Cats are known to have a strange habit of chasing their own tails.
We explain why cats chase their tails and when this is a cause for concern.
Why does a cat catch its tail?
Firstly, this is how cats train their hunting skills.
Secondly, cats often chase their tails simply out of boredom and excess energy.
This is quite normal behavior for kittens, as well as for adult cats that are not allowed outside.
However, if a cat chases its tail non-stop, this is a reason to contact a veterinarian: perhaps the pet is being bothered by fleas or parasites.
