In the vast and diverse wrld f animals, there exist dd gestures that ften leave us humans puzzled and amazed. These gestures, which may seem strange r unusual t us, are actually fascinating glimpses int the unique behavirs and cmmunicatin styles f ur pets.
Animals want ur attentin, and smetimes they’re quite bvius abut asking fr it. Odd gesture are ften ur pets’ way f telling us t stp what we’re ding and play with them. It’s why Fid cnstantly fllws his tail and why Kitty keeps rlling arund. An extremely bred pet may chse “bad” behavirs t cause a reactin!
Sure, yur dg lves yu, but that’s nt why he’s licking (舔) yur face. A little dg learns t lick his mther’s muth t btain a little fd, s Spt isn’t kissing yu in ur sense f the wrd; he just wants a snack.
Cat wners als misinterpret their pets’ kisses. While a cat might lick yu t shw lve, smetimes she’ll d it t cmfrt herself. One way t tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it ges n fr a lng perid f time.
At sme pint yu’ve prbably tld these wrds t smene wh made yu angry. Dgs think similarly, aviding eye cntact with anyne wh injures their feelings. Anther sign f anger: yawning (打哈欠).

Whether it’s biting yur nails, r ging t bed at 2 a.m., we all have thse annying habits we just can’t seem t kick. But have yu ever wndered why these bad habits keep winning the battle against yur best effrts and intentins?
Humans are creatures f habit, and ur brains lve ding things the same way. That’s why bad habits grw easily in the repeated actins like absentmindedly reaching fr a cigarette. Anther reasn why yur bad habits keep winning is that they ften prvide a quick dpamine (多巴胺) fix, creating a desire that keeps yu cming back fr mre. Think f the immediate relaxatin frm a cigarette r mindless snacking. The payff fr ding these things is quick and easy, which is exactly what makes them s hard t break.
S what can yu d? There are tw main prblems with breaking bad habits. First, it’s nt as enjyable as giving in t them. When we try t resist, there’s n pleasure, n dpamine and therefre n encuragement t keep ding s. Rather than trying t remve them entirely, try t replace them with smething healthier instead, r create a reward system fr yurself t intrduce the psitive behaviur.
Secnd, a habit is ften an uncnscius (无意识的) actin, s making it cnscius changes it int a chice. Yu’d better start with an intentinal actin. Accepting yur actins withut judgement helps yu stay apart frm the emtins that keep yu tied t thse habits, like guilt, shame and dissatisfactin. This increased awareness will lead yu t make mre intentinal chices and break the autmatic cycle f bad habits.
Knwing the psychlgy behind why yur bad habits keep winning hpefully gets yu t make mre cnscius, psitive chices, and build the fundatin fr lasting behaviur change.

Jsie and I wanted a dg mre than anything else n Earth. At night, we’d slip ut t the rf t talk abut dgs after ur parents went t bed.
One summer night, as we sat tgether n the rf, Jsie saw smething. “What’s that?” She pinted dwn tward a dark shadw n ur driveway. I fllwed her finger and saw a big, black dg with lng, shaggy hair. We climbed dwn the rf. Jsie made a little kissing nise and held ut her hand. The dg apprached slwly. When it was clse enugh t pet, I petted it gently. It was s skinny that I culd just feel every bne, and its fur was messy and full f dirt. It seemed t be a hmeless dg.
We decided t bring it sme fd. I slid int the kitchen t fill a bwl with milk and a cuple f raw eggs. As sn as the dg finished, it disappeared int the bushes.
The next day, we used all ur pcket mney t buy dg fd, including tw cans f Wf Buddies, a small bag f kibble (狗粮), and beef tailbnes. We hid the fd as we were afraid ur parents wuldn’t apprve f us feeding a hmeless dg.
That night, as sn as we set a plate dwn, the dg appeared almst as if frm nwhere. It nsed the fd, but fr sme reasn the dg wuldn’t eat it.
“Cme n,” I said. “Let’s leave the dg alne and see what happens.” S we went in and hid t see. Unexpectedly, it grabbed the plate in its muth and ran away. By the time we rushed back utside, the dg and the fd were lng gne.
This went n a lng time — fur r five nights, maybe. The mst unusual thing was that even thugh the dg kept taking the fd, it didn’t seem t be putting n any weight. Instead, it was getting even skinnier.
Then came that special night. The dg came, but this time it barked (犬吠) at us, whined (哀叫), and ran back and frth. I ran my hand thrugh its fur, “What’s it? What d yu want?”
