Sometimes cats have a very hard time being separated from their owners.

If the owner has been absent for a very long time, the cat may stop recognizing him. We explain why this happens.

Why the cat "doesn't recognize" the owner

This behavior of the pet is explained by the fact that it does not recognize the owner’s smell.

This happens if the owner’s clothes are saturated with the smell of a hotel, hospital, someone else’s house, other people or animals.

There is no need to be offended by your pet for indifference and detachment; give him time to get used to it.

To quickly restore your cat's former affection, take a shower and change into home clothes immediately upon returning home.

After a few days, when you are thoroughly soaked in the home smell, the cat will love you again.
