A cat's happiness is not limited to a full bowl of food and a soft bed.
The animal has a whole list of favorite things that brighten up everyday life and make life happier.
Most of these activities are determined by instincts laid down by nature. The animal will never get rid of them, but will always find a way to follow them.
Cats that are not always indoors but go outside often bring dead mice or birds to the door of the house. This should not be considered a negative signal. The pet simply shows what a great hunter it is and expects praise.
To wean a cat off bringing such prey, felinologists recommend giving the animal a toy that will redirect its hunting instincts to itself.
Another natural habit that helps a cat keep its nails razor sharp and also allows the animal to relax and mark its territory with its scent. To protect furniture and wallpaper, it is important to provide the animal with a scratching post.
The higher, the safer. That's what cats think, who like to doze up there, and at every rustle raise their heads and assess what's happening from above.
Cats not only give warmth, but are also its main consumers. Pets are ready to warm themselves near a radiator, a laptop, in the hands of the owner or in the sun. In such conditions, the animal indulges in another of its favorite activities - sleep.
If a cat suddenly starts running around the house and making loud noises, then the animal clearly lacks physical activity during the day. With this action, the pet "invites" you to join in and play with it.
