We vieren Wereld Komkommerdag met een heerlijke bange-katten-gifdump

Animal behaviour specialist Dr Roger Mugford reiterated this point to the Metro website saying, "I think that the reason why are cats afraid of cucumbers and the subsequent reaction is due to the novelty and unexpectedness of finding an unusual object secretly placed while their heads were down in the food bowl."

So perhaps if you placed a carrot there it might cause a similar reaction? Well, possibly. But it might also be the specific color of the cucumber which triggers the cats' response and makes them afraid, but why green?

Well, namely because they might be associating the color green with snakes which are a deadly predator. (Bron: voomed.com)

Hoe dan ook, het is vandaag Wereld Komkommerdag dus leek het ons een mooi moment om deze groene stengels te vereren met een gifdump. Met schrikkende katten.
