Cats are known for their habit of climbing into things.
Any fluffy creature will definitely pay attention to the box standing in the room.
In addition, a meowing animal is unlikely to ignore a bag and an open closet.
The desire of the fluffy one to end up in any of these things is explained by the hunting instinct: the cat wants to observe the situation, while remaining unnoticed.
Perhaps the pet is expecting to see a rat or some other potential prey.
However, if the action is performed not for the sake of hunting, but simply to hide, then the owner of the animal should be wary.
If a cat refuses to leave a box or piece of furniture for a long time and has no desire to explore the surrounding space, then it is clearly not a matter of hunting instinct.
Why does the cat always hide?
The furry creature's desire to hide can be explained not only by the desire to start a hunt.
Perhaps the pet itself is afraid of becoming prey for someone else.
Such fear appears in an animal if it has health problems.
It is possible that the furry four-legged friend feels weak, and therefore vulnerable. In such a situation, the cat is afraid that a predator will see him. Therefore, the pet refuses to leave the safe place.
Thus, if the cat is constantly hiding, it is worth bringing it to the veterinary clinic. Specialists will find out if everything is okay with the animal's health.
