“How does aluminum foil exist for them?” reads the caption shared with the video, which has already received over 10 million views, more than 260,000 likes, and thousands of comments from amused viewers.
“This might be the only reason I would get a cat,” joked an Instagram user. “I don’t understand why they are so afraid of aluminum foil,” said another. “I hope no animals got hurt, but dogs and cats shouldn’t be on kitchen counters,” added yet another.
Cats and Aluminum Foil
Many pet owners use aluminum foil as a powerful training tool to teach cats not to jump on certain surfaces, like kitchen counters, or to avoid interacting with specific objects, such as Christmas trees.
But why do felines dislike aluminum foil so much? According to experts, aluminum foil has some unique properties that make it particularly alarming for cats. When moved, crumpled, or stepped on, the foil emits a sharp, distinctive sound.
The sudden, high-pitched noise combined with the unusually smooth texture of the foil when the cat isn’t expecting it can cause sensory overload, quickly driving the feline away from the surface in question.
