Cats' Dependence on You: Heartwarming Signs!
Many people might think that cats are aloof and unapproachable, believing that they're not easy to bond with. However, only those who have truly lived with cats understand that the socalled "coldness" is merely a facade for their unfamiliarity with people. In reality, what we perceive as coldness is actually their selfprotection!
I believe that those of you who take the time to care for your feline companions know that your adorable little pets deeply cherish you. Today, Pet Encyclopedia wants to share with you several ways in which cats show their dependence on their owners, so you can better recognize these signs!
Running to you in danger
When we face danger, our first instinct is to seek safety at home and find our loved ones. Cats are no different! Many rural cats will rush home when they sense danger, while indoor cats will come to you first when they hear thunder, firecrackers, or feel discomfort in their bodies. To your cat, you are the most trusted person in their lives!
Acting pitiful in front of you
Cats are the most proud creatures, and it's almost impossible to make them lower their heads. However, once they become close to you, they can change dramatically! Pet Encyclopedia's cat has a habit of asking for latenight snacks at 10 PM, sitting in front of you and calling out without even asking. If you don't give in, they will continue to look at you with those innocent, big eyes and emit a whiny sound. They won't jump onto you for affection, but instead, they'll just sit there, looking at you with a pitiful expression. What can you do? You just have to give in!
Your cat's behavior is a good sign for your bond, as it shows that they know when they're hungry and come to you instead of others. This also highlights the importance you hold in their hearts.
Enjoying a cozy sleep next to you
Cats find comfort in sleeping, so they seek a place that makes them feel secure during this time.
If your cat always wants to sleep next to you, it's a clear sign that they love you deeply. They find the warmth they need in your presence, so cherish the moments when your cat sleeps with you.
Licking the places you've touched
Pet Encyclopedia often receives messages from cat owners asking why their cats lick the spots they've touched. Are they嫌弃 us for making them dirty?
But the truth is quite the opposite! If your cat does this, it means you hold a high position in their hearts. Cats have a highly sensitive sense of smell, much stronger than ours.
So when you pet your little cat, their licking is a way to remember your scent!
Of course, some cat owners may be too rough with their pets, causing their fur to become disheveled. In such cases, the cat will naturally need to clean itself. So, if you have this habit, be mindful of it!
Butting their bottom against your face
This might be a bit on the bizarre side, but Pet Encyclopedia wants to remind you not to scold your cat if they do this!
When unfamiliar cats meet, they get to know each other by sniffing each other's bottoms. Additionally, kittens have weak defecation abilities, and their mothers often need to stimulate them by licking to help them go to the bathroom.
So when your cat turns their bottom towards you, it's like they're treating you as their mother! However, cats can be a bit ungrateful, as they often present their bottoms to you right after using the bathroom. Well, that's just the way it is...
Deciding to adopt a cat is a responsibility, and our feline friends bring us countless joys. Let's continue to love and care for our little furballs together!
