Many owners misinterpret the coldness and detachment of cats.
Such people come to the following conclusion: "My furry friend loves solitude, so he will be comfortable without me. I can safely leave for a long time. The main thing is to leave a supply of food and water for the four-legged friend."
Some cat owners are not afraid to leave their pets unattended for several days in a row.
This is a very dangerous approach. The fact is that cats, despite their love of solitude, cannot be left alone for such a long period.
Why you shouldn't leave a cat alone for long periods of time
The answer is simple: when left without an owner, the pet faces severe stress.
Yes, don't be surprised. "Selfish" and "loneliness-loving" cats start to get bored and afraid when they don't see the people they are used to for a long time.
This is evidenced by the behavior of almost any fluffy cat left unattended: such a cat will probably meow more often and relieve itself outside the litter box.
How long can a cat be left alone?
Are you going somewhere or staying at someone's place for a long time? Know: you can leave your purr alone for a maximum of 48 hours.
Moreover, we are talking about an adult and healthy cat. A kitten or an adult fluffy cat that has ailments cannot be left alone even for 24 hours.
Important: when leaving your pet in the apartment, do not forget to fill the bowls with food and water, and also make sure that your four-legged friend has access to toys.
