Greta, is one of the smallest of the pack, she usually sleeps at the foot of my bed and sometimes I am very funny to see the poses she adopts to sleep, on several occasions I have seen her shaking when she sleeps and although it had caught my attention, I did not give it much importance, Until my dear little husband told me that this behavior was because he had parasites, I immediately told him that it was not and we even had a pseudo discussion, so I investigated why this behavior was due, if you want to know why your kitty trembles when sleeping, I invite you to continue reading this publication dedicated to cats for being #Caturday.
Luego de la discusión simbólica con mi esposo y desparasitar a la manada por si acaso, jajaja, procedí a realizar una investigación en internet y en todas las páginas que consulte conseguí la misma información, pero estructurada de diferente manera, la principal razón por la que nuestros gatitos pueden estar temblando al dormir es que están soñando entran en un estado profundo de sueño llamado REM, por sus siglas en inglés, pero ¿qué es el sueño o la fase del sueño llamado REM?
El cerebro pasa por ciclos con cinco fases distintivas: fase 1, 2, 3, 4 y el sueño de movimientos oculares rápidos (REM por sus siglas en inglés). El sueño REM representa el 25% del ciclo de sueño y ocurre por primera vez entre 70 y 90 minutos después de dormirse. Dado que los ciclos de sueño se repiten, se entra al sueño REM varias veces durante la noche.
Durante el sueño REM, el cerebro y el organismo se energizan y es cuando se sueña. Se considera que el sueño REM participa en el proceso de almacenamiento de recuerdos y aprendizaje y también ayuda a equilibrar el estado de ánimo, si bien no se entienden bien los mecanismos exactos.
After the symbolic discussion with my husband and deworming the herd just in case, hahaha, I proceeded to do some research on the internet and in all the pages I consulted I got the same information, but structured in a different way, the main reason why our kitties may be shaking when sleeping is that they are dreaming they enter a deep state of sleep called REM, but what is sleep or the sleep phase called REM?
The brain goes through cycles with five distinct phases: phase 1, 2, 3, 4 and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. REM sleep represents 25% of the sleep cycle and first occurs between 70 and 90 minutes after falling asleep. Because sleep cycles repeat, REM sleep is entered several times during the night.
During REM sleep, the brain and body are energized and this is when you dream. REM sleep is thought to be involved in the process of storing memories and learning and also helps balance mood, although the exact mechanisms are not well understood.
So, it is very likely that this is what is happening with your little furball, maybe he is dreaming placidly, as it has been proven that both dogs and cats can dream, also remember that domestic cats have the advantage of feeling really safe and secure in their homes which allows them to sleep deeply, but it is not the only reason or reason why your cat may shiver when sleeping.
Otro motivo por el que tu bigotudo pudiera estar temblando es tiene frio recordemos que a los gatos les gusta tomar baños de sol y en países donde hay temporadas de invierno muy duro o en días fríos ellos podrían verse afectados, esta posibilidad aumenta si su pelaje es corto son ancianos o bebes, así como solemos ver a los ancianos humanos abrigados y padecen constantemente de frio así ocurre con nuestros peludos, por ejemplo mientras escribo estas líneas tengo a Manchita a mi lado, hoy el día ha estado muy frio. ya que ha llovido casi todo el día, ella al tener aproximadamente 17 años y sufrir de artrosis, busca una fuente de calor, por otro lado, los bebes antes de su destete buscan siempre el calor de su madre y hermanos, por ello es un error soparlos de su madre antes de tiempo ya que padecen entre otras cosas de frio, así que si hace frio y tienes dudas abrígalo, tu gato estará feliz de ser más mimado, de lo ya seguramente es.
Another reason why your moustached cat could be shivering is because he/she is cold remember that cats like to take sun baths and in countries where there are very hard winter seasons or cold days they could be affected, this possibility increases if their fur is short they are old or babies, just as we usually see the old humans warm and constantly suffer from cold so it happens with our furry ones, for example while I write these lines I have Manchita next to me, today the day has been very cold. She is about 17 years old and suffers from arthrosis, she is looking for a source of warmth, on the other hand, babies before weaning always seek the warmth of their mother and siblings, so it is a mistake to take them away from their mother before time because they suffer from cold, so if it is cold and you have doubts, keep her warm, your cat will be happy to be more pampered than she already is.
Por último, pero no menos importante tu gato podría estar enfermo nadie conoce a tu gato mejor que tu y mas si tienes ya un tiempo viviendo con el o has tenido otros felinos, así que sabrás si su temblor esta dentro del rango normal o si hay algo extraño en su comportamiento, entre las causantes de temblores podrían estar las intoxicaciones, las fallas renales, hipoglicemia, el dolor. Como suelo recomendar, recomendar y señalar, el mas indicado para decirte si tu gato está en óptimas condiciones es el Medico Veterinario, ya que es el experto en la materia y ante cualquier duda lleva a tu minino a consulta.
Last but not least your cat could be sick nobody knows your cat better than you and even more if you have been living with him for a while or have had other felines, so you will know if his trembling is within the normal range or if there is something strange in his behavior, among the causes of tremors could be intoxications, kidney failures, hypoglycemia, pain. As I usually recommend, recommend and point out, the most indicated to tell you if your cat is in optimal conditions is the Veterinarian Doctor, since he is the expert in the matter and in case of any doubt, take your kitty to a consultation.
De la misma manera, en publicaciones anteriores les he comentado que hay veterinarios especialistas en conducta felina, la razón ellos también pueden sufrir de problemas de conducta y hasta psicológicos, debido a malas experiencias como el maltrato, esto también podrá desencadenar episodios de temblores en ellos, sobre todo en situaciones que para ellos son estresantes, como las visitas al veterinario, Salir de la casa, una mudanza o cualquier otra situación desagradable o que genere un cambio en su rutina.
n the same way, in previous publications I have commented that there are veterinarians specialized in feline behavior, the reason they can also suffer from behavioral and even psychological problems, due to bad experiences such as mistreatment, this can also trigger episodes of tremors in them, especially in situations that are stressful for them, such as visits to the vet, leaving the house, moving or any other unpleasant situation or that generates a change in their routine.
Para concluir y antes de despedirme debo decirles que gracias al comentario de mi esposo conocí un poco más a mis felinos y ahora disfruto mucho más y me encanta ver a mi querida Greta, dormir profundamente y soñar, estaría feliz y agradecida de saber que esta información les ha permitido conocer un poco más acerca de los mininos y si deseas me puedes dejar una lindas palabras en el cajón de comentarios.
To conclude and before saying goodbye I must tell you that thanks to my husband's comment I got to know my felines a little more and now I enjoy much more and I love to see my dear Greta, sleep deeply and dream, I would be happy and grateful to know that this information has allowed you to know a little more about the kittens and if you wish you can leave me a nice word in the comment box.
