Every person has their own fears and worries. Our pets are no exception.
Cats are also afraid of many things. It is worth considering the most common pet phobias.
Loud sounds
A cat can be very frightened if it hears the sounds of fireworks, a vacuum cleaner, construction tools or a thunderstorm. This is because these animals have very sensitive hearing. If the sound is too loud, the cat will experience extreme discomfort.
She may run away or become restless. Some breeds of cats are aggressive and may scratch or bite their owner.
Strangers
It is no secret that such animals keep to themselves, as they have an independent character.
If you invite guests into your home, your cat may become anxious. The pet's fear will increase if the stranger tries to interact with it.
Other animals
Cats believe that the territory they live in belongs only to them. If another animal appears in the space, your pet may be very scared. The cat will run away or hiss at the stranger, try to attack him.
Making changes to your usual rhythm of life
Cats like routine because their lives are structured according to established habits. If the routine changes, the animal will become restless and anxious.
For example, a cat will not like it if you change its feeding schedule or rearrange furniture. In some situations, fear makes a pet behave destructively, which causes a lot of discomfort to its owner.
Water
Probably, no cat likes water, avoids contact with it. But there are such pets that enjoy playing with liquid flowing from the tap. However, bathing is a real stress for the animal, because it feels vulnerable.
The phobia is aggravated if the cat has been caught in a downpour or fallen into a pool in the past.
Now you know what your pet is afraid of. Try to limit it from such irritants so that the cat does not face stress!
