?
Cats (Expert Hunters) spend 6–8 hours in the wild to hunt for survival and enormously can make 100 different sounds. However, not all cats are such dangerous, but some are home friendly that you pet for your loneliness.
It’s a different debate that cats are highly cute and attractive in structure. With the word “STRUCTURE,” I recall a memory of a research read about cats with the topic “On the Rheology of Cats.” According to this research work, Cats Are Liquid, In Fact.
Rheology is the science of the deformation of materials that is derived from the word “Flow” by Eugene Bingham. In addition, this branch of study focuses on studying about Non-Newton Liquids.
Coming back to our topic, Marc-Antoine Fardin, a young French physicist, was awarded an Ig Nobel Prize for this research as per Wired. He proved that cats can be both liquid and solid simultaneously with general formulae for liquid sciences using Deborah Number.
De (Deborah Number) = T (Relaxation Time) / T (Experimental Time)
What Will Happen If You Watch Too Many Cat Videos?
Watching too many cat videos impacts you more than anything both in a negative and positive point of view. Some options may be positive according to my point of view and the same can be negative for you! Therefore, I will only describe the points in the following section.
Improves Mood
Consuming too much cat related visual content potentially improves your mood. As mentioned, cats absorb negative energy from your body and only positive vibes will survive in your body. That’s a reason why watching cat videos is so satisfying and comforting.
Imagine you are feeling clinky and don’t have such positive vibes and you just visit social media for scrolling. Further, you visit the profile of a cat content creator and continuously watch cat videos for entertainment. In that case, you will convert your mood into a happy mood.
Procrastination
Whether you say, it is a negative or a positive but watching too many cat videos causes procrastination. The more you tend to watch cat videos the more you become a procrastinating person all the time. You will delay each and every assignment on the next day and continue to do so.
Suppose you are a person who has a strict routine to follow and suddenly, you start watching cat videos. Watching too much cat related content will signal your brain to rest and engage in social media, which will make you a procrastinating person.
Emotion Regulation
Emotion regulation is a term that is used for the ability to control emotions and respond to an emotional state. In a healthy way, it is hard for a person to follow this routine, like reading, but a person who watches cat related content is capable of controlling emotions.
Controlling emotions is essential because raising high expectations will also raise anger if it is unfulfilled. There comes the cat related content that significantly helps you to control your anger and other emotions to respond to the situation healthily.
Why Are Cat Videos So Popular?
Cat videos or cat related content is so much famous because of their cuteness, relatability, and innocence that is seemed. That’s a reason why people watch cat related content more and they also consume cat related content because cats seem to be funny.
Why Are Cat Videos More Popular Than Dog Videos?
Cat related is more famous than dog videos because dogs are trying too hard, which provides a place for validation. On the other hand, cats seem funny and innocent at the same time which makes them pitiful. In addition, people like them for what they are acting not for what they are.
If dogs also look the same cute and innocent, then there are chances that dog videos will be more famous. Further, this scenario also applies the same on cats and other animals. As an old saying describes the situation, “What is seen is what is sold.”
As per Howstuffworks, Although an ancient belief nowadays science proves that cats absorb negative energy because cats have Devine Energy. Hopefully, they will get away with the negative energy because it attracts them and spreads only “Paw-sitive” energy.
