Why does a cat hiss: what can and cannot be done in such a situation
Anyone, even those who have never had a kitten, knows that furry pets can make not only plaintive meows, but also menacing hisses.
There are truly a huge number of reasons why this sound comes out of an animal’s mouth, so we will focus on the most common ones.
Thus, with the help of hissing, cats express fear or make it clear that they feel discomfort.
Hissing occurs during territorial conflicts or when the kitten is overly excited.
In addition, this is how the maternal instinct manifests itself when a cat protects her offspring.
If a cat hisses, it should not be disturbed or frightened.
Instead, you should try to calm her down with quiet, soft words or even leave your pet alone for a while so that she can calm down.
If your pet continues to be aggressive or nervous, you may want to seek help from a veterinarian or consult a zoopsychologist.
