5 Signs Your Cat Is Afraid of Its Owner

22.08.2024 14:59

It is a common occurrence for a cat to develop fear of its owner.

A cat may begin to be afraid of a person after some unpleasant situation for the pet.

For example, the owner could shout loudly at the furry one or scare him with a loud sound.

Perhaps at some point a person accidentally threw a four-legged friend off the couch or stepped on its tail.

It is possible that the cat owner used physical punishment against the pet. Of course, this is unacceptable.

Don't want your purr to start being afraid of you? Then be as gentle as possible with him, be careful and try not to make noise!

How can you tell if your four-legged friend is already afraid of you? There are several signs.

Ears are pressed to the head

Does Fluffy always press his ears when you appear? This is a very bad sign!

The pet instinctively tries to protect its hearing organs.

Why? Perhaps the cat is afraid of you and does not exclude the possibility that you will attack him.

Doesn't let you pet him

The cat used to love petting, but now avoids it? There is nothing good about that either!

It is possible that your pet is exhibiting this behavior out of fear.

Tries to stay as far away from humans as possible

Of course, a cat that is afraid of its owner will try to spend as much time as possible away from him.

Hiding

And if a person tries to approach the pet, it will start hiding.

Perhaps the cat will be quite smart and will hide in such a way that it will be very difficult to find.

Ignores goodies

Trying to attract your pet with tasty food may also be pointless if the animal is afraid.
