Cat owners who have cats at home know that cats’ personalities are generally more arrogant, and the degree of relatives is relatively unstable, and they may stick to you one minute and not come down, and the next minute they will suddenly kick you and run away. And the cat owners who have been raising cats since they were children are even more touched: cats are obviously very clingy when they are young, but when they grow up, they become more and more cold. In fact, whether the cat is close to its relatives is still related to the needs, and the needs mentioned here include the needs of daily survival and psychological needs.
You can think about it and then silently compare it to see if adult cats usually take the initiative to interact with cat owners in the following things: hungry or thirsty, it’s time to clean up the cat litter, the house is too cold, unwell, bored and want to play with you, see you doing things for a long time and ignore it, etc.
If the cat can open the can, open the cat food box and snack packaging by itself, and shovel the feces by itself, change the cat litter or something, then it does not need to remind the cat owner to do these things. They can’t do it themselves, but they are forced to survive, so they come to report to the cat owner, and when it is cold, they will come to the cat owner to keep warm. So if the cat is uncharacteristically sticky to you in winter, don’t be happy too early, it is likely that the room temperature is too low.
The psychological need is that the cat feels a little boring and boring, so it is better to play with the cat owner for a while, or suddenly find that the cat owner has not paid attention to him for a while, so he takes the initiative to play with the cat owner or understand the situation. So if you are at work or playing a game when the cat runs around you, and wants to jump on the table and on you, don’t be too happy, maybe people are just curious to study what you are doing, and leave after researching, don’t entangle each other, so that you can get together and disperse.
Just like many people have asked the question: What does it mean for a cat to pose belly in front of you? Those who answered “This means that the cat trusts you very much and is very relieved” are not wrong, but there are many people who answer “It wants you to touch its belly~”, the person who answered like this is to watch the excitement and not think it’s a big deal, the cat’s belly rolls up to the sky or sleeps, it is indeed a sign that it is very comfortable and at ease with the environment, but it is definitely not for you to touch, if you have a good temper, it is nothing to touch, if you have a bad temper, it is a set of eighteen palms of the dragon plus Foshan shadowless feet.
So why are young cats more clingy than adult cats? The reason is this: they are still small, and many of the necessary abilities for survival have not yet been mastered or are not yet skilled, so they need the care and help of cat owners more than large cats. Especially the kind of kittens who don’t have a cat mother around, they are very insecure, and they also need the company and care of the cat owner, and some little milk cats will even regard the cat owner as their mother.
If the cat owner wants the cat to be closer to him, then what you have to do is to show your irreplaceable importance as much as possible, for example, you know its personality, temperament, state and needs better than anyone else, the cat meows with a look and you know whether it is time to get food or shovel, no one is more willing to patiently tolerate it, accompany it, and love it. In the long run, cats will trust you more and more, rely on you, and be willing to spend more time with you.
But not all cats have clingy personalities. Like us humans, their expression is closely related to personality and habits, and if a cat is not close to you, it does not mean that it is not familiar with it or does not recognize you, it is just such a personality. My attitude is that it is good if it likes it, and it is good to feel at ease. For example, my bear is usually like a skin child, and he has a good relationship with the cats, especially like to be with the big head. Although it is not clingy, it is relaxing and happy every day, and for me it is enough.
