For obvious reasons, a cat cannot tell its owner that it is uncomfortable, ill, or in pain.

But the pet is still able to give certain signals.

The problem is that a person does not always understand these signs correctly. But it's all simple!

So, what behavioral features indicate that the purr needs urgent help? For example, remove some unnecessary object or take it to the vet.

It is possible that the fluffy one wants to say something like this: "What are you standing there for? Help me!"

Usually cats use this technique when they cannot overcome some obstacle.

Desperate meowing

Cats in need of help start meowing. And in this case, the meowing is different from the usual one.

It is much louder and even a little scary.

Nervous purring

Purring is usually associated with calmness and relaxation.

But in difficult situations, the furry creatures begin to purr nervously.

Display of aggression

Feeling that the owner does not notice or does not understand her, the cat may take an extreme step - start showing aggression.

Therefore, know: if your four-legged friend starts biting, scratching and throwing things off, then perhaps the animal is not “misbehaving”, but asking for help.
