Many cat owners find it cute that cats lie on their owners, as it shows a trusting relationship and is proof of a strong bond.
However, not everyone knows what makes an animal ignore a comfortable bed or sofa, choosing a person instead.
Why do cats like to lie on people?
They like our warmth
Experts note that cats like various sources of heat, so they can often be seen on a radiator or in other warm secluded places.
Our body temperature is pleasant for cats, so animals like to sleep on us.
Defenders
Cats are extremely concerned about their safety. Even if no one has ever attacked a pet in its sleep or even woken it up, this does not negate the presence of instinct.
It is extremely important for cats to realize that they are in complete safety. Therefore, a person as a "guard" seems to be the best option for the pet.
The cat just enjoys being around.
We are used to underestimating the feelings of a cat towards us. The opinion has become established that we are practically indifferent to our pets.
This is wrong.
If a cat wants to spend time in pleasant company, then it comes to us.
