Оглавление‘A kitten is chiefly remarkable for rushing about like mad at nothing whatever, and generally stopping before it gets there.’
AGNES REPPLIER
One curious behaviour of many a cat is to suddenly go for a mad dash around the room, first hurtling in one direction, then in another, before finally coming to a halt and returning to its more normal and placid state.
A reason cats do this is to help them release pent-up energy, particularly if they’ve been inactive for any length of time. In our own lives, there can be days when we don’t get much physical activity and our energy levels build up, sometimes causing restlessness and problems getting to sleep. Like cats, we too need to give ourselves the chance to release some of our excess energy. Going for a walk, exercising or carrying out any physical activity that requires a bit of exertion can often leave you feeling more relaxed and less stressed.
Like a cat, when you have too much energy, it can be helpful to let off steam.
