Since cats are not as sociable by nature as dogs, and in addition often become lazy in apartment conditions, it is not so easy to understand that they are bored.

That's why we decided to share with you the signs that will help you easily determine if your cat is bored.

The first symptom of boredom in a cat is destruction. A pet suffering from boredom will probably sharpen its claws on furniture and wallpaper, trying to get your attention.

In addition, you should be wary when your pet becomes apathetic and shows no interest in anything.

Sometimes it happens exactly the opposite - the cat shows boredom by going wild. In this case, it begins to behave aggressively, causing damage not only to objects in the house, but also to the owner himself.

To avoid worrying about the condition of your pet or the things in your apartment, you should carve out a sufficient amount of time in your busy schedule to spend with your cat.

In addition, make sure that the animal has as many activities as possible. Both purchased and homemade games will come to the rescue in such a situation. It is better if the games are intellectually oriented.

Finally, let your cat explore new territories, for example, by letting it out onto the balcony. However, do not forget about the animal's safety.
