Ua like ia me ka lāʻau maʻamau, akā ʻoiaʻiʻo e hoʻopololei i nā pōpoki: catnip. No ke aha i nani ai ka mea kanu i kā mākou kitty? ʻAʻole maopopo nā kumu o kēia - ʻoiai ua nui nā noiʻi i hana ʻia ma kēia.
Ua ʻōlelo ka poʻe loea i ka catnip ma ke ʻano he ʻohana mint a puni ka makahiki. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻaʻole ʻo ia wale nō ka mea e nani ai ka mea kanu no nā pōpoki. Wahi a ke kauka lapaʻau ʻo Kauka Stephanie Austin, hoihoi nui ʻia i ka nepetalactone.
ʻO ka ʻala kahi ʻāpana o nā lau a me ke kumu o ka catnip, wehewehe ʻo ia iā "The Dodo". Me ke kōkua o nepetalactone, hoʻokuʻu ka mea kanu i nā iniseti - ʻo ka hopena i nā pōpoki ʻokoʻa loa.
Kōkua nā pōpoki i ka hoʻolaha ʻana i ka Catnip
Hoʻokomo ʻia nā pōpoki makua kāne i ka nepetalactone, ʻo ia ke kumu e loaʻa ai ka catnip maloʻo i kekahi manawa i nā pāʻani pōpoki. ʻAi kekahi mau pōpoki i nā pōpoki hou, no ka laʻana ma ka māla. Hoʻopili lākou i ko lākou poʻo a i ʻole kino iā ia a i kekahi manawa ʻo nā kitties e ʻōwili a puni i loko o ka mea kanu - he mea pono ia. No ka mea, i ka wā e hele ai nā pōpoki, pili pinepine nā hua Klaus i ka hulu a i kekahi manawa hāʻule i ka lepo. ʻAe kēia i ka laha ʻana o ka mea kanu.
I kēia manawa, ua noiʻi mua kekahi poʻe noiʻi i ke kumu o ka nani o ka catnip i kā mākou mau wāwae velvet. Eia naʻe, ʻaʻole ʻike ʻia nā kumu kūpono.
Ua ʻōlelo kekahi ʻatikala e hiki i ka catnip ke hana ma ke ʻano he aphrodisiac ma nā kitties - akā ua pane pū nā pōpoki neutered i kona ʻala, ka mea e pale ai i kēia hopena.
Ke noiʻi mau nei nā kānaka ʻepekema i ka Phenomenon Catnip
ʻO kekahi wehewehe ʻana ʻo ia ka hopena o nā pōpoki i ka mea kanu he genetic. Wahi a kēia, ma kahi o 70 pākēneka o nā pōpoki a pau e hoihoi i ka catnip. ʻO nā holoholona ʻōpio a me nā pōpoki kahiko loa e hōʻike iki i ka hoihoi liʻiliʻi. Ma waho aʻe o nā pōpoki hale, makemake pū nā pōpoki nunui e like me nā liona, nā jaguars, a me nā leopards i ke ʻala o ka mea kanu.
ʻO ka mea i hala koke iho nei, ua loaʻa i ka mea biochemist Sarah E. O'Connor a me kāna hui i kahi ʻike hoihoi i kahi noiʻi: Ua loaʻa iā lākou kahi enzyme ʻike ʻole ʻia. ʻO ia ke kuleana nui no ka hoʻokumu ʻana o ka cis-trans nepetalactone, i kaulana loa i nā pōpoki. Ke hiki aku keia mole i ka olfactory receptors i ka ihu o ka popoki, hooulu ia i ka popoki.
Pehea ka hana ʻana o ka mole i kēia hopena a ʻaʻole maopopo ke kumu o ka hana ʻana o nā pōpoki. Hōʻike ʻia kēia e ka makasina ʻepekema "Spectrum".
Ma ke ala: Me ka catnip maloʻo, hiki iā ʻoe ke hana i nā mea pāʻani maikaʻi no kāu kitty iā ʻoe iho.
