Many owners may be irritated by the fact that their pet can actively and noisily run around the apartment, creating significant discomfort.

In some cases, this behavior can be easily corrected.

Why can a cat run around the apartment

Young cats and kittens

For young animals, such behavior is completely natural, experts note. Therefore, there is no need to adjust the activity: you just need to "wait it out."

It is important to remember that you have a young predator living in your apartment, for whom it is extremely important to maintain ideal physical shape. Therefore, running for a cat is a kind of training.

Long-term loneliness

Some breeds of cats have a hard time withstanding prolonged loneliness. If there is no one at home most of the time, the animal starts running to calm itself down and somehow diversify its leisure time.

There is only one solution to the problem in this case: you need to spend more time in the apartment with your pet.

A thirst for attention and joint games

Cats love to play, so it is important to set aside time for this in your daily schedule. The animal may get bored playing alone, so the pet sees you as a great "partner".

If the owner does not pay attention to his pet, then running around the apartment is a signal that you should spend time together.
