¿TU GATO NO TE DEJA EN PAZ? 😼 | ¿Por qué tu gato te busca y LLAMA TU ATENCIÓN? ¿Te está molestando?

We all love our cats very much. We adore them and idolize them. But let's admit it, sometimes they get annoying and won't stop bothering us. Well, today I'm going to tell you how to fix that. Hi, I'm Carlos and I'm a veterinarian. Welcome to the Happy Pets and Families Channel. Our feline companions are the center of our lives. You love having them live with you and they probably love living under the same roof as you. We haven't asked them, but we're pretty sure. The thing is that during your day to day life, your cat sometimes wants to demand your attention all the time. And many people refer to this as my cat is bothering me. I want us to banish the word bothering from our vocabulary when referring to cats because your cat isn't bothering you, it just has some needs that it wants to see met and it's demanding them from you. But anyway, regardless of the word we use in this video, I've identified the five most common reasons why a cat, so to speak, bothers you. And I'm also going to tell you how you can act in this regard so that you can correct it. 1. It hunts and bites your legs. There are many people who live with their feline companion and complain that their cat attacks their legs. When they are walking down a hallway in their house or turning a corner, there is the cat waiting to smack it, jump on its legs and stay there hooked. This is usually interpreted by families as a sign of aggression and they say, oh my cat is very bad, very bad, very very bad. And every time it sees me appear it takes the opportunity to scratch my legs. It is bothering me. No, your cat is not bothering you. It is indicating that it does not have enough entertainment at home. This type of behavior is displayed by cats when they are bored. Cats are predatory animals and they love to hunt. So if you don't want your legs to be hunted, make it hunt something else. Giving our feline companion an average of 30 minutes a day. Half an hour of no games will solve many problems because it helps them bond with us. But above all, they will have an alternative to hunt other than your legs. Cats are greatly stimulated by hunting, moving things or offer them games that they can stalk, hunt and bite. For example a rod or balls, also these little rulers with feathers or any stuffed animal that you throw and that moves and the cat can reach and jump on two. It doesn't let you work. Raise your hand if you've never been working on your computer and your cat hasn't come and put it on the keyboard. I don't think there has been anyone. Many cats have an office complex. They love a good computer. A good computer, and especially if we are using it. There are also times when they get very close to our video game console and put their head right in front of the screen so that you can't see anything at all, concentrate, or work. That's in the best case scenario. Because sometimes what they put in front of our faces are their butts. This feline behavior is very, very common. Computers, video game consoles, and screens are electronic devices that are warm. And cats, unless it's extremely hot and they want to lie on the floor with their entire body, generally like to be near a heat source at all times. This would be the first reason, but there are a few more that could explain this behavior. We use these electronic devices with our fingers, and it could be that our feline companion is drawn to the movement we make on the keyboard. And the third reason could be because we spend a lot of time in front of that screen, and it's normal for our cat to want to come with us, to want us to pay them a little attention. They might say, I'm going to go up to my human to see if he gives me a little love. The best solution to prevent your cat from bothering you while you're working or playing on your video game console is to provide a bed for it, a more or less warm resting place, so that it can prefer to use your computer keyboard. It is possible that from time to time you make a mistake, and instead of touching the mouse or the mouse of your computer, you can run your hand over your cat's back and it will be very grateful because you are paying it some attention. It means that your cat wasn't bothering you, it just wanted to be near you. 3. It won't stop meowing. There are many people who are desperate because their cats are constantly meowing as if they were trying to tell them something. If your cat is doing this, it is not trying to bother you. Sometimes it is indicating that something is wrong with it. What happens is that you are not knowing how to see. Is very common for our feline companions to meow when they are sick. Some diseases that cause our cats to meow more than usual, or in quotes, bother us are, for example, feline hyperesthesia. This disease causes them to have extreme sensitivity in their skin, and suddenly when they feel anything touching their skin, they get up and start running around your house, sometimes meowing. Another disease that causes this is, for example, feline hyperthyroidism. You can suspect that if you see that your cat is a little older, continues to eat the same amount of food but is losing weight, you notice that it seems a little nervous or even drinks more water and urinates more. But perhaps you live with an older cat. Older cats sometimes begin to suffer from the process of senile dementia, as happens to people, especially at night. Cats often get disoriented and can't find their resting areas or, for example, their food bowl or litter box. If they feel like going during the night and so out of frustration and not being able to find these things, they start meowing because they're disoriented, we can't blame them. They're not trying to bother you, they're simply telling you that they can't find their things. But I don't want to tell you that if your cat meows excessively, it means they're sick. There are other causes, and we've already told you about them on the channel below is a video with all the reasons why cats meow more than they should. Go ahead and take a look. Your cat chases you when you least want to. Sometimes you may feel a little down in the dumps, but on those days when your cat is around you, it demands much more of your attention. If you've noticed this, leave me a comment and tell me. Well, it turns out that there is a reason for this. It has been scientifically proven that our cats can tell how we are feeling and are able to act accordingly. I will leave the article below, as always, and what has been observed is that when we are in a slightly lower mood, a little more depressed, our cats notice that we interact with them less. They realize that you are not well, that something in your behavior has changed with them, and so they overcompensate. And when they sit near us, they may come closer to us, rub their heads against us more, or even talk more than usual. We can say that your cat wants to cheer you up, wants to feel that the connection, the bond they have with you is still alive. 5. They don't stop asking you for food Cats are very prone to developing a certain anxiety about food. There are some who don't, as I can see in the comments you're going to leave on the video, who have their food on all day long and who aren't anxious and who eat wonderfully. But there are others who are asking you to fill their food bowl all day long. This could be due to many causes, from stress, any type of disorder in their metabolism that makes them eat much more, or that they simply get bored. Your cat is not bothering you. They have simply learned how the food mechanism works in your home. The mechanism, in case it's not clear to you, is you. It has been shown by observing the behavior of cats in a scientific article that I found super interesting and that I'll leave here for you below, that our feline companions change the level of interaction they have with their humans depending on whether or not they can freely access the food. If the cat can, even if it's just moving the lid of a container to get to a treat, it's normal that even if they look at their human and see if they can give them a hand, they end up solving that puzzle and taking their food. But if the cat knows that the food is inside a covered jar and can't uncover it, or inside a cupboard, we could also say this in our home, what the cat usually does is go to your hand to tell you, hey, solve the problem for me. I want what's in there. And that's why the cat is constantly demanding its food. This is the reason why cats sometimes meow at us non stop when we're watching tv. Or some cats wake their humans up at night and fill their bowl with food to get them to leave them alone and let them sleep all night. The cat only learns and already knows that when it wants to eat, all it has to do is activate the food mechanism. Activate you. And since you're doing it, you're reinforcing that connection that your cat has in its brain. If I demand food from my human and my human fills my bowl of food, all one have to do is ask for it every time I want it. And how do you break this vicious circle? How can you make your cat stop demanding its food? Well, it's very simple. By ignoring it. The end. Okay, it's not that simple. Our cats can be really persistent. And sometimes, if the meowing doesn't work, they can move on to other slightly more persuasive tactics. In fact, some people even urinate on their shoes or even on their arms or faces when they're lying in bed. Hi Cynthia. This will eventually end in a fight to see who can stand it the longest. And since your cat probably has a lot more standing than you, I'm telling you, here are a series of solutions to your problem. What can we conclude from all this exactly? Your cat isn't bothering you, it's simply telling you that it has needs and that you need to meet them. Human, do your job as a Human. And take good care of your feline companion. And you tell me if your cat has ever bothered you, and if you knew it was for any of these reasons, leave me a comment so we can all find out. And as always, like, subscribe and hit the bell. We also have a secondary channel here on YouTube called Questions and Answers from a Veterinarian. Head over and take a look. And before we go, we meet little Ramona, who lives in Peru with her human Lizbeth. And she's so pretty. And here's Lee, this kitten that they adopted when she was so tiny. She currently lives with Miriam. And we say goodbye to Anak King, the black one with the mysterious gaze, and Pasmi, the blonde one on top. They live with Lola and her daughter Delia. Delia was in charge of naming them. Thank you very much for following the channel Happy pets and Families. And we'll see you in the next video. After they left me. Well, it looks good on me. I tie myself a call. No way. No, no. Like this. Now you can see the whole radiator. Hello. It looks like the whole radiator. The whole radiator. Back there. I think you left it in the same place. Let's see. It's changing, right? Yes. No, probably not. I. You probably love pizza. It's a statement. I'm not leaving it there. Conjunctive, right? Yes. Or the. But there are times when he puts his butt in your face. Shut up. How disgusting. Yes. I wouldn't want to say it here. Oh, that happened with this guy. He's a demon. Don't you remember that the grandfather had a stunning girlfriend named Wanda, or something like that? Wanda. And the boy puts the camera on him when he was going to give the speech. And nobody chooses him. Well, you're the same. You're much nicer with the camera on than off. Josebe could tell me. Okay, now be nice, Carlos. Now. Now, that's it. We're going to leave it as a positive idea. We haven't asked her, but we're almost convinced. We haven't asked her, but we're almost sure. We haven't asked her, but we know. I want us to banish this word from our language because of our vocabulary. But I'm going to keep using it during the video, man. No, Zaska is owl for Zaska who live together. Don't laugh. Yes, it's her. Well, I don't know if it's her. That's not true, man. She also knows it's you because. But seek help. It comes across as well There you go. And from here, of course, I can't tell you. Hey, are you feeling bad? Don't feel bad. It's.
