Owners of cats have a hard time at night because their pets settle down to sleep at their feet.
Not wanting to disturb the cat, some continue to sleep in an uncomfortable position.
Experts have named the main reasons that make a cat lie down in this particular part of the bed.
Firstly, despite the fact that cats are predators by nature, they themselves like to feel safe. This is the main reason why a cat sleeps at your feet.
Secondly, cats get used to their owners and know that they will be disturbed less here than if they sleep next to them or closer to the pillow.
Thirdly, the animal needs to feel its owner, his smell. But at the same time, the cat tries to keep its distance in order to maintain its personal space and not to disturb the person.
And, of course, we can’t forget about smells.
A pet may like one smell more than another. Therefore, at different times, the animal may sleep in different places.
It has also been noted that before the cold snap, cats look for a warmer place. In this case, they can settle closer again.
