My cat thinks I'm hiding snacks from him. And he's right.
My cat knows I hide snacks from him. He's a big fan of bread and bread accessories
I always figured they are afraid I might do something interesting without them. 😂
FOMO

My cat does do that, hahaha. He did it to me earlier when I made a video. He photo bombed it with his tail.
To be fair…you might!
Cat: "time to check my foodsouce"
Can I kill and eat it? No. Do I want to be petted? No. Okay, move out!
Once when I was sick and had Panadol, I was sleeping deeply, my cat pushed my hand with her nose, scratched my arm and finally smelled my nose to check on my breath… after that she was sleeping beside me for many days… like a guardian
Was the cat fixing to call an ambulance for you if you needed it? You are aware that as soon as you die and that cat notices that you're dead the cat will start eating you? Dogs on the other hand will wait till they're dying of starvation IF they'll even do it. Cat? Naw that mf'er is waiting for you to stop breathing so it can start eating you.

I just have a question for you... Do you have a hatred for cats? Did you know
Cats and humans evolutionarily diverged from a common ancestor (boreoeutherian ancestor) approximately 80 million years ago, accumulating only 10-12 chromosomal translocations.[68] The order of eight genes on the cats' Y chromosome closely resembles that in humans.[69] Genes on X chromosomes of cats and humans are arranged in a similar way. A 2007 study revealed that 90% of human and cat genes are homologous, meaning that they were inherited from a common ancestor. Do you know how genetically close your feline is it to you? You may have thought that dogs would be a little closer to humans on the evolutionary scale, but it turns out that cats actually have 90.2% of the DNA in common with us! You read that right! A 2007 study found that about 90% of the genes in the Abyssinian domestic cat are similar to humans. The cat and human genomes each contain approximately 2.5-3 billion base pairs. Yes! According to Teresa Manucy, DVM, a veterinarian at VCA Fleming Island Animal Hospital, cats can recognize and differentiate their name from other household pets' names. She says this recognition is likely due to positive reinforcement or a cat's association of their name with attention, food, or play. Plus Cat domestication took place in two strains, but all domestic cats have a common ancestor: the North African / Southwest Asian wildcat, Felis silvestris lybica. Other scientists have also discovered another potential instance of cat domestication. Jean-Denis Vigne studied skeletal remains of cats in China and found that there may have been a short-lived domestication of leopard cats in China, independent of domestication elsewhere (Vigne et al., 2016). However, they did not find evidence that any present day domesticated cats are related to leopard cats, so if there was a time that they were domesticated, it did not last ( Another interesting element of the history of cat domestication has to do with cat coat patterns. Analyzing the pattern of cat coats is one of the best way
Cats are awesome cats like other animals do not need an excuse to hate... ONLY us humans do that. Then we use things like Religion location to cast judgment upon each other.

I have three cats, I don't know what I'd do without them.
I have 3 cats too and I am obsessed with them 😍
Maybe have a family, you freaking weirdo
My cat likes to always check on me while I'm in the bathroom 😅she thinks it's a group activity 😂😂😂
@@lindadoughty4824 There is guaranteed lap to sit on in that bathroom. 😂😂😂
Yes mine too😂
My cats always joined in on bathroom time
. Our one cat Rupert will sit in your pants if you are sitting on the toilet...
@@CarsCatAliens 😂😂😂😂
@@lindadoughty4824 We call it "Telling ghost stories". It was a cut away scene in an animated show..Kid hiding under the covers with a flashlight "Go away, I'm reading ghost stories"
I got one of my horrible cluster migraines when I was house sitting for my family, I was also watching our new family member and he was just a few months in. But I remember falling asleep in the sofa and covering my head trying to get relieve when I felt our new family member lay its whole body on my chest and purr. I couldn’t help but shed a tear not from pain but from how much I loved him for even noticing let alone trying to help me. Jojo is always going to have a place In my heart from that day on. A great kitty!

When my girlfriend tripped and fell and broke her ankle our cat literally jumped out of the top of the cat tree running to her, she just knew something bad had happened and she has done this several other times for other reasons. She is extremely protectful and often just comes aroubd to make sure you are ok.
They are reminding you that they are still watching you.
And that you had best continue to serve them, if you know what is good for you.
When I get sick, my cat Dax stays in the bed with me by my pillow. When I was asleep in the bathtub once, my cat Crookshanks meowed in my ear really loud. I think he was trying to keep me from drowning. There's no way I was going to drown, but he didn't know that. I have some really nurturing cats.
I’m glad my cat is always close to me ❤
I notice my cat hangs out in strategic locations in the house that allow her to have an eye or ear on everyone in the house.
My Shadow checks on me constantly! She comes up on the couch to get petted
My cat does that too! They fight over who will get pet first🤣🤣🤣
My boy sits behind and stares at me while I’m at the kitchen sink. 😂
Cats own humans and like to check on their pets once in a while.
The Alien reason was a real eye-opener 😮 it was interesting to place yourself in cat's perspective like that...
I (sadly) don't have a cat. But the four different neighbour's cats used to ALWAYS fight over which one of them gets to sit on my lap. I genuinely miss some of the kitties since they, and their providers, moved away. One of their providers still texts me to let me know how my furry friend is doing. ^_^
❤❤❤❤
Cats, like dogs, feel more secure knowing their humans are all right. I had a cat that went deaf. Not being able to hear the bustle of her humans made her very distressed. Had they abandoned her? She started yowling loudly in the middle of the night. One look at one of us and she was back to normal.
6:49 “coming into MY room?”
I don’t have a room. I have a teeny slice of my cats bed. That she shares with me
Making sure the servants are still in the house and not goofing off on the job. Because somebody has to make dinner, keep the litter box clean, provide heat or a/c as required, leave out baskets of clean laundry to nap on and shed all over.
I had 2 cats, and had abdominal surgery. Both kitties got along, but one promptly decided he was my guardian and kept the other pets not just off the bed but out of the bedroom until I was up and around.
My cat, Domino, knew something was up and that there was stress and commotion in the house when I was getting ready to leave for uni. She’d check in on me when I was packing and gave me a send off. She also knew when my dog was dying. She’d head butt and snuggle up with my poor old lady when she clearly had only a few more days in her. Cats can be incredibly intuitive, much like dogs.
My kitty is always checking on me
since im about to get a cat, i always watch these videos to help me know what to do when i get the cat, thanks for the information
P.S. cats like calm guitar playing
Mine doesn't. If I even pick up my guitar she changes rooms.
My little watch cat sleeps on the bed, parked between me and the bedroom door. Always on guard.
My cat LOVES getting skritches on his head and chin. Hes my baby boy.
I broke my ankle and was recovering post op. My cat stayed by my side. She also got real defensive if anyone came what she felt was too close.
This is a very educational video. I'm not a cat owner, but this teaches me all about Kitties and their personalities.
Absolutely! 🐾 I'm glad you found it informative!
@@Feline_Fanatics Thank you. I actually have the SuperKitties to partially thank for that.
My family had around four cats when I was a kid .. 30 some years, it's just third nature when they're around.
There are no blind steps in my house. My little dude is ALWAYS close by
I really love your channel and I’ve learned so much. It’s fantastic.
Thank you so much! 🐾 I'm thrilled to hear you're enjoying the channel and finding it helpful. Your support means a lot.
The voice over reminds me of guy who narrated Battleblock Theater lmao
Love the "Alien" reason though. Some cats are so smart, I think they really do want to understand
My cat had to be let into the bathroom while I was throwing up last night.... She was concerned, lol! Trying to headbutt me as I'm heaving....
😸 Cats have such unique ways of showing their concern, don't they? It sounds like she wanted to comfort you in her own furry way.
Awwwww! She was trying to help!
I always thought my cat keeps checking on me because he keeps wondering what I taste like.
The mastery of the craft is clear. Keep inspiring us with amazing work!
My two sleep during the rare thunderstorm storm. But they sleep on or next to me. I don’t do well in thunderstorms so their presence is comforting.
My cat will tolerate other cats walking through the yard, but wants outside to confront a bear that raids the bird feeders.
My cats constantly check on me.
When Im sitting in the lounge room, they mill in and out of the room, eventually settling into their own spaces.
When I leave the room, they leave as well.
That's so cute! 😺 It sounds like your cats are always keeping tabs on you, just making sure you're around and all is good
@@Karen8ism I have an entourage around the house as well. 😂
lol. I had a cat who did this. My backyard was pretty much a catio. They have a cat door that they could go in and out through. There was a window included in the area that looked into the room I was usually in. He would quite often be seen looking in to see me. Sometimes he’d even come running in, sometimes meowing, run right to me, touch me, get a pat and then go back outside. Interestingly enough there were times you just KNEW he wanted me to follow, then sit outside and watch him doing whatever.
I am pretty confident that my cat is an alien, one that has been assigned to watch us incognito and this was the best disguise they could come up with. Have a look at your cats face from the right angle and see how much they look like the typical "grey" alien.
Lol! When our grandson was 😂4 ( at that time in a ‘dog’ family’i drew an ‘alien’ for him starting with the eyes, when I got to the ears his exasperated response was great!
BTW he now has a cat!
Without watching the video I’m going with “they’re hungry and you might have died since the last time they saw you”
My cat is always checking on me, but a lot of it has to do with the fact that we share a small condominium, and she doesn't want to get stepped on by my big feet. I do not blame her. I do my best to avoid it, but she also loves to be near me. It is a tricky dance.
Meowth: Jessie and James can't blast off without me.
My cat does it to learn my weaknesses. That's also how he hunts mice.
The only thing a cat checks on is the regular, timely sound of a can opening.
My moms cat started nibbling on my hand when I was sick I think the cat was eating me 😂
My cat is ALWAYS with me so he doesn’t check up on me 😸
When my cats are outside and I'm in the living room watching TV or playing a game, the cats will every five minutes or so jump on the window to look at me, then they want me to open the window to let them in. Then they come in, look at me, then walk right back to the door and meow to be let out, and this will go on all day until nightfall when it's time for bed. Then they don't meow at the door usually. Idk why they do that, it's very annoying having to constantly open the window, but at the end of the day I love them with all my heart, and enjoy all the time I get to spend with them. Their lives are too short, and 12 or so years aren't enough. But I will be reunited with all my loved ones in heaven, and that is the only consolation I have. Both human and animal families. Together forever, with no tears, fear, or pain. Only joy forever with the Father.
Cats feel like they should be able to get to and from wherever they want to. My cats dont go outdoors because my house is just 15 feet from a very fast road and also ATV trail, the sounds outside terrify them. But in the house if a door is closed that they think should be open they are unhappy. I don't always want my basement door open so its closed all the time. Sometimes they want thru the door but theyve learned it only opens very rarely and i guard it sometimes because i dont want them down there all the time. So they give up easily when they do want thru. Because your cats want to come in and out whenever they feel like it, if you comply with them everytime they will become even more frustrated if you don't let them in. I think its good to just accept it and love their little annoyances, but the truth is that if you don't want them to do that, it just means ignoring them sometimes so they will learn that the window isn't always going to open on their command every 5 minutes.
@makeshift_battlefield_music Yeah, I know, and I guess I should be firmer with them, but I can't help it. They have fun going outside, and we live in the country, so I just deal with it. When the mosquitoes aren't bad, I leave the windows open for them so they can mosey about at their own leisure. I used to never think I'd like cats until they all just wandered onto my property and never left, so I adopted the four of them, I felt so bad for them not having a home, that I just kept them. It's been like that my whole life, I've never had to go to a pound or shelter. Animals have always just wandered in and stayed. Before, it was dogs, and now cats. Idk what brings them here. God, I reckon, but im always happy to see them come and decide to live here. My wife is a soft ass like I am, too, and she can't turn them away either, so it works out. I'm fine with the little annoyances cause I know one day I'll miss them more than anything else.
Cats simply keep an eye on their human servants. That's how life is.
My cat is afraid of nothing. He also eats any scorpions that sneak in, size makes no difference. He even attacked a German Sheppard.
My cats like spiders, I live butted up to a forest and get some pretty US quarter size and up spiders. I always find them dead with the back side missing.
Food., more food, hey...I am starving here!, more food.
My cat would attack the monsters under the bed by herself.
Making sure youre doing what they told you to do
'Closet', 'Yard', 'Kitties', 'Can Opener' - this is obviously designed for the American market, despite the commentator's accent!
Wait but who is the boss cat when multiple like grooming each other on the head? Or do they see each other as equal in that case, since the human is already the boss?
I wish I had my little guy to check on me. 😢
2:44 - I think that older person has passed away, wondering what happened to their lives.
I believe that, besides we ourselves, God has a special place in His heart for His cats, big and small. Amazing creatures. They're clean, elegant, beautiful, furry, cuddly, superb predators, intelligent, they play, always land on their feet and they purr! What's not to love? And I'll add that cats have always been the most efficient, and 'organic' way to protect man's food supplies from verminous raiders. They are our close friends, as are dogs, and we should do better to take care of both species.
Hearing your parents “talking” in the other room. And then when you get married and have little kids you can be “talking” in your room with your wife. She died last year and I miss “talking” with her.
When I take a bath, my cat sits on the rim. My lifeguard making sure I don't drown. She usually stays within 3 feet of me to make sure I don't get lost.
To see if I’m dead yet so it can eat me
Another reason: She had a dream that you went away, wakes up and lies right next to your computer while you are using it, for a long time. That's what I think sometimes.
My two always mark me. My girl is taking her day lap shift and her brother is next to me. Not touching. At night if his sister steals my lap, my boy will lay against me. He’ll take his night shift on my lap if his sister is elsewhere. They like to follow me. Night cuddles they like before bed.
summing up the video: we have no idea of why they do it, but we can imagine a few plausible explanations, some of them contradictory
I wish my cats checked on me. Instead I have two shadows just waiting for me to sit/lay down so they can have a pillow.
I wonder what it's like to have thoughts without language. Is it really thought?
My cat couldn't care less where I am unless she's hungry.
Can you tell us why everytime you go to hang out the washing your cat always seems to have to be there too watching what you are doing?
Isn't that just typical cat behavior? 😸 They're curious little creatures and always want to be involved in whatever we're up to, even if it's just hanging out the washing! It's like they're our little supervisors, making sure we do everything just right.
they're checking to see if they can eat you yet.
They're seeing if they can eat you yet.
I am more powerful than my cat
Cats Are People Too!
No, it's because there's a remote chance that I have food.
She is her human’s owner😂
I was on the couch with a fever and the flu. My dogs didn’t care..
Reason number 5 is a little bit too much personification in my opinion
Things that we humans can do no other species are capable of doing that. We are indeed aliens to all other animals as well including Cats. 👽
To see if I'm dead yet. So they can eat me.
Do cats have souls?
That's my question for today.
I am sure of it. 😊
I believe cats have souls because just like us, they are conscious beings.
No such thing.
@@lynnebattaglia-triggs1042no such thing ?! How can you say something so cynical . Well some people don't have it either . For real.
Of course they do.
My cat could care less
Great video! I learned a lot. My cat is always checking in on me. Sometimes she does not want to be picked up or play. Now I know she is just checking on me. We love each other.
That's awesome! 😸 Sounds like you and your cat have a special bond.
Mostly to see if you're dead yet so it can eat you.
They want to make sure you’re safe
To see if you’re dead so they can eat you.
To make sure your still alive duh
They don’t want to starve to death
"You still alive, hooman? Good. Supper is in 2 hours. Khajiit will be back to remind you in 20 minutes."

That's such a beautiful bond you have with your furry angel! 🌟 Pets truly become family members when we open our hearts to them. 🐾
Cats are not exactly "prey animals"
They're just checking to see if you are still breathing. That's why they look so disappointed.
You plainly can't take care of yourself. You sleep too long. You can't even catch mice. They're afraid you might get lost in your own home without their personal supervision. Maybe the vacuum cleaner monster will get you, since you don't have sense enough to be afraid of it. Anything could happen!
All humans can do is speculate. Stop acting like a god
A master checking on their slaves performance.Thats all.
Because you cat wants to eat you.
Please stop with the bull. No cat sees themselves as a god emperors. They see you as mom or dad or part of their security and family. Stop being arrogant. Live with some cats. They cuddle, check on u, sometimes do their own thing, etc... as long as you treat them right and not abuse them.
I hate cats.
They speak well of you
What are you a communist?
Perhaps you were scratched or bitten as a young child? Traumas at a young age are deeply entrenched, and can hinder growth in other aspects of life. 😕
@@thominaduncanson7596 I've met a small handful of cats in my life, none of them when I was a child.the only cat I've ever liked was legit mentally challenged, had a wobbly head, ran like it was in a cartoon, and hid 90% of the time. Cats are aggressive, they're mean for absolutely no reason whatsoever, and they're completely unpredictable. Raccoons are more tolerable than cats are. Id rather meet a raccoon eating out of a dumpster than a cat eating out of a dumpster. People who work with animals (vets/shelters) will all agree dogs are way easier to deal with, less aggressive than cats are.
Not to mention the second you die your cute little cat will start eating you, that's proven fact. A dog will have to be starving to death before it'd even concider eating its owner, cats? A day in, they start munching down on your flesh.
cat parent? wtf! They are pests.
u are also a pest stewart, just bigger
Bit like yourself
Predict that the cat distribution system now has your name…cats believe that no one could ever really dislike them, that it is just a misunderstanding. 😁
My cat always comes downstairs when I go to shower, is just waiting and then follows back upstairs. Once out of curiosity I faked dropping out on the floor when coming out from shower room, wanted to know what he would do in such situation. I lied down on my back eyes closed, heard him meaow a few times before poking my hand a bit. After that he bit my finger, slowly increasing force until it almost hurt, but I didn't react. But, then he just charged my head like a bull, giving a strong headbutt straight to my temple - and it worked, had to stand up and go upstairs to check the mirror, is big strong 8kg male cat and it really hurt... had a notable bump and bruise there, also bit of blue beneath my eye a few days... Cannot call the test a genuine "success" I suppose, but was kinda happy with the results anyways! 🤕👍
My kittie has taken the role of guardian and healer of my injured ribs and bad back which has made it hard to walk and stand.
So she has become my bed side nurse as it were.
@@bohemianwriter1 Mine was like that when I hurt my knee. Sat at the end of the bed day and night, and hissed anyone away who tried to come near. 😆
