Some people have had to deal with the unpleasant situation when their beloved cat simply stops noticing its owner.

It is difficult to come to terms with such a discovery, since we are used to seeing pets as real members of the family.

Why did the cat start ignoring the owner?

Mood swings and desire for personal space

Don't think that pets don't feel emotions: sometimes they just want to be alone. As soon as the cat "gets over it", it will start spending time with its owner again.

Sometimes animals just need to be given time, experts say.

Also, a cat sometimes values its personal space, so it ignores a person.

Disease

It is worth carefully monitoring at least the appetite of your pet: if the cat refuses to eat, shows no interest in drinking, looks weak, then it is better to go to the clinic.

In this case, the owner is ignored only because the pet is sick.

Stressful situation

There are many factors that can cause stress for a cat. Perhaps friends and relatives have started to visit you often, which frightens your pet.

Sometimes a new person - a partner or a child - becomes the cause of stress. A cat can be nervous because of repairs, moving, and even because of rearrangement.
