why cats hid on Eid !
Overwhelming Sensory Overload
A cat's sense of smell is roughly 14 times stronger than a human's, and their hearing is highly sensitive.
The Smell of Blood: During Eid ul-Adha, the sudden, widespread scent of blood from the Qurbani (sacrifice) can deeply trigger a cat's survival instincts. In nature, a strong scent of blood signals danger, a major predator nearby, or a threat to their territory.
Unfamiliar Sounds: The loud bleating of goats, lowing of cattle, and unfamiliar butchers shouting or sharpening tools terrify cats. To them, these noises signify chaos and danger.
2. General Festivity and "Stranger Danger"
Even on Eid ul-Fitr, cats tend to go into hiding. Festivities bring a major disruption to a cat's highly valued daily routine:
Crowds: Houses are suddenly full of guests, relatives, and energetic children. Cats are naturally cautious around strangers. Feeling outnumbered, their instant response is to hide.
Rearranged Spaces: Shifting furniture to accommodate guests or bringing large sacrificial animals into yards and alleys disrupts their carefully mapped-out territory, causing anxiety.
