Why a cat won't let you sleep at night: what your pet is trying to achieve and can you calm it down
What cats do at night can be called outright mockery of their owners.
It is believed that after sleeping for the day, pets simply do not know where to put the accumulated energy, so they run around the apartment. But this is not true.
As strange as it may sound, experts call this animal behavior normal.
The habit was inherited from wild ancestors who were used to hunting at night. But giving food to a cat at night does not mean calming it down.
How to tame a pet
First, you need to buy toys, a scratching post and other entertainment for the cat, which should diversify its leisure time during the day.
Sometimes it is enough to simply provide access to a window during the day - cats are very inquisitive. And an aquarium with fish also helps.
Secondly, you shouldn’t leave the cat litter box dirty overnight – it’s better to wash it immediately after your pet has gone to the toilet.
Thirdly, it is necessary to provide the animal with food and water before going to bed. It is believed that a hearty dinner can help in such a situation.
Fourthly, before going to bed, you need to pay maximum attention to the animal for games. Otherwise, the pet will misbehave in the dark.
But if all the pet’s wishes are fulfilled, and the behavior does not change, the owners can only be patient.
Experts say that animals attract attention with their behavior. That's why they provoke their owners.
But it also happens that a cat expresses protest with its behavior because it is simply not allowed into the bedroom.
