Why are kittens so adorable?
Yes, Pickle, a kitten, is still adorable. All kittens are. But, why? Why are these mini beasts, with their aloofness, many spiky bits, and propensity to murder things and bring you their mangled remains, so efficient in setting off human compassion and love? They’re not even the very same types as us! Countless individuals ask Google, “Why are kittens so cute?” every day, so it’s clearly a typical concern. Thankfully, science has actually offered a couple of responses and descriptions.
Part of it is the fur. Studies have actually revealed that primates naturally look for, even require, soft enjoyable contact, ideally with our own moms and dads and kin, however the basic tactile experience will do typically. This might originate from a progressed like of social grooming, and incredibly fulfilling and prominent practice amongst social mammals like us, so the very act of running your fingers through the long soft fur of another being is most likely something we react to at a deep, instinctive level, so any animal which appears to be all soft fur is going to be naturally more enticing. And kittens are precisely that. The Oatmeal’s Matt Inman explains rubbing a kitten’s belly as “like frolicking in the back hair of an angel”, which sounds ideal. This may also explain why scaly or slimy creatures don’t get the cute label, but birds often get a pass, particularly the ”fluffier” ones. Feathers are nice and soft too, after all.
It’s not simply the fur though, obviously. Rats and mice have fur, but we have industries dedicated to wiping them out. And tarantulas are technically furry, but…
So what else is it about kittens that trigger this cute reflex? Much of the earliest work into cuteness as a scientific phenomenon began with Austrian scientist Konrad Lorenz who coined the term “Kindchenschema”.
As the name suggests, it basically proposes that the more qualities and features something has in common with human babies, the cuter it’s perceived as being. For instance, babies have disproportionately large heads and eyes compared to their eventual adult form, thanks to the uneven ways the brain and body develop. Kittens (and puppies) likewise have large heads and huge eyes, so are considered cuter than the more evenly-proportioned beady-eyed rodents nature provides us with.
Younger animals generally provoke this cuteness reflex more, even if the adult version is still relatively small and fluffy. There are many theories as to where it comes from, or what it’s for, but it’s a particularly potent one that “hijacks” many neurological processes. Many argue that it stems from an evolved pressure to care for babies, as human ones are so vulnerable and need constant care, so it’s good for the species. It can even go “too far”, where the adorable reflex is powerful however regularly thwarted (due to species, distance, cultural limits on what’s acceptable interaction etc), and results in aggressive elements being invoked (“So cute I could just squeeze it/eat it up!” and so on).
Kittens seem to activate a lot of the inherent reflexes in our brains that we’ve acquired over the millennia of evolution. Their furry small bodies with the huge heads and eyes tick all the right boxes, so we find them so adorable, we let them get away with murder. Literally.
