Many cats are known to like to hide under the blanket and sit there for a long time.
We tell you when this is normal and when it is a reason to panic.
Why does a cat hide under the blanket?
Under the blanket the cat is warm, comfortable and safe.
The desire for warmth and safety is common to all cats, regardless of breed and temperament, so it is not surprising that your cat loves to sit under the covers.
However, sometimes seeking shelter indicates that the animal is experiencing stress or pain.
If your cat sits under a blanket or under a sofa for hours, this is definitely a cause for concern.
