Does your cat prevent you from going to the toilet or bathroom in peace?

As soon as you open the door to any of these rooms, does your furry friend try to enter with you?

Do not scold or punish your pet for this!

Most likely, the cat is exhibiting this behavior for a “good” reason.

Sensing that you are planning to “hide” indoors for the next few minutes, the animal immediately begins to act.

Play with your furry friend more often and stroke him more often, make more toys for your cat - and then the problem will be solved.

The cat is hot

If your furry four-legged friend starts to exhibit strange behavior in the summer, then the reason is obvious: the animal is hot.

It is quite cool in the toilet. That is why the pet strives to find itself in this room at the slightest opportunity.

The cat wants to drink

Even if there is enough water in the bowl, your pet may still start looking for other sources of liquid.

Running water is perceived by many cats as more delicious. That is why the animal has a desire to be in the bathroom: there you can drink water from the tap.

The problem is solved by installing a drinking fountain.
