Jumping on furniture

Cats are natural hunters. It is important for them to be in places where they can study the surrounding area well.

That is why fluffy creatures often try to climb as high as possible. For this reason, they love to jump on cabinets and shelves.

Pets feel safe in such places, reports " TUT NOVOSTI ".

Eating houseplants

This behavior of cats is explained by instinct.

Keep in mind that many indoor flowers are dangerous for pets. Find out which plants are poisonous for cats. After that, immediately remove dangerous representatives of flora from the apartment.

Scratching furniture

Cats need to sharpen their claws. And furniture often becomes the fluffy one's "victim".

This often happens even if there is a scratching post in the house.

Night running

Cats are animals whose peak activity often occurs during the dark hours of the day.

It is quite difficult to change this. Punishing the animal for such behavior is definitely not worth it.

Drinking water from the owner's cup

Don't get angry at your cat if it starts drinking water poured into your cup.

The animal hardly understands that this container does not belong to it. But the pet really wants to drink.

Earlier we told you whether you can tell whether your pet is sick or healthy by the condition of your cat’s nose.
