It may seem incredible to some, but domestic cats can also get bored. And not only when their owners go to work.

It happens that a cat is bored, and the owner does not notice it or does not understand the melancholy of the pet's monotonous life. Here are some tips that will cheer up the animal.

Destructive behavior

If a cat gets bored, they will start entertaining themselves and trying their best to attract attention.

Therefore, if a cat destroys something, spoils furniture and curtains, disturbs the peace and is generally naughty, then you need to think about your pet’s leisure time.

Self-care

With nothing to do, pets begin to pay attention and time to their own person. Caring for fur and skin can lead to irritations and inflammations.

But at the same time, it can be a sign of health problems.

Constant sleep

Cats already devote a significant part of their free time to sleep and slumber. But if a pet sleeps more than 15-16 hours a day, this is already an alarming signal.

It is also worth considering if the cat starts to eat away depression and loses all interest in new objects.

How to fix

You can start spending more time with your cat, get a second pet, start playing and buy scratching posts and houses for the animal, where it will be interesting for the animal to climb and hide if necessary.

Be sure to leave some space on the window so your pet can watch what's going on outside, and buy some interactive toys.
