Do Animals Know They Are Pregnant? Deep Dive Discussion
Summary
The FriendZone | Make Friends ⋅ Fun Chill Active Chat ⋅ VC Social Gaming ⋅ Memes ⋅ Nitro Emojis ⋅ Anime community recently sparked a fascinating debate on whether animals possess an innate awareness of pregnancy. This discussion explores the intersection of evolutionary instinct, biological changes, and the differences between human knowledge and animal behavior. It is a perfect example of the engaging, thought-provoking conversations that happen daily in our active chat channels.
Pkay so hear me out, imagine ure an animal like for example a cat. You live your life walk on fences and fork other cats randomly. A beautiful day you walk around your favourite neighbours lawn and then you feel some shit kick you in the stomach, and from that moment it just gets worse and worse but keep in mind you are a silly kitten that has never even been taught that pregnancy is a thing. Another gorgeous day you just shit out 7 kittens. like wtf
Because animals know that if they get fucked they get kids
Only the humans are the ones that question weather they should k*ll their own flesh or not
Humans are more animalistic than animals
how
do they just know?
isnt kid making just an instinct
Yes, in SPECIFIC cases, often life or death situations. Not because they want to keep have s*x without responsabilities
Yes, after millions of years the brain instantly know when they are
Usually they also feel their body "change" to accomodate the kid/kids
but then why do only animals experience this
or is this some pregnancy funfact i didnt know about
there's millions of years of evolution in animals..
animals feel that they are pregnant
how
how do they know its not a tummy ache and fat
does someone tell u how to walk
u learn it on ur own
its in our body and brain
but they usually find out through pregnancy test, and also we are taught what it is and know about it in advance
we are clearly shown how to by parents while we are young and they teach us it
its not like we hop out of our mothers and walk 2 hr later like horses do
no they dont..we intinctively learn how to walk and crawl
okay but thats an instinct to do something
i get that part
i dont get how they know theres another animal in them
i think they def dont know what exactly is happening in their body
but they have done their deed to conceive a child
so they know the consequences
how do they know the consequences
the deed is the instinct
have to ask a animal
instincs dont tell you whats happening
but then again how do they know its not a tummy ache or them getting fat
they bleed too ig
could be a lot different for differnt animals
how can they just know
i dont get it lol
🥹
ye but we are educated and have been taught how it works step by step
if i wasnt taught and it js happened id think im dying
or that im sick
not that i have a baby in me
i think u should ask someone who didnt knew they were pregnant untill the baby was fairly developed
idk anyone like that 🥲
humans do get symptoms..and we know it instinctively
its jus we got pregnancy kits
that we find bout it way earlier
before we take the tests we dont actually know if we are pregnant
thats why we take them
to ever care bout those symptoms of our own
but animals dont know these are symptoms of pregnancy
you can gain weight or lose your period for various reasons
but how foes that instinct work then
google told me animals likely dont actually know their pregnant but just expirience it through the symptoms
What da hell
so they dont know they are pregnant
?
yea jus one day they poop out children..thats why they care less bout their children than us
they dont know they are pregnant
you said they know they are pregnant bc of their instincts
but they dont
they just feel symptoms
but you just agreed to that they dont know they are pregnant
so they dont know
they feel it but they dont know what it is
they dont know its pregnancy
fish dont know what water is
no need to get passive agressive here
i dont think so
i dont think animals really can connect the two
they dont realise that mating which is an instinct can lead to a new life
nature
instinct
to mate
thats their purpose
but they dont know it
yo need to make a animal translator..thats the only way she would believe
why do know that..
ye and thats why even people that dont want kids still do it
having kids is never the first thought gng
yo how tf am a simp😭
They feel i guess
Just because they are animals that doesn't mean they are dumb....
That is f**king nature
Most times they might not know exactly what is happening to them but with time they will start to understand especially if it's their first pregnancy and the body sends hormones that would make the mother want to care for their babies except they are experiencing postpartum depression

They know cause they know
Both are suitable

you’re turning it into chaos when it’sreally just biology. cats don’t “randomly” mate—they go into heat and actively look for it. there’s no sudden “kick” either, pregnancy develops slowly over ~2 months, not some instant trauma. and they’re not sitting there confused like “wtf is happening,” that’s a human projection—animals run on instinct and hormones, not that kind of awareness. even birth isn’t random, it’s a structured process their bodies are built for.
