I have heard of being caught by a cat since I was a child. After all, cats have needle-punched claws. But what does it feel like to be caught by a cat through his pants? Some people say it will hurt if you are scratched by a cat, while others say you don’t feel anything, after all, there are barriers to your pants. So what's wrong with being caught by a cat through his pants?

1. What it feels like when you are caught by a cat

If you are not wearing clothes and are caught by a cat, it will be very painful for most people. Because cats have sharp claws and a needle-punching feeling, if they are caught on the skin, there will be a tingling feeling and bleeding will occur. But if you are caught by a cat through your pants, then it will not hurt so much. Because the material and thickness of the pants will block the grip of the cat's claws, the feeling of being grabbed will be very soft, as if it was brushed by, without any pain.

2. The cat's feeling

The cat's grasping action is not like an aggressive action, but an action that expresses love. For example, you will brush it with your hands, and it may grab you with your claws, indicating that it likes you, not that it is attacking you. So, being caught by a cat through his pants may also be expressing its love, rather than attacking you with its claws.

3. For cats, gravitation is a natural reaction for cats, especially when they see something they like, it is easier to initiate gravitation. For example, when they see an item, they will use their claws to grab instead of biting, because the cat's claws can be grasped very carefully, and the force of the grab can also be adjusted. Therefore, the cat's grasping action is more like an expression than an attack.

4. How to protect yourself

Although cats are mostly harmless, if you encounter those particularly active cats, the grabbing force may be relatively large, so it is best to pay attention to protecting yourself. For example, wear thicker clothes or cover the cat's grasping area, which can effectively reduce the cat's grasping strength and protect itself from harm.

5. How to educate cats

If you think the cat's grasping action is too active, then you can take some educational measures to help the cat express its love correctly. For example, when it catches you, you can warn it with a sound, or put it down and tell it is wrong to catch people. As long as you persist, the cat will learn to stop catching people hard.

In short, if you are caught by a cat through your pants, you will not feel any pain in most cases, and it may be that it is expressing its love, but sometimes the cat may grasp too much, so it is best to pay more attention to protect yourself, and at the same time you can educate the cat to learn to express its love correctly.
