If you have a cat and a laptop, you have probably noticed more than once that your pet has chosen expensive equipment instead of a bed.

This behavior does not mean that your pet is a future computer genius.

The thing is that cats love warmth, and the device that was recently in operation is much warmer than the surface of a cold chair or windowsill.

This means that cats will not have to spend their own energy to warm their bodies.

But if the cat lies down on the laptop even when it is not heating up, this is a clear sign of jealousy.

The gadget may lie on your lap, which is the rightful place for a cat, you spend all your time looking at the monitor, but it wouldn’t hurt to pay attention to your pet… In order to distract you from its competitor, the animal tries to settle between the owner and the screen.

To prevent your pet from interfering with your work or rest at the laptop, place a special “heating” zone next to it, for example, a mat equipped with heating.

And don't forget to treat your pet with a treat for making the right choice.
