Have you ever thought about the consequences of not showing affection to your cat?
What happens if the owner of a furry friend suddenly stops petting his four-legged friend?
It turns out that the consequences can be quite serious.
However, in some cases, the furry creature will not react at all to the lack of affection from a person.
So what are the possible scenarios?
The cat will be offended
If we are talking about a sociable cat (one that responds positively to touch), then at first she will be surprised.
The animal will begin to think that it has done something wrong, and that is why it has lost affection.
The purr will try to return the owner's tenderness. The pet will start to approach the person, "butt", climb on hands.
If the owner ignores the cat in these cases, the animal will be offended. It is possible that the pet will even begin to avoid the person.
The cat will be happy
Yes, this scenario is possible. But only if we are talking about a fluffy one who does not like affection.
So, some cats react negatively to petting due to the stress that arises.
Of course, if the affection from the owner suddenly disappears, then such a pet will be happy.
The cat won't care
And many cats will react with indifference to the lack of affection from humans.
The thing is that fluffy creatures are independent: they can become weakly attached to their owner. In this case, the animal will not have much need for interaction.
