Cats often surprise their owners with unusual behavior.
For example, pets often show an unhealthy interest in dirty socks or underwear. Hats, slippers and other wardrobe items also suffer from attacks from the whiskered and striped ones.
This happens because the cat finds the smell coming from things attractive, and sometimes their shape or the material from which they are made.
In addition, such theft is a kind of imitation of hunting for animals.
Finally, a pet starved for attention can communicate to its human about its desire to play, and that is why you can wean a cat from taking other people’s things by starting to devote more time to it.
Both joint games and toys that will help your pet entertain himself will help satisfy his hunting inclinations.
Since cats become especially active towards night, to avoid them interfering with your rest, make sure you do everything possible to tire your pet out with play before bed.
But, on the contrary, you shouldn’t shout and take away the “prey” – such actions will only help the cat to make sure that it has found a working way to attract attention.
