The dogs are big enough to rely on brute force and technique in most cases to get the job done e.g pushes and shoves. The cats on the other hand not as big as the dogs and so have to be more deft and as you can see they try using their paws more
Essentially have hands and still did a worse job than the dogs. Yeah it's no contest. These dogs are way smarter than that cat. That being said though the dogs are adorable and that cat is gorgeous.
@@gp4868 lol the video says true. The dogs did way better. Cats even had a advantage of paws being able to fit in the cup alone and able to grab with paws still did worse. Cat had to have help dogs didn't. Can't had plenty of force to knock over object and lift it. It was simply just out performed.
The experiment proves what I suspected when I saw the title, comparing intelligence between species is problematic. The dogs and cats solved the problems in different ways, based on their instinctive skills. Also, the size of the containers should have been reduced to account for the smaller cats.

True. We're only just starting to understand that certain lizards, like monitors, are a lot smarter than we once thought but their brand of intelligence differs from our own and dogs and cats.
I'm a neuroscientist and I can tell you: hand and face coordination is a hell of a skill! Kitty might have failed to complete the task with the glass bell, but the fact she thought of using her snout and paw at the same time and almost managed to pop it open is fantastic. It requires so much more skills that pushing a glass down and wait for physical forces to drive the treat out. (I'm a dog person, but gotta give it to the cat, little murderous genius)
I didn't see a lot of planning from either group. The saw the treat, and tried bee-lines to them. I have seen especially intelligent cats at the shelter who might have reasoned out "pull the glass over, then get the treat" but I think that's a rare thing among pets. Crows and ravens would do it though, and perhaps squirrels.

I used to have a cat that could open the cage at the vets, he was taken in to be neutered next thing the veterinary nurses realised the cage was open & he was following the nurses around the surgery, he also did it again when he had to have an operation on his tail same thing opened the cage & got out.. little Houdini.. lol
Years ago my cat watched me put her food in a jar and close the lid. I heard a thump the next day and quietly watched as my cat laid her body on the jar to stabilize it while using her paw to open the lid. I called her name and she jumped up and looked at me guilty. I swear she was a human in a cat's body.
My first cat, Chita, was so smart, that many years after her passing, talking about her I said to my friend that Chita was very smart, to which my friend replied: “Chita wasn’t a cat. She was human”. Never seen a smarter cat than my beloved baby Chita. 😢
@@chitto_horizon yeah, she would open doors. She would especially let my dog out of the bathroom during bath time. They would team up on me as they both were extremely and creepily smart lol.

Dogs tend to use more brute force combined with a bit of rough clumsiness, while cats use a softer approach with more finesse. It depends on the test what works best for each.
Ikr, it's weird to compare them since Dog's noses r better than cats,yet cats have better legs than dogs,they r totally different, cannot compare them.
@@andreasplosky8516 you get my thoughts wrong, because I'm an animal lover,and you say compare dogs to cats or vise versa in biological field,but this one,I actually don't like that,they say "dogs/cats r better", that's why I totally disagree with them,I respect both cats and dogs lovers even I'm more of a dog lover.
When my cat was still alive, she would meow intensely in front of my bedroom door until I opened it. Times when I didn’t, and she opened the door herself by pushing the doorknob down and pushing the door at the same time. I miss her so much. Thank you for your memories.
I had a cat in my teen years and she would jump on the door handle and open it without any issues. Loved that cat, I think I will do a video on my channel on intelligence of a cat 🐱 ❤
It was a bit harder for the cats because a lot of the "puzzles" could be easily solved by pushing the glass around, which dogs are predisposed to do with their nose. The cats were definitely a bit confused by the glass though.
My cat would have literally looked at that glass and immediately walked away “no treat is worth this much effort” Unrelated: it’s the cutest thing in the world when cats pick up food with their stupid, adorable, little kitty-boy paws and shove it in their mouth
Reminded me when 20 years ago i had mice in my house. My cat never tried to catch them but waited till mouse trap triggers and then ran to me and asked to give it to him
To be fair, dogs are able to easily move the glass by simply pushing because of the strength they have, the cat doesn't have that kind of strength so it requires a lot more skill and still managed to do it, plus it seems that cats have a problem seeing translucent objects such as glass.
Eh it's an instinct thing, makes sense considering most of their prey live in small tight spaces, like burrows, tree hollows, in between rocks and what not. Unfortunately the evolutionary pressure didn't prepare cats for the deathtraps that are jars and glasses
I once did an intelligent test on my parents' two cats: Squeaky and Zipper. I put Squeaky under a laundry basket. He just sat there. I put Zipper under the laundry basket. He moved it to a doorway with a raised threshold and used it to lift the laundry basket enough to slip under it. Zipper was a damn smart cat. He would even steal my sandwiches if I left them sitting beside me.
Thank you for this wonderful story ❤️❤️ My cat Beth is trying to knock food out of my hand during dinner. Or he pulls his paw to steal a piece from the plate. 😄
We had a Maine Coon cat who was super intelligent. He not only figured out how to open a fanning door by himself, but when we got a new cat he tried to teach it how to open the door by demonstrating how to open it, then pushing it back closed (something he ordinarily did not bother doing), then demonstrating again how to open it by pulling at the right spot, and made sure the other cat was watching. If you held him up to a regular door he wanted to go through, he'd try to turn the knob by gripping with both paws and twisting it. If he wanted to go out, he had a meow that sounded amazingly like "out". He also understood a fair number of words. He'd also do things like stare down dogs barking at him when we took him for a walk, and wait until they sheepishly looked away, then proceed with his walk again. By the same token, we've had dumb cats too. And smart and dumb dogs. And smart and dumb budgies. The problem with testing some animals is: What if it doesn't feel like working its way out from under a basket, or whatever test you come up with?
I know it’s very rude for cats to look each other in the eyes. I had two cats who always sat so as not to make eye contact. My little cat Twinkie would slap my big orphan Sherlock around. I think sometimes it was because of side eye. 😮
He cunningly sits back and watches whatever I do. Opening doors, how i eat and pick my food, even how i lay down. He copies everything. Sits at the dining table on his chair and scoops food off his plate into his mouth. He sleeps on his back, arms on his chest, like me😂
I had a Maine Coon like that. He would copy all your activities. And stare at you while doing it, super errie. It felt very much like he was trying to figure out how to be human. When you pet him he would stare at you and pet you back.
So, my wife and I have a house full of kitties and I'll tell you this, they are very smart critters and some of the things I've watched them do just amazes me!
Cute, although cross species problem solving is impossible to really quantify. I remember once placing a hat over a cat treat by accident and my kitty just moved the hat to get the treat. I was so proud of him as well as not quite prepared for him to casually do something pretty smart.
Indeed cross species problem solving have a heavy issue in result checking. As not human beings, the validity of tests and the pet effective commitment is difficult to determine, less more to determine against other species.
We can 100 percent quantify the differences (e.g. how long did it take, how many attempts, etc.) The issue here, as well as with people, is that the sample size is too small to mean anything. All of your concerns would resolve themselves over a large enough pool of samples.
@@joelsdogbehavior We can objectively quantify the differences but the results you'll get are their ability to solve this specific series of problems. It does not actually test for intelligence, just suitability for a series of problems.
@@Arkayjiya you could say the same about every iq test, personality test, and psychology test in general-- we resolve those concerns by simply having multiple challenges within a single test and accounting for individual variation and consistency across challenges. We than chart individual varation across challenges against group variation and the result is the field of statistics...
monty and Yuki have a mischievous personality , but Saga is more well-behaved and kind . I think that the characters of dogs are more pronounced than their intelligence, that is, they are quite intelligent because they have pronounced personalities
Dogs from spitz family have some cat like traits. Say Shiba inus (which my family has) are known to have cat like behavior. For instance they clean themselves and never need bath
This is so funny! My cat will dip his foot in and pull stuff out of a glass with no hesitation whatsoever. Usually it's treats but he likes to play with cherry pits and blueberries so sometimes I put those in for him to dip out. He's lightning fast! He can also get an automatic feeder (the ones that run on a timer) open in less than 3 minutes flat. I've tried every feeder I could find and none have passed the Lux test yet :D Actually feeding toys are really great for both cats and dogs. It satisfies their natural instinct to make some effort for food, plus it's so much fun to watch them figure it out - entertainment for all!
Interesting! For anyone trying it out: just keep in mind the walls of the glass have be to thick enough (like in the video). Thin glasses break easily when bitten by a dog (or a cat, even)
That just show how clever dogs are Anyway...i doubt cat can break a glass by biting it...heck they literally haver weaker bite force than human(unlike dogs)
@@minisithunknown5568 wtf does that have to do with any of this? Also, "lazy" is not the right word. You wouldnt call humans lazy for sleeping 8 hours a day.
I remember watching Nova: Dogs Decoded (or something similar) and they were talking about the connection dogs have to humans. As an example they put food inside a cage and first let a wolf into the room. The wolf circled and circled the cage getting increasingly frustrated trying to get the food. Then the repeated the experiment with a dog. The dog circled once or twice but very quickly turned to the humans as if to say "C'mon opposable thumbs! Help me out here!" I think that's pretty significant. We humans tend to fixate on an individual's intelligence, but the irony is our success as a species lie in our social ties - the fact that we share knowledge is key.
I love dogs but there's a bit more to consider here.. "..But cats certainly aren't dumb. Their brains may be small compared to ours, occupying only about 0.9 percent of their body mass compared to about 2 percent in an average human and about 1.2 percent in an average dog. But size doesn't always matter. Neanderthals, the hominids that went extinct more than 20,000 years ago, had bigger brains than Homo sapiens, but they probably weren't smarter than the Homo sapiens that beat them in the survival game. Surface folding and brain structure matter more than brain size. Unlike the brains of dogs, the brains of cats have an amazing surface folding and a structure that is about 90 percent similar to ours. The cerebral cortex of cats is greater and more complex compared to that of dogs. The cerebral cortex is the part of the brain responsible for cognitive information processing. A cat's cerebral cortex contains about twice as many neurons as that of dogs. Cats have 300 million neurons, whereas dogs have about 160 million. In fact, cats have more nerve cells in the visual areas of their brain, a part of cerebral cortex, than humans and most other mammals. Like brain size, number of neurons in the cerebral cortex may not be a good indicator of intelligence. But it's a better indicator than brain size. The cerebral cortex is the seat of rational decision making and complex problem solving. It also interprets inputs from the senses and from emotional processing that occurs subcortically. It is involved in the planning of action, the interpretation of language (or other forms of communication), and it is responsible for the storage of short-term and long-term memory. Cats have longer-lasting memories than dogs, especially when they learn by doing rather than seeing."

Yes, humans without learning are stupid and the fact that we invented writing is the biggest reason of cumulative accelerated learning and tool progression
This is not really a test of IQ, a dog will always work much harder for food than a cat... a cat has patience. And still this all comes down to the individual animal and breed. Still its a cute video. 👍
It's hard to tell that dogs or cats r smarter than one another,yet there's confirmation of biologist (or someone like that) said dogs were smarter than cats (current results),I don't think so
@@Rabendaa538_- dogs smarter… their evolution builded mich more different Than another animals! (I mean the whole canis types like wolf, wild dogs, dogs)
@@NorthYukiHuskyI made some liver and had to wait until the power came back, and had to do stuff so I left it with a heavy metal lid and put some cans on top for good measure. My cat does like treats, but not as much as liver. Maybe she'd give up with your experiments, but there's nothing she wouldn't do to get to eat liver. It wasn't long before I found the cans on the floor, the lid off and the cat undoing 2 of the 4 seals of the container. The male is food motivated, but not to that point, and I'd say the female is of average cat intelligence. If the male had been more food motivated, he'd maybe have been more delicate in his approach.
My cats once got into their sealed plastic food container without breaking the container or knocking it over. To this day I don't know how. The only dogs I've had that did that got in by destroying the container. Dogs seem to rely on brute force while cats seem more cunning, but dogs also tend to be larger. It'd be interesting to see the same experiments done with a smaller dog, one closer to a cat in size.
@@NorthYukiHusky Oh, that's an interesting point! Would a cougar approach the problem like a dog or like their smaller relatives? Would a chihuahua (or other small dog) approach the problem like a cat or dog?
I had a Bassett hound who opened a latched cooler, opened a pack of hotdogs, sucked all the hotdogs out, then closed the cooler lid... bassetts are brutal when it comes to stealing food! A friend of mine had one who somehow broke into someone's cabin and ate all the meat in their fridge lol.
I think a smaller dog would not be able to get the food. The size and strenght of the dogs made it a lot easier for them, so in this case the cat had to put more effort to have the same results.
My cat opened our 45l oven with the whole roasted chicken inside.. the chicken was intended for Christmas Noche Buena 😂 oh well, it was the cat who had fun at Noche Buena 🤣
My last cat was super smart, because I encouraged him to solve puzzles from kittenhood. He knew how to get something inside of a box, under a box, under another box, each opening from a different direction. Sometimes, he was too smart for my own good. 😸
@@halfprince I didn't use treats to teach Manhattan how to solve puzzles. I used his toys. I think he enjoyed learning as much as I enjoyed watching him learn. He knocked my Rubbermaid tall kitchen trash can on its side, and played in it, so I let him have it (clean, of course). One day I put a box in there, the opening facing out, then put a ball in it. After he got that ball, I put the same ball in the same box, but with the opening facing to the side, then to the back, then facing down. After he figured out all of those puzzles, I started stacking boxes, with the openings facing in different directions. Nothing stopped him. He just kept learning. He was an amazing cat. The thing is, he learned to assess a situation. For instance, my closets had accordion doors. When he couldn't open them from the end, as he had in the last place we'd lived, he watched the way it moved when I opened it. Eventually, he went to the center of the door, and pulled on one of them. It moved, so he went to see if his head could fit through the opening he'd created. He did that three or four times before he could fit in. After that, he knew how much he had to pull before he could get into the closet. We moved to an apartment that didn't have accordion doors. Three years later, we stayed in my brother's apartment, and his closets had accordion doors. Manhattan went right up to the coat closet, and opened the door. He remembered three years later. My sister used to call him Einstein. I really miss that cat. Oh, something funny… Before he commandeered the trash can for his playhouse, I started seeing his toys in it. I couldn't figure out how they got there, but one day walked in on him putting one in there. He was copying me. He just didn't know that the stuff that went into that container was going to be thrown away. He was so cute.
I had a ragdoll who learned by observation to open doors. We had handles, not knobs, so it was possible for him to grasp them if he just reached up. We also had a Tonkinese at the time, and I saw her try the same trick once, but she wasn't big enough to reach.
Dogs are not smarter in this context. They use their brutal power to roll the glass. Cat used her paws like human’s hand. She was even more talented and polite
The cat tried to shove its head in, multiple times, and then went with the paw. It took virtually no intelligence to do that. It basically did the most no-thought, instinctual thing that any creature that consumes food would do, and it only succeeded because its paws have the dexterity to eventually scrape the food out of the hole. It even forgot that a few times and tried its head again. The dogs on the other hand could not use their paws for these tasks in the same way, and they understood that. They were forced to examine each situation as something slightly different, and actually solve it like a puzzle. Sometimes using inertia, sometimes using the variable height of the carpet and hardwood, sometimes just figuring out the right way to flip it over or roll it. The dogs demonstrated a massively higher intelligence than the cats. It's not even close. If the cats head and paws both failed, it had nothing left. That's why it needed help on the one container.
I did something similar with two of my previous cats once. Resulted in one of them eating all of her food by sticking it on her claws for the rest of her life, after she figured out she had to stick her paw in to fish treats out... 🤣 Almost as if she afterwards resented smearing her face with food and instead went for the "fork"
Looks like cat trying to solve the problem with minimal damage possible. Just like an assassin, no needs to use bruteforce. And I like the way cat sitting on the background and watching the dogs, like "Dude, seriously?! Just grab them with your paw!"
I think Saga is actually one of the smarter ones! Just overly cautious, doesn’t want to upset daddy by knocking over things needlessly. Once it’s clearly safe, they know to rock the glass in a back and forth motion!
I think what is more impressive is those dogs didn't break the cups and were very cautious about handling glass, they were all gentle. Where as that doesn't really matter to the cat.
Monty had me laughing for a full minute with his i-hope-my-tounge-is-long-enough stint! Reminded me of myself when I was a kid trying to lick melted chocolate stuck at the bottom of a glass. Haha
Both seem to have had more accidental victories than planned ones. It should have been really easy for a dog to pick up the glass with it's jaw, but none thought about it, nor did they use their paw... Cats use instinctively their paws, but it wasn't nearly as good as it could have been.
I largely agree that these tests had an element of luck which were shown in the video. Perhaps to truly test IQ, we will need to remove the luck variable and solely focus on ability. But that is another problem
They're like people, some are better at problem soling than others. I have two cats, one would be able to do all of these without a problem and would be very motivated to. The other; she wouldn't care at all. We have a puzzle treat dispenser that requires them to pull out boxes using their paws, as well as slide panels out of the way. One cat gets all the treats out every time, the other requires some help to get any treats 😅
it is so fun to spy on your cats teaching each others some tricks. We rescued a cat when I was a young girl, and she was much cleverer than our tom cat. One day, I saw her showing him how to open a cupboard as she had got used to stealing before we tamed her. He was looking at what she was doing very closely like a well behaved pupil lol.
Honestly, I don't know if the dogs understood anything other than that they need to push the object with their nose or paw to get the treat. I have played similar games with my dogs, and I think it's easy to confuse aggressiveness (pushing really hard) with intelligence.
On the second test, Saga seemed to learn from watching the glass roll from side to side causing the treats to spill out. It looked to me like she tried rocking the glass in the same way to get to the last treat.
It's not the use of brute force what makes us think they're intelligent, is the fact that they were able to understand that using brute force will solve their problem at hand. Brains also includes your ability to know how to use your muscle too.
Each used the tools they had; A nose, a paw, a claw, push, pull, a head bump. I don’t think any of them actually solved the problem with thought, but used instinct. Therefore, I conclude they’re equal.
Depends on the dog and the cat. My Maine Coon was shockingly smart. I once witnessed him execute and entire hunting plan, that involved dashing out the flap in the front door, around the block of houses, which takes a few minutes, then silently sneaking over the back fence (which is usually a loud, clambering affair)... to blindside a rat that was scurrying back and forth 6ft from the wide open back door. But my boy knew he had no cover for a direct attack, and the rat would see him, so he made a complex plan to approach from cover. I've never seen a dog do anything that deliberate.
Cats are good at solo hunting, dogs would need to probably have a group present to have the same efficacy. Not sure what this says about intelligence but in terms of being a predator cats are apparently extremely crafty
You don't know dogs very well, they routinely use deception in some cases, a border terrier we had used to steal his brothers bone by rushing out barking into the garden as if he'd seen a cat (there was nothing there), his brother would rush out after him and he would immediately run back in and grab the bone.
@@glochidiatus We have two basset hound puppies, Millie and Maisy. Today we learned that Millie is con artist. We observed her fight with Maisy TO THE DEATH over a plastic bottle after Maisy stole it from her. Then Millie calmed down, and allowed Maisy to chew on it while she went for a drink of water. I was pleasantly surprised. Maisy, being a stinker, wasn't really interested in the bottle if Millie and her couldn't squabble over it. So she went over to drink water with Millie. Millie slithered back to the bottle and this time wasn't going to give it up so easily. Maisy was still drinking when she realized that she had been fooled. I can think of all sorts of words to describe bassets, but "wily" was not one of them until recently.🐺
It's all about thinking out of the box. Both species are very intelligent creatures, if you think about it. The cat was smart enough to use the help from It's owners hand even if it came spontanly. They are both pretty smart animals in their own ways.
Saga was so careful not to destroy anything, wonderful. I fully expected cats to just slam the glass and get what they want, in my experience cats don't give a crap about destroying stuff lol
Indeed. The dogs had more strength and could use force for more successful trial and error. Probably would a crow or a pig have made more intelligent moves ;)
It's nice to meet you, friend. That was such a fun video. It was interesting how the different doggies handled the situations and then the kitties too. It was also interesting how they were all good at different challenges. Thank you for sharing! 😸💗
Monty is the only dog that really understood that the same problem can be solved by many ways, so he had to try many of them to found the best solution. And all cats have a nice understanding that they can influence their environment using their extremitys. Cats havea better self conscience on their own body, dogs barely remember that they have two other legs on their backside. And a tail. Cats are so nice builded in physiollogical terms, all working like an efficient machine, that they haven't to bother about coordination or things like that, so they can focus on solving problems. But the hipersociability on dogs avoid them to observe the smarter, their master, and eventually imitate him for essential and non essential solutions.
It’s amazing how Saga didn’t want to mess with the glass and gently move it until she got out the meat. It’s like thinking, there must be a way of keeping it organized but still getting my reward. Lol
Years ago I had a mixed breed dog from a shelter. Not long after getting him, while going through divorce, I had stayed with my parents for a few days/weeks until I could find a place. My dog had never been to their house before. (they lived in a row home in town) I couldnt take him there, because they had pets, and were concerned about them getting along. I had an uncle who lived about a mile away, in a more rural area, who allowed me to put his dog house in his yard, and chain him up there until I found a place. He was in a body harness, and chained to a tree. The next morning, he was scratching at the door at my parents house (after I had left for work) He spent the day being friendly and playing with the other pets, so my parents gave in. That was one smart dog. I miss him.
How lovely they are! I love their faces when you place the treat inside the glass out of their reach hahaha I was only concerned about the possibility of the glass to break. An acrylic cup would be safer I think. Anyway, nice video!
Hi friend your dog is so smart and adorable Thank you very much for sharing this video and I believe that you will upload new more videos, Thanks ♥️♥️😻😻🐕🐈
Such an awesome video 😂 I love how the cat got its murder mittens all in there! 😼 I'm a total cat person myself, but the dogs are adorable too! You have very beautiful pets ❤
Not a fair competition....dogs are stronger, and can knock or flip things over. The only time a cat can knock or flip things over, is when the glass is half full of liquid, and is sitting next to your computer or important papers. Also, cats can reach into spaces with their claws, whereas dogs do not have that ability. (I used to have maine coons...they would actually scoop up certain foods with their paws, to eat ) Another observation....dogs will eat just about anything...cats are finicky, and will purposely take their time before they grace our food offerings with acceptance. Great Video!!

I heard a thump the next day and quietly watched as my cat laid her body on the jar to stabilize it while using her paw to open the lid. I called her name and she jumped up and looked at me guilty. I swear she was a human in a cat's body.
Thank you so much for sharing this interesting story ❤️❤️
My first cat, Chita, was so smart, that many years after her passing, talking about her I said to my friend that Chita was very smart, to which my friend replied: “Chita wasn’t a cat. She was human”. Never seen a smarter cat than my beloved baby Chita. 😢

Dogs tend to use more brute force combined with a bit of rough clumsiness, while cats use a softer approach with more finesse. It depends on the test what works best for each.

The way dogs look at the owner hiding the treat: “Why can’t you just give it to me?”

They were over it especially Yuki lol 😆 😂
That look alone suggests they're highly intelligent 😂
"What happened to you, why are you making things harder" f**k
Truly "puppy dog eyes" 🥺
When my cat was still alive, she would meow intensely in front of my bedroom door until I opened it. Times when I didn’t, and she opened the door herself by pushing the doorknob down and pushing the door at the same time. I miss her so much. Thank you for your memories.
Christine, we're sorry for your loss 🙏 Yes, Cats can open the door like that 😊
I had a cat in my teen years and she would jump on the door handle and open it without any issues. Loved that cat, I think I will do a video on my channel on intelligence of a cat 🐱 ❤
My Husky used to open my room door the same way. He would always barge in uninvited with a triumphant expression on his face
No matter what the result they are all so adorable😍
It was a bit harder for the cats because a lot of the "puzzles" could be easily solved by pushing the glass around, which dogs are predisposed to do with their nose. The cats were definitely a bit confused by the glass though.
But cats are more dexterous with their paws 😅

Why stupid? Their paws are amazing.
To be fair, dogs are able to easily move the glass by simply pushing because of the strength they have, the cat doesn't have that kind of strength so it requires a lot more skill and still managed to do it, plus it seems that cats have a problem seeing translucent objects such as glass.
Bro every at in this video was strong enough to push over the glass 😂😂
lol the glass is so light cats can do the same i’m sure
I love it how cats first instinct is to dive head in first into containers, even if can't fit into it.
That doesn't make them smart. Sticking your head in where you can't get out is a so-so occupation 🙀😂

@@NorthYukiHusky it can be indeed lethal in certain situations as the fur can prevent the head from moving out of the container.

He would even steal my sandwiches if I left them sitting beside me.

@@NorthYukiHusky 2
We had a Maine Coon cat who was super intelligent. He not only figured out how to open a fanning door by himself, but when we got a new cat he tried to teach it how to open the door by demonstrating how to open it, then pushing it back closed (something he ordinarily did not bother doing), then demonstrating again how to open it by pulling at the right spot, and made sure the other cat was watching. If you held him up to a regular door he wanted to go through, he'd try to turn the knob by gripping with both paws and twisting it. If he wanted to go out, he had a meow that sounded amazingly like "out". He also understood a fair number of words. He'd also do things like stare down dogs barking at him when we took him for a walk, and wait until they sheepishly looked away, then proceed with his walk again. By the same token, we've had dumb cats too. And smart and dumb dogs. And smart and dumb budgies. The problem with testing some animals is: What if it doesn't feel like working its way out from under a basket, or whatever test you come up with?
I know it’s very rude for cats to look each other in the eyes. I had two cats who always sat so as not to make eye contact. My little cat Twinkie would slap my big orphan Sherlock around. I think sometimes it was because of side eye. 😮
My himalayan cat also opens door. One i was locked out and he jumped up and open it from the inside. Before he opened it he yelled and cried at me 😂
He cunningly sits back and watches whatever I do. Opening doors, how i eat and pick my food, even how i lay down. He copies everything. Sits at the dining table on his chair and scoops food off his plate into his mouth. He sleeps on his back, arms on his chest, like me😂
I had a Maine Coon like that. He would copy all your activities. And stare at you while doing it, super errie. It felt very much like he was trying to figure out how to be human. When you pet him he would stare at you and pet you back.
So, my wife and I have a house full of kitties and I'll tell you this, they are very smart critters and some of the things I've watched them do just amazes me!
Thanks Brain 😻😻😻
I like how Yuki is almost always judging you whenever u made it do something difficult. Like " Seriously?" 😂
Cute, although cross species problem solving is impossible to really quantify. I remember once placing a hat over a cat treat by accident and my kitty just moved the hat to get the treat. I was so proud of him as well as not quite prepared for him to casually do something pretty smart.
Indeed cross species problem solving have a heavy issue in result checking. As not human beings, the validity of tests and the pet effective commitment is difficult to determine, less more to determine against other species.
Even individuals are different, too. Same thing for humans
We can 100 percent quantify the differences (e.g. how long did it take, how many attempts, etc.) The issue here, as well as with people, is that the sample size is too small to mean anything. All of your concerns would resolve themselves over a large enough pool of samples.
@@joelsdogbehavior We can objectively quantify the differences but the results you'll get are their ability to solve this specific series of problems. It does not actually test for intelligence, just suitability for a series of problems.
@@Arkayjiya you could say the same about every iq test, personality test, and psychology test in general-- we resolve those concerns by simply having multiple challenges within a single test and accounting for individual variation and consistency across challenges.

This is so funny! My cat will dip his foot in and pull stuff out of a glass with no hesitation whatsoever. Usually it's treats but he likes to play with cherry pits and blueberries so sometimes I put those in for him to dip out. He's lightning fast! He can also get an automatic feeder (the ones that run on a timer) open in less than 3 minutes flat. I've tried every feeder I could find and none have passed the Lux test yet :D
Actually feeding toys are really great for both cats and dogs. It satisfies their natural instinct to make some effort for food, plus it's so much fun to watch them figure it out - entertainment for all!
Interesting! For anyone trying it out: just keep in mind the walls of the glass have be to thick enough (like in the video). Thin glasses break easily when bitten by a dog (or a cat, even)
Or just use plastic cups, easier for cats to maneuver as well as dogs can too and not glass break danger
That just show how clever dogs are
Anyway...i doubt cat can break a glass by biting it...heck they literally haver weaker bite force than human(unlike dogs)

@@FakfridSumanko dogs are less lazy?
@@minisithunknown5568 wtf does that have to do with any of this? Also, "lazy" is not the right word. You wouldnt call humans lazy for sleeping 8 hours a day.
I remember watching Nova: Dogs Decoded (or something similar) and they were talking about the connection dogs have to humans. As an example they put food inside a cage and first let a wolf into the room. The wolf circled and circled the cage getting increasingly frustrated trying to get the food. Then the repeated the experiment with a dog. The dog circled once or twice but very quickly turned to the humans as if to say "C'mon opposable thumbs! Help me out here!" I think that's pretty significant. We humans tend to fixate on an individual's intelligence, but the irony is our success as a species lie in our social ties - the fact that we share knowledge is key.
I love dogs but there's a bit more to consider here..
"..But cats certainly aren't dumb. Their brains may be small compared to ours, occupying only about 0.9 percent of their body mass compared to about 2 percent in an average human and about 1.2 percent in an average dog. But size doesn't always matter. Neanderthals, the hominids that went extinct more than 20,000 years ago, had bigger brains than Homo sapiens, but they probably weren't smarter than the Homo sapiens that beat them in the survival game.
Surface folding and brain structure matter more than brain size. Unlike the brains of dogs, the brains of cats have an amazing surface folding and a structure that is about 90 percent similar to ours. The cerebral cortex of cats is greater and more complex compared to that of dogs. The cerebral cortex is the part of the brain responsible for cognitive information processing. A cat's cerebral cortex contains about twice as many neurons as that of dogs. Cats have 300 million neurons, whereas dogs have about 160 million. In fact, cats have more nerve cells in the visual areas of their brain, a part of cerebral cortex, than humans and most other mammals.
Like brain size, number of neurons in the cerebral cortex may not be a good indicator of intelligence. But it's a better indicator than brain size. The cerebral cortex is the seat of rational decision making and complex problem solving. It also interprets inputs from the senses and from emotional processing that occurs subcortically. It is involved in the planning of action, the interpretation of language (or other forms of communication), and it is responsible for the storage of short-term and long-term memory. Cats have longer-lasting memories than dogs, especially when they learn by doing rather than seeing."

@@NorthYukiHuskyI made some liver and had to wait until the power came back, and had to do stuff so I left it with a heavy metal lid and put some cans on top for good measure. My cat does like treats, but not as much as liver. Maybe she'd give up with your experiments, but there's nothing she wouldn't do to get to eat liver. It wasn't long before I found the cans on the floor, the lid off and the cat undoing 2 of the 4 seals of the container. The male is food motivated, but not to that point, and I'd say the female is of average cat intelligence. If the male had been more food motivated, he'd maybe have been more delicate in his approach.
Good point. I got my American bully a treat puzzle and he just crushed the plastic puzzle ball in his Jaws and took the treats lol
My cats once got into their sealed plastic food container without breaking the container or knocking it over. To this day I don't know how. The only dogs I've had that did that got in by destroying the container. Dogs seem to rely on brute force while cats seem more cunning, but dogs also tend to be larger. It'd be interesting to see the same experiments done with a smaller dog, one closer to a cat in size.
Thanks ❤️ Yes, it's interesting. What do you think a big cat would do? The size of a husky or a malamute. Would a big cat use force?
@@NorthYukiHusky Oh, that's an interesting point! Would a cougar approach the problem like a dog or like their smaller relatives? Would a chihuahua (or other small dog) approach the problem like a cat or dog?
I had a Bassett hound who opened a latched cooler, opened a pack of hotdogs, sucked all the hotdogs out, then closed the cooler lid... bassetts are brutal when it comes to stealing food! A friend of mine had one who somehow broke into someone's cabin and ate all the meat in their fridge lol.
Aunque el perro fuera pequeño, no dudo que haya hecho exactamente lo mismo que los perros grandes.
I think a smaller dog would not be able to get the food. The size and strenght of the dogs made it a lot easier for them, so in this case the cat had to put more effort to have the same results.

My last cat was super smart, because I encouraged him to solve puzzles from kittenhood. He knew how to get something inside of a box, under a box, under another box, each opening from a different direction. Sometimes, he was too smart for my own good. 😸
So after teaching him all that, how cleverly did you have to hide the treats when they weren't being used? xD
@@halfprince
I didn't use treats to teach Manhattan how to solve puzzles. I used his toys. I think he enjoyed learning as much as I enjoyed watching him learn. He knocked my Rubbermaid tall kitchen trash can on its side, and played in it, so I let him have it (clean, of course). One day I put a box in there, the opening facing out, then put a ball in it. After he got that ball, I put the same ball in the same box, but with the opening facing to the side, then to the back, then facing down. After he figured out all of those puzzles, I started stacking boxes, with the openings facing in different directions. Nothing stopped him. He just kept learning. He was an amazing cat.
The thing is, he learned to assess a situation. For instance, my closets had accordion doors. When he couldn't open them from the end, as he had in the last place we'd lived, he watched the way it moved when I opened it. Eventually, he went to the center of the door, and pulled on one of them. It moved, so he went to see if his head could fit through the opening he'd created. He did that three or four times before he could fit in. After that, he knew how much he had to pull before he could get into the closet.
We moved to an apartment that didn't have accordion doors. Three years later, we stayed in my brother's apartment, and his closets had accordion doors. Manhattan went right up to the coat closet, and opened the door. He remembered three years later. My sister used to call him Einstein. I really miss that cat.
Oh, something funny… Before he commandeered the trash can for his playhouse, I started seeing his toys in it. I couldn't figure out how they got there, but one day walked in on him putting one in there. He was copying me. He just didn't know that the stuff that went into that container was going to be thrown away. He was so cute.
Lol I taught my cat how to open things when he was a kitten. Not my smartest idea. He has forbidden knowledge now.
@@AnnaHans88
😸😸😸
I had a ragdoll who learned by observation to open doors. We had handles, not knobs, so it was possible for him to grasp them if he just reached up. We also had a Tonkinese at the time, and I saw her try the same trick once, but she wasn't big enough to reach.
Dogs are not smarter in this context. They use their brutal power to roll the glass. Cat used her paws like human’s hand. She was even more talented and polite
The cat tried to shove its head in, multiple times, and then went with the paw. It took virtually no intelligence to do that. It basically did the most no-thought, instinctual thing that any creature that consumes food would do, and it only succeeded because its paws have the dexterity to eventually scrape the food out of the hole. It even forgot that a few times and tried its head again.
The dogs on the other hand could not use their paws for these tasks in the same way, and they understood that. They were forced to examine each situation as something slightly different, and actually solve it like a puzzle. Sometimes using inertia, sometimes using the variable height of the carpet and hardwood, sometimes just figuring out the right way to flip it over or roll it.
The dogs demonstrated a massively higher intelligence than the cats. It's not even close. If the cats head and paws both failed, it had nothing left. That's why it needed help on the one container.
Monty accidentally did something truly brilliant on stage 2 when he picked up the other side of the glass.

Hello Sheri how are you doing today
Both seem to have had more accidental victories than planned ones. It should have been really easy for a dog to pick up the glass with it's jaw, but none thought about it, nor did they use their paw... Cats use instinctively their paws, but it wasn't nearly as good as it could have been.
I largely agree that these tests had an element of luck which were shown in the video. Perhaps to truly test IQ, we will need to remove the luck variable and solely focus on ability. But that is another problem
@@RozzWasHere don't forget to factor in instinct as well.
accident give rise to patterns 🙂
Monty turning the glass upside down seemed clever and isn't quite accidental.
actually one of the dogs picked the glass up and spilled the treats on the floor.
They're like people, some are better at problem soling than others. I have two cats, one would be able to do all of these without a problem and would be very motivated to. The other; she wouldn't care at all. We have a puzzle treat dispenser that requires them to pull out boxes using their paws, as well as slide panels out of the way. One cat gets all the treats out every time, the other requires some help to get any treats 😅
Thanks for sharing. Yes, that's right, they're all different 😉
it is so fun to spy on your cats teaching each others some tricks. We rescued a cat when I was a young girl, and she was much cleverer than our tom cat. One day, I saw her showing him how to open a cupboard as she had got used to stealing before we tamed her. He was looking at what she was doing very closely like a well behaved pupil lol.
That's fair, individual qualities matter a lot with both cats and dogs.
The dogs NEVER solved anything, the simply knocked the container around , until the treat was out.
Shhh
Can you teach your cat to straighten his posture on command without touching him or even providing a treat?
Honestly, I don't know if the dogs understood anything other than that they need to push the object with their nose or paw to get the treat. I have played similar games with my dogs, and I think it's easy to confuse aggressiveness (pushing really hard) with intelligence.
Maybe you're right
On the second test, Saga seemed to learn from watching the glass roll from side to side causing the treats to spill out. It looked to me like she tried rocking the glass in the same way to get to the last treat.
@@Toasty_93 saga is much smarter than it seems
It's not the use of brute force what makes us think they're intelligent, is the fact that they were able to understand that using brute force will solve their problem at hand.
Brains also includes your ability to know how to use your muscle too.
Monty turned the glass upside down. How was that brute force? He definetly is aware of the law of gravity and how to use it.
Each used the tools they had; A nose, a paw, a claw, push, pull, a head bump. I don’t think any of them actually solved the problem with thought, but used instinct. Therefore, I conclude they’re equal.
3:14 - that look. Absolutely priceless
😘 Yuki?
5:35 u help it thats cheating
She said: "ok, he deserved help"
Depends on the dog and the cat. My Maine Coon was shockingly smart.
I once witnessed him execute and entire hunting plan, that involved dashing out the flap in the front door, around the block of houses, which takes a few minutes, then silently sneaking over the back fence (which is usually a loud, clambering affair)... to blindside a rat that was scurrying back and forth 6ft from the wide open back door.
But my boy knew he had no cover for a direct attack, and the rat would see him, so he made a complex plan to approach from cover. I've never seen a dog do anything that deliberate.
Cats are good at solo hunting, dogs would need to probably have a group present to have the same efficacy.
Not sure what this says about intelligence but in terms of being a predator cats are apparently extremely crafty
You don't know dogs very well, they routinely use deception in some cases, a border terrier we had used to steal his brothers bone by rushing out barking into the garden as if he'd seen a cat (there was nothing there), his brother would rush out after him and he would immediately run back in and grab the bone.
@@glochidiatus Yeah but they also also routinely try and fit a 7ft stick through a 3ft hole... so...
@@glochidiatus We have two basset hound puppies, Millie and Maisy.
Today we learned that Millie is con artist.
We observed her fight with Maisy TO THE DEATH over a plastic bottle after Maisy stole it from her. Then Millie calmed down, and allowed Maisy to chew on it while she went for a drink of water.
I was pleasantly surprised.
Maisy, being a stinker, wasn't really interested in the bottle if Millie and her couldn't squabble over it. So she went over to drink water with Millie.
Millie slithered back to the bottle and this time wasn't going to give it up so easily. Maisy was still drinking when she realized that she had been fooled.
I can think of all sorts of words to describe bassets, but "wily" was not one of them until recently.🐺

It's all about thinking out of the box. Both species are very intelligent creatures, if you think about it. The cat was smart enough to use the help from It's owners hand even if it came spontanly. They are both pretty smart animals in their own ways.

That lid was too heavy for a kitty! Glad you helped!
Oh, this little cat is so cute, I couldn't help but help her 🙂
Took humanity hundreds of years to discover centrifugal force, takes few minutes to your dog. It makes you think.
Oh, I don't think people would have solved this problem for a thousand years 😅
The dogs eyes were: "Are you kidding me!?" 😂
It might not be bright, but seems loyal ...
That was fun. Lmao, the looks the dogs had, had me in tears, 🤣. Both cats and dogs are equally 👌 ❤️.
Thanks! I'm glad you had fun.😁😘
Indeed. The dogs had more strength and could use force for more successful trial and error.
Probably would a crow or a pig have made more intelligent moves ;)
Not really. Cats have a predators smarts. Dogs are just smarter
@@HellStr82 Not really.. cats are smarter than dogs.
@@appleday9616 If that were true then theyd use cats to help disabled people and police. Cats arent remotely more intelligent.

you were expecting cats, weren't you?
But it was me, Dio!
Dio?
@@NorthYukiHusky Oh? Are you approaching me? Instead of running away you're getting closer?
My guy is a non-jojo fan I guess
It's nice to meet you, friend. That was such a fun video. It was interesting how the different doggies handled the situations and then the kitties too. It was also interesting how they were all good at different challenges. Thank you for sharing! 😸💗
Thank you for watching our video. I'm glad you were interested 😘
Monty is the only dog that really understood that the same problem can be solved by many ways, so he had to try many of them to found the best solution.
And all cats have a nice understanding that they can influence their environment using their extremitys.
Cats havea better self conscience on their own body, dogs barely remember that they have two other legs on their backside. And a tail.
Cats are so nice builded in physiollogical terms, all working like an efficient machine, that they haven't to bother about coordination or things like that, so they can focus on solving problems.
But the hipersociability on dogs avoid them to observe the smarter, their master, and eventually imitate him for essential and non essential solutions.
3:26 the cat behind😭🤣
Thanks ❤️❤️
@@NorthYukiHusky cute ones tho ❤❤❤
Ha ha ha, that was so funny how Belka tries to eat the food by putting her whole face inside that Glass lol 4:34
Thanks ❤️
It’s amazing how Saga didn’t want to mess with the glass and gently move it until she got out the meat. It’s like thinking, there must be a way of keeping it organized but still getting my reward. Lol
Saga is not a big fan of eating
Years ago I had a mixed breed dog from a shelter. Not long after getting him, while going through divorce, I had stayed with my parents for a few days/weeks until I could find a place. My dog had never been to their house before. (they lived in a row home in town) I couldnt take him there, because they had pets, and were concerned about them getting along. I had an uncle who lived about a mile away, in a more rural area, who allowed me to put his dog house in his yard, and chain him up there until I found a place.
He was in a body harness, and chained to a tree.
The next morning, he was scratching at the door at my parents house (after I had left for work) He spent the day being friendly and playing with the other pets, so my parents gave in. That was one smart dog. I miss him.
How lovely they are! I love their faces when you place the treat inside the glass out of their reach hahaha
I was only concerned about the possibility of the glass to break. An acrylic cup would be safer I think.
Anyway, nice video!
Thank you very much! I was sure that this glass would withstand any onslaught 😘
Prediction: The cat will just look at it like "Seriously, hooman?!" and walk away.
3:12 the way yuki always look at it's owner before he act is so cite lol 😆😂
Yes, I love that smart look 😍
The way the one dog looked at its owner when she put the glass over it. 😹
Hi friend your dog is so smart and adorable Thank you very much for sharing this video and I believe that you will upload new more videos, Thanks ♥️♥️😻😻🐕🐈
Thanks for watching! Of course, I will create and upload new videos 😘
3:51 He is literally like ''Seriously?''
😀
Crazy how something so completely simple for us humans is such an IQ test for other animals.
Well of course. Dogs and cats don't need cups. They know how to do things that are not available to us. For example, to hunt deftly 😅
The fact we have hands is one reason it's so easy
Cats and dogs can't close their hands and simply take the object. It's not only about the IQ, it's equipment too
Saga is a sweetheart.
All of them are super cute!!
thanks 😘
@@NorthYukiHusky anytime 💜
Reaction on Saga is totally priceless.🤣🤣
Oh, yes! The saga has always been great
Such an awesome video 😂 I love how the cat got its murder mittens all in there! 😼 I'm a total cat person myself, but the dogs are adorable too! You have very beautiful pets ❤
The cats are observing and studying the object before doing anything. This is the only important thing to understand who is smarter
Dogs did it too
Team Cats!!❤
0:08 that look 😂
The cat was smarter because he got you to do it for him, and even got a little petting in the bargain.
😂 mine opens the fridge, the closet with trashcan and the balcony door where I store his meals. He constantly keeps me on alert 😂.
Not a fair competition....dogs are stronger, and can knock or flip things over.
The only time a cat can knock or flip things over, is when the glass is half full of liquid, and is sitting next to your computer or important papers.
Also, cats can reach into spaces with their claws, whereas dogs do not have that ability.
(I used to have maine coons...they would actually scoop up certain foods with their paws, to eat )
Another observation....dogs will eat just about anything...cats are finicky, and will purposely take their time before they grace our food offerings with acceptance.
Great Video!!
😄 Thanks! Everyone has their own way to get what they want. Cats can be very smart if they want something 😛
Sometimes cat lovers can be as trash as dog simps....
Yuki has such a “Bruh, I been doing this” face 😂
ahaha! Yeah, Yuki has a very rich facial expression for a dog
0:26 Saga tries not to knock over the glass 🥰 If I were a dog, I would be that dog. 😋
Thanks Klaus ❤️
@@NorthYukiHusky The name is just a synonym . Maybe my name should be Saga ✌️😋
