People say all sorts of things about cats: they are called the most sociable and affectionate creatures, or secret egoists and manipulators.
Be that as it may, but true cat lovers do not care and they carefully monitor the mood of their pet. And there is one important point here.
Let's find out whether cats can feel sad and how to distinguish the blues from illness.
So, a cat is not alien to anything human, and therefore it can be overcome by sadness. The reasons are rooted in the relationship with the owner, for example, if the pet decided that it was suddenly loved less than before.
To prevent this from happening, give your cat at least 20 minutes of attention a day.
The same thing can happen if a pet is left without a loved one for some reason. This happens not only to dogs.
Cats become attached not only to people, but also to their fellow cats, and can even feel sympathy for a dog and yearn for it if the dog leaves this world.
But there are times when you need to be able to distinguish between melancholy and pain.
Keep an eye on your pet. He may have been injured while playing, or his liver, kidney or upper respiratory tract disease may have started to progress due to his age.
In addition to illnesses, cats can be tormented and depressed by stress. If the animal sleeps longer than usual, or maybe even eats less, has become aggressive or does not respond to the owner's affection - all these are alarm bells.
At such moments, there is only one thing left to do: schedule a visit to the vet and arrange entertainment for your pet.
It is enough to pay attention to your pet, pamper it with catnip or give it a toy.
