Sea cats are not cats in the sea, but social animals in caves. Like humans, they also need to come out to feed on human fireworks. They are members of the Lygodidae, which dig holes and live in southwest Africa. They are quick-thinking, and in order to monitor predators, their bodies are in an upright "sentry" posture, from which they can be clearly identified.

Living habits of sea cats

The range of activity of sea cats partially overlaps and is distributed within several square kilometers, which is marked by the secretion of anal glands. Different groups will chase or fight when they meet. Living in a cave, the cave can reach 5 meters wide and has multiple entrances. Several tunnels and caves on different floors can extend to underground 1.5 meters. There are about five such cave areas in each activity range.

Rest in the cave at night and give birth here. Sea cats often come out to bask in the sun in the morning, move around their nests, and retreat to caves for lunch break to avoid the heat at noon. When the ground temperature reaches 38℃( 100℉), it is only 23℃(73℉) below 1 meter. Although it is reported that sea cats live with South African ground squirrels (Xerus of Auris), they may dig their own holes.
