Many cat owners complain about the inability to use their smartphones without any problems.

As soon as a person starts a telephone conversation, the fluffy one is immediately nearby.

Purr begins to distract its owner in every possible way: meowing, hissing, “hitting” with its paw.

Does your pet also exhibit this behavior? Know: most likely, your four-legged friend is showing… jealousy.

Fluffy starts to get jealous of a person's mobile device.

The cat thinks that its owner stops noticing it because of the gadget.

This explains the strange behavior of the cat when a person starts talking on the phone.

So, the pet begins to hiss at the “enemy” (smartphone) and tries to distract the owner from the “rival”.

Similarly, a cat may be jealous of its owner's computer and books.

What should a pet owner do?

There is only one way out: start paying more attention to your four-legged friend. Pet your cat more often and play with him.

And also try not to “immerse yourself” in your smartphone or laptop in the presence of your cat.

If you follow these recommendations, your pet will stop perceiving devices as “rivals”.
