The loss of a cat causes stress for both the owner and his pet.
Why do cats run away from home?
There are many reasons why a domestic cat might end up on the street.
Among the most common of these are curiosity, hunting instinct, sexual desire, fear and other factors that are invisible to the owner, but important for the animal itself.
How to prevent a cat from going missing
The following preventive measures will help prevent your cat from escaping.
1. It is your responsibility as the owner of the animal to teach the cat to respond to its name.
2. The next thing you can do to keep your pet safe is to install window screens to prevent escape through the window.
3. In addition to the windows, you should also keep an eye on the front door. If there are a lot of guests in the house and the door is constantly opening and closing, consider locking your pet in a carrier.
4. A carrier is also needed to transport a cat over any distance.
5. When walking outside, use a harness (as cats can easily turn their heads out of the collar).
6. Consider spaying your pet to help eliminate sexual behavior as the primary cause of escape.
