Sometimes, our actions and deeds, simple at first glance, lead to some contradictions.
If we touch upon my favorite topic of life in the village and everything connected with it, then here we can see many contradictory moments in which we should find some kind of balance, arrange the variables in the equation in such a way that, in the end, we get the desired result.
As you know, in the village, the probability of neighboring mice, which will sometimes come to visit, is very high, and for an active fight against mice, most likely a decision will be made to get a cat that will hunt mice.
In this case, the development of the hunting instinct in the cat will be encouraged, the better it works, the better for us.
But, as a rule, such a hunter does not have a narrow specialization at all, I mean catching mice.
Most likely, the hunter will look at everything that moves, that is accessible in size, for example, chickens and ducklings.
As a result, we will not be able to explain anything to the cat, we only settle the cat in our own contradictions and the cat does not understand at all when he does the right thing, and when he does something stupid, for him both chickens and mice are equal, in most cases, when the cat did not graduate from a nature conservation university and did not receive a gold diploma for its completion.
Yes, there are exceptions, but, as a rule, cats act exactly like this and we, in order to save them from such contradictions, should come to terms with something, in this case with the loss of a chicken, or the presence of mice in our lives.
