Has your meowing four-legged friend suddenly started hiding from you, even though you haven’t done anything bad to your pet?
This is a reason to be wary. After all, the fluffy one will not just try to become "invisible".
If the cat started looking for a “shelter” for itself, then something unpleasant happened.
Why is the cat hiding?
This is standard behavior for cats who feel vulnerable.
If a cat is injured or has an illness, it will begin to look for a quiet and safe place where it can become invisible.
Why? The answer is simple: during illness, the animal's instinct is triggered, forcing it to flee from a potential "enemy".
Yes, no one will attack the cat in the apartment. But the fluffy one will still try to hide.
Therefore, know this: if your meowing pet has found a secluded place for itself and is afraid to leave it, then it most likely feels unwell.
And if the cat starts meowing, hissing and resisting when you try to pull it out of its “shelter”, then the conclusion is obvious: your four-legged friend needs to be taken to a veterinary clinic immediately.
