What determines a cat's "talkativeness": interesting information
14.01.2024 08:53
It's no secret that, just like people, each cat has its own character and, accordingly, behavior.
For example, some cats like to “talk” a lot, that is, meow, and will not miss the opportunity to communicate with their owners, while others, even when begging for food, will remain silent and attract attention to themselves with pitiful looks.
You must admit, it would be very interesting to know why this happens.
It turns out that a cat’s “talkativeness” is influenced by a lot of factors, the main ones of which we will share with you in this article.
Age
Some cat owners notice that their pets become more talkative with age, while others, on the contrary, are sure that their pet's sociability has decreased. In any case, age plays its role.
Breed
Despite the uniqueness of each cat, which we have already discussed earlier, the breed can still affect its sociability. For example, oriental breeds such as Siamese and Oriental are considered more sociable and talkative.
Habitat and education
It has been observed that socialized cats are less talkative than their "wild" counterparts.
This may be because pet owners often prefer silence to meowing, so they train their kittens to be quiet from an early age through praise and treats (for example).
Loneliness
Despite their self-sufficiency, Murkas and Barsiki need to communicate with other cats. If your pet does not have the opportunity to communicate with relatives, he may start communicating with you. To make your chatty cat quieter and calmer, try to find him a friend.
Earlier we talked about how to make a cat as loyal as a dog.
