Many cats, as we know, like to lie right in the passageway, which causes a lot of inconvenience to their owners.

We'll tell you where cats get this strange habit from and whether it can be weaned off.

Why is the cat lying on the threshold?

Natural instincts force the cat to lie down in the passage, thereby occupying an advantageous position for observation.

Lying on the threshold, the cat guards its territory and plans escape routes.

Since this is instinctive behavior, it is unlikely that you will be able to wean your pet off this “bad” habit.

There is no need to be angry at the cat lying on the threshold; it is not lying there to bother you.
