Some owners are touched by the sight of a yawning cat, while others begin to worry about the health of their pet.

However, sometimes cats yawn for exactly the same reasons as people.

Sometimes they just don't have enough air or they just woke up. These are the most common reasons.

Why else might a cat yawn?

The animal is bored

Experts believe that a cat can also yawn because of boredom, which seems very curious and unusual. If our pet has nothing to do, then out of desperation, it can start yawning.

In this case, you need to find something to keep your pet busy. For example, you can play with it or show attention in any other way.

The pet takes an example

It is worth remembering that cats are very prone to learning, so when living together with humans, they can take on some of our habits.

For example, a cat may yawn only because its beloved owner does so.

Physical activity

If your cat leads an active lifestyle, loves to fool around, play and run, then it needs more oxygen to saturate its lungs.

Therefore, she performs an action that reminds us of yawning.
