- There are a few things in this world that cats like more than a fresh meal.
In this video, we will discover the top 11 things that cats love the most.
High Spots
Most cats love to sleep and hang out in places with good vantage points. Whether it's the top of a refrigerator, a high shelf, or a window perch, cats feel more comfortable in the upper half of the room where they can keep an eye on the world around them.
Boxes
Cats love boxes because they get comfort and security from enclosed spaces. Boxes offer a safe zone where a cat can observe and not be seen. This is ideal for cats as their reaction to stressful situations is to run and hide.
A research conducted by the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands found that when cats were provided with boxes, they seemed to show lower stress levels.
Another set of research conducted by the National Research Council concluded that boxes can help keep a cat warm.
Seeing the world through the windows
Although cats do not depend on their sight as their primary sense, they can still see fairly clearly at distances of up to 20 feet. Open some of your shades and blinds, so your cat can see what’s going on outdoors.
High-pitched voice
Cats like being talked to and there are scientific studies that back this claim up.
Cats are more likely to respond and socialize with people if they are spoken to in a calm and soft voice. This means that volume and tone of voice are essential elements when talking to felines because they may feel safe or threatened depending on the loudness or tone of our voice.
Cat-toys that mimic pray
For cats, play is serious business. They engage their natural hunting instincts through play.
The toys cats enjoy most are the ones that add a bit of realism to a mock-hunting adventure. The more a toy feels, looks, moves, and even smells like prey, the better cats like it.
Heat
Archaeological evidence suggests that all domestic cats come from the African wildcat called Felis Silvestris Lybica that originated in the Middle-East. As descendants of desert animals, domestic cats are hard-wired to thrive in hot climates.
With an average body temperature of 102 degrees Fahrenheit, cats living in cooler climates must compensate for their temperature-sensitivity.
Catnip
Cats love catnip and most felines get hyperactive in response to this plant. They roll over on it, purr loudly, flip onto the floor, and eventually calm down. Cat behaviorists often recommend catnip for relief during stressful situations, like traveling, when introducing a new pet, or moving to a new home.
Researchers believe that catnip targets the “happy” receptors in the feline brain. It stimulates certain brain chemicals related to mood and happiness.
Listening to Cat Music
Cats love music, but they don’t enjoy human music - at least according to new research. A study published in the journal Applied Animal Behavior Science has discovered that in order for our feline friends enjoy music, it has to be composed specifically for cats.
Running water
Cats love drinking water from running faucets.
This is because cats are instinctively suspicious of stagnant water. In the wild, standing water is a breeding ground for bacteria and has the potential to make wild cats very sick.
The running water from the tap also probably tastes better because it's cooler and oxygenated.
You
If there’s one thing your cat loves more than food, it’s you, the human who gives them affection and love.
A 2017 research conducted in the Oregon State University studied what attracts cats the most.
The scientists offered cats a choice between food, toys, scent, and social interaction with humans and watched what happens. Believe it or not, they found that most cats prefer social interaction with humans over everything else - even food.
In another study, scientists brought cats and their owners to an unfamiliar environment where they had never been before. For a few minutes, they let the cat and the owner be together in the room. After that, the owner left the room and the cat was alone for two minutes. Scientists found that that two minutes alone was a phase of stressor milestone to cats
Scratching
Cats have a need to scratch. This one activity satisfies a wide variety of instinctual needs.
Encourage scratching by placing scratching posts in different areas of your home. Scratching posts need to be sturdy and tall. Your pet should be able to comfortably reach up, stretch, and scratch, without the posts tumbling over.
Now that you know what your cat loves the most, make sure to make time to incorporate them into their daily lives. They will thank you for it.

Thank you so much
Thanks I was looking for this comment 😀
Found you 😂
You're the hero we need but don't deserve.
Cats are so hardwired for warmth that back when I lived in a desert, even in summer, both of my mostly black cats would lounge for hours in the sunniest window spots. Genuinely surprised they never caught fire.
i wish my cats will run around outside in any weather, well minus the rain of course.
All those expensive toys and in the end all they wanted was a cardboard box.
Just like little kids eah?!
ALL THAT MONEY WASTED 😭
Let the cats be cats dont make them buy stuff , their animals they dont need it, just let them be animals let them be who they are.
-Very true. Our 4 year old cat loves to sleep in small narrow boxes that are just laying around in the rooms. I wanted to get a small newborn cute kitty But my son(the owner)says no for some reason.Maybe he will change his mind later.-I just love little kittens.I love our 4 yr old cat too But i can't see no harm in 2 cats.-Anyone else out there with 1 cat & 1 kitty in you're home? I need to show my heartless son this. Thank you'll very much.
@@auggie803 maybe your son thinks it's better to give an adult cat a home? (They're less likely to be adopted(
Husband retired and spent too much time talking to the cat. When I wanted to talk to him we had to face the cat and include him in conversation to avoid upsetting the cat. He insisted on participating and not being ignored.
They bring us so much joy and happiness.
That's hilarious meow
My cat does the same thing, when we have a family chat he needs to be there and say "meow", we say that he is stating an opinion on the subject lol
My cat gets so pissed sometimes when I'm even just talking on the phone :D
He's right... It's extremely rude to have a conversation and ignore someone who's nearby...
6:03 when I get home, the first thing my cat wants to do is cuddle. Even if he’s hungry and I put food in his bowl, he still wants to cuddle for a while first.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww sounds soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute
My cat hates cuddling she just likes to sit at the end of the bed and not be touched
@@guacamole4724 does she ever rub up against you or anything? I’ve seen cats like that, but It’s weird if they’re like that to an owner.
@@theknightswhosay yea all the time she even likes to be pet but she does not like being picked up or payed with

I hum lullabies to my kitten to calm him down & it works like a charm. He falls right asleep. I also baby talk to him & he turns to mush, its the cutest thing.
I play music for cats.... she loves it!
How old is he? My little man,Felix, will be 3 months old Oct.1.
@@carrielucas5672 I will have to check on that! What do you recommend?

Lullabies really work with cats 😻 There is a super lullaby for cats on my channel that will help you fall asleep within 5 minutes 💤💤💤😍
My cat past away last week had her for 18 years. I really miss her your video brings smile to my face
Sorry for your loss 🙏🏾
So sad for you.
I hope you’re doing ok. I know it can be
Hellish. Hang in there, k? Prayers for you coming your way.
18yrs that says alot about the care u gave her.. Im sorry for ur loss but i bet she had a great life with u
Although you know that nothing can replace the cat that passed, it usually is a big help to your grieving heart to eventually invite a new kitty into your home.
1:05 #10 Boxes. Here is a good tip for a box cats adore: place a box, with its open end on the side, put a towel with the scent of the cat's owner folded on the bottom, and cover it with a T-shirt that also has the owner smell so that the neckline becomes a passage, or a portal for the cat to get in or out, this way the box becomes special, and a bit of a cave, and the owner scent makes it extra inviting. If you ever need to leave your cat for a few days at home unnatended, this kit makes them feel protected and safe until you return, and it costs nothing!
We did that transporting a rescue kit i had to raise for a month, the lid was on tho (airholes ofc) and although she knew me she wasn't happy about being stuffed into a paper box & moved...
She was none too pleased & it took her about 36 hrs to come out of the corner she was hiding but then she warned up...to this day hates boxes tho.
I have conditioned my cats to associate the sound of New Years fireworks with getting good food and treats. Now, whenever there is a thunder storm, they come and look at me like they are saying "don't we have a tradition in this house when there are scary sounds outside?"
Good idea ! I never would have thought of that
Our cat runs around with fear but also goes to the window to watch them
My three cats love going into empty paper bags. I empty them out from groceries and place them on the kitchen floor they jump right in. I love cats all my cats have been rescued cats from off the streets and I love every one of them dearly.
My cat just lovessss when I baby talk to her, she just totally turns to mush!!! She also loves and spend countless hours sharing out the window!!
They also love classical especially violin and harp. ABC classical plays for them when I'm out
My cat is currently sitting on the edge of my bed.... watching the rain... she’s our little guardian
Things my cat likes: warmth,my bed, brutally killing bugs and sometimes rats,food, going outside,catnip, yogurt
My cat keeps crawling above my car and then jump in to me then keep eating bugs,lizards and a little rat then he keeps breaking inside my trash😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂and then he keeps jumping like monkey😂😂😂😂and that’s it uhmmm😐
@@Tec_o same
@Toad like cats are really stupid for keeping breaking inside my trash🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣also other things happens
What about games and videos for cats?
Mine likes cream cheese on a spoon!
I have a cat who loves boxes more than he loves me. I even bought an office chair that's in a box. I still haven't assembled it, but he loves sitting on the top of the box.
We introduced a kitten a few years ago, and the kitten was very afraid, and 2 of the other cats weren't being friendly. I had an open box for the box-loving cat to play with, and he and that kitten played with the box for hours.
What my cat loves: Food, Perch, Food, me, food, did I mention food?
Whenever I am gone for at least an hour, I always come back in the house and the first thing I say is, mama missed you all day sweet baby! In my baby voice of course. My two boys love the attention and rub all over as I'm coming in the door. Everything I do is for them so they are happy and living their best lives. They have me well trained and I wouldn't have it any other way. ❤️ 😍 💖
My cats love to listen to stories, especially the ones I write.
mine too
Cute!
I’ve found with my older cat that she really appreciates it when I add a teaspoon or two of water to her food.. I then microwave it for about 15 seconds to take the chill off….She regained her healthy weight again and I believe it really helps with her digestion and kidney health…👀
I'm going through a difficult time n my best friends support n help Me heal. Cats are an amazing species like no other we have much to learn from them. They have so much empathy my Oreo(my favorite shh) knows when I'm sad n need a cuddle before I do. Thanx for these videos they pick up my spirits. Cats rule people drool💚
I love that! Cats rule, people drool! ❤️❤️❤️
This just made me cry. Kitties are such great companions & give us so much love!! 💗💗 I've had pets my whole life and I am going through a hard time right now being recently divorced & losing my house & kitties & puppies...& EVERYTHING to my husband. Long story. Now I'm staying at my mother's house by myself b/c she is sick & not here. Being sad & going through such a big change, pets (companions) make transitioning like that a lot easier. But having no one or anything to take care of or talk to makes everything seem umm, very meaningless & hopeless. Sorry to metaphorically "fall off a cliff" there with my Debbie Downer comment. 😒😪
When I'm sick I'd swear my cat is worried about me. He gets right in my face, kisses me and stays right by my side.
I bought one of those electric water fountains ⛲️ for my Izzy, specifically to help her drink more water since they love fresh, running water. It works wonders! It's annoying changing every day since it's wasting a lot but she is worth everything in the world 🐈⬛❤️❤️
Both of my females drink from a fountain and simply refuse to drink from a bowl of water
@@SuperSaltydog77 remove the fountain and they will use a bowl.

Did I miss anything? lol My only kids are my feline furbabies. :-)
All they wanted was attention like children 😻
and weed
Animals don't have vocabulary, but they can exchange emotions with each other.
Animals need to know what the emotions are, whether it's happiness, sadness, approval, irritation, disapproval and most importantly alarm and fear.
So, animals are instinctively in tune with emotions. They can read human emotions. On the emotional level, they are adult, and smarter than people
give them credit for. I don't know what an adult animal makes of an adult human talking like a baby. Humans seem to like talking baby talk to their pets.
Yeah, you missed that they're not small children. It's a dangerous notion to perpetuate because then we don't afford them the full respect they deserve. They are grown-ass mature adults (unless if it's young and actually a child). They have adult needs, wants, thoughts, and emotions. It's stupid and irresponsible to see them as 'small, helpless children.' Yes, they rely almost entirely on their human companions, but that's because we've chosen that for them. It's our responsibility to understand our companions are adults and will have complex, not always easily understood thoughts, feelings, moods, preferences, etc. Understanding that they are equals and giving them their deserved dignity helps your bond with them. Sure we can dote on them and love and snuggle with them like they're our kids, but we should always afford them the dignity they deserve.

I never said that they are small children, I said they are _like_ small children. I have two feline daughters. Is that a problem?
we had outdoor cats in norway, but they had a barn with hey and horse blankets (made out of thick whool and simular material) where they could sleep, when they got old my father rigged some heat lamps to where they slept and also bought some sheep pelts (with the hair still on them) for them so they could easly keep warm.
Another homophone lol...no, lmao.
Hey? No, that should be hay. And I always assume cat lovers are intelligent. Meet the exceptions

@@alisdairmckenzie Do you feel better now that you caught someone making a mistake and posted an offensive comment? I thought grown men were more intelligent, meet the exception.
That's so sweet of your dad. Those cats have a good life there in the barn.
We too have a cat and it is 6 months old. My cat loves to hear piano music, It loves resting on top of the fridge, he hates taking bath, he nibbles on my palm tree, he loves early morning scene outside windows even before we wake up, he uses his paw to push the sliding window, he loves taking sun bath and chattering his teeth to talk to birds, he comes when called and curls himself in the arms. He watches us while we eat but never puts his paw for food very disciplined , he loves to play with the broom while I sweep. He scratches on our sofa but we have trimmed his nails. Surely he wants only fresh water, a few minutes old water is out right rejected by him. He loves head pats and last he can sense family member is in the lift so he is all ready to welcome him near the main door. Cats are really adorable.
Laser pointers, paper bags, and small plastic trinkets are some of my cats' favourites.
LOL Yup, Laser Pointers should definitely be on this list!!!!! ;)
My male cat is rough in his play by nature but he knows he hurts me when he bites so he’s more gentle with me now than he is in his play with his sister. Apart from being vigorous & overly enthusiastic in his play, he’s the sweetest natured mellow little fellow.
Yup, I'm convinced, I'm *definitely* coming back next time around as a cat in a good home...!
(But it *has* to be a *good* home).
I've known some fat and happy street cats that have a few homes they stop by for love and food.

I have 3 cat trees in front window. Boxes all over. My daughter cat tries anything new for a bed. My boy is extremely shy of anybody but me. Under my bed anyone at the door.

Awwh this is lovely! Cats can be so unique and have their own personalities but there are some absolute staples in what cats enjoy! Great vlog!
Yaaaa
This not a vlog
What's a v-log? Or was that a typo? It's just a video.
Aw
while watching a Bob Dylan video on TV (RUclips), I glanced over at my cat who was totally entranced as she lounged in her chair. She loves music and television, but it's usually the nature shows that she likes best.
A few of my young cats really enjoy the video and song Rolling In The Deep by Adele. A couple of them do not appreciate it as much but are nice about sharing my cell phone videos. Black Horse and a Cherry Tree is my tom kittens favorite so far. Not sure why they seem to prefer what they do but I offer choices and just give them what they like. (The Demon Cat that owns my husband and puts up with me loves Dolly Parton's original version of Jolene. She is one fiery little thing with strong opinions who I would not trade or change for anything. While my old tom was in his last few months she took such care of him even giving him food first and the best sunspot on the bed. He left us on Christmas Eve and she still morns him like I do.)
Cats are such cutie pies 😍
Did you try the Mike Tompkins a cappella version on them?
#6 is way off.
My cat chases us throughout the house... everyday.... we get a workout and so does she. I love her
My cats act like we are actually having a conversation when I talk like they are a human friend rather than my pet. A lot of times I can figure out what they want when I do this.
Feline body language and vocal patterns are definitely learnable!
Cat music! You learn something new everyday! 😅
Gotta love cats!
Hello Lady how’s the weather over there
........My wonderful female (Della) loved several songs but her favorite was
"Into the Mystic" by Van Morrison. It's a lovely song with a great bass running
throughout with water, bells, wind, and foghorns. Her second favorite was
The Eagles a cappella version of "Seven Bridges Road".......She could listen to
them for hours with a serenity unlike any other time. I can't listen to those
songs any more. What an awesome baby she was!......And her favorite food
by far; raw oysters!
So, catnip is essentially feline weed lol
Mine does NOT like catnip, neither the plant version nor the spray
All true for my Tabby girl. She loves harp and water music But
she also loves Willie Nelson . Right down to
purring and head rubbing the speakers or phone.
Her very favorite thing I can say is "Are You Cute" Which elicits
rolling over and waving
paws.
My cat loves: food, treats, belly rubs, head bonks, toys, sunshine, her pet dog, fresh air, naps and me.
The sounds of birds or other cats on my TV really gets my cat's attention.
i once played warzone and my cat tried to catch someone parachuting lmfao😂
@@lilballs9476 My cat tried to catch windshield wipers on my TV screen once.
I like how you designed the gray cat, it makes him look more innocent.
One thing I've noticed that my cat likes is soft music, it can be any soft music, and it'll put her to sleep
my 2 cats spend a lot of time looking out if the window. they love lots and lots of cuddles. they sleep on my bed, they know when I'm going to bed and as I get in bed they eagerly jump on the bed too. one of my cats is food mad. my house is a home because of my beautiful cats.
My cat absolutely loves riding on the dashboard both for the morning sun and the scenery. We live in an RV together and she loves it.
There’s nothing I won’t do to make my cats (and every cat I come across tbh) the happiest and most spoiled pets in the world ❤️😸❤️
My cat loves it when I play my guitar. She always comes running.
Our cat likes my hubby more than me.😂
Haha same here!
It's prob not that he likes your hubby more - it's likely your cat just likes him in a different way. I had to realize that when it seemed as if my cat loved my hubby more. But, I soon concluded that because she is a female, she shows her love for me in a different way. She always does her business in front of me and not my husband. She always goes to sleep in my bed and not his. She nudges my hand when I pet her more than his. About the only thing she does with him more than me is she lays in his lap for a nap. Your cat prob just loves you ik n a different way and she shows it to you the best way she knows how. Please don't be discouraged in any way cause all cats are really individuals. 😻😻😻
😂😂😂
@@curtriceennis2924 thx ,your words actually made me feel better!! 💯
He might feel warmer. Cats are hedonists.
Absolutely True 👍 With all their Toys, they love cardboard boxes, playing , trying to rip them, over the fridge vis nap time, magnets all over the kitchen floor..curling up on my lap , 😀 sometimes on my shoulder.. ohh Their mischief never stops.. As I'm back their LOUD MEEOWS upset the neighbors.. oh well They are my babies and they'll always show affection when I'm.back.. I run around or hide, that's the most precious moments for me.. They catch n then cling on to me... total blisss.Nothing less for them.. nevermind my self!! 😘😘😾😺🥰🥰
I think my cat is one of the few that actually is kinda scared of boxes idk why. Everytime there is a box around she kinda sniffs it but doesn't seem interested. Once I picked her up and put her in the box and she jumped right out. On the other hand she absolutely adores plastic bags, probably because they make more noise ??? Idk but I still adore her❤️❤️
My cat was exactly the same, we thought he was broken lol. He’s become kinda interested in boxes only recently, after we played hide and seek around the large Christmas tree ones that were sitting in the room for a while. Then we got a smaller parcel and we threw a couple cat treats in the empty box, he jumped right in and has loved this box since:)
Our cat does not like boxes or bags at all. He does love his perch on the top of the cat tree as well as the soft cat bed.
Yeah and kitties also love paper bags. It's something for them to hide into playing and because it crinkles. So don't forget paper bags, and if you have like an empty draw on a dresser or an end table leave it open until they like to sleep in there that's always a good spot too
Most cats know much more than we think!!!
Bought many expensive toys for my cat but his absolute favourite is a ping pong ball. 🐾🐾
Makes me think of my little Dexter, little man was such a cuddle bug and I couldn't separate from him if I wanted to, he'd also want me to pick him up and he would wrap his little front legs around my neck and hug me all the time, I miss my baby boy.
Read some off the responses. Amazing the comfort zone Cats give humans in exchange for love , companionship. There are rules and suggestions. Yet, cats adapt to humans, and develop their own unigue patterns. As an artist, when I paint and create, sending out happy energy, my cats love the smells, and often like next to my paint box ( closed), as an association to happy times. 🎨🖌️😍🇩🇰🇺🇸🌅🙏🌷

For a little while I had2 cats that I loved with. All my heart I did everything I could to keep them in my life despite not having the money to give. Them the best and I wasn't in a stable circumstance in life but tried to keep them regardless and sadly they both were taken in life but where j am now even though its still not too stable or ideal there are 2 cats here that remind me or resemble them and I now know I can't take care of a cat right now no matter jhow bad. I want one its best for me not to take one in at the moment. I feel like j
God has reunited me with them this way so I can still see them and know I can't keep them I was devastated when I lost them in life trust me it broke me but t have the cats here in my life give me much joy
My cats don't enjoy their food as much without baby talk. If I don't baby talk them they pause & look at me funny.
Hello Angelica how’s the weather over there
I saw something in Thailand that I've never seen an America. My Thai wife bought a small true bambusoideae bamboo plant which is high in protein and good for cats and her cat goes out each morning and eats the leaves off of that thing for at least 20 minutes. It eats that bamboo like it's a salad.
I got my torty as a rescue, she had got bitten by the owner's dog and need rehousing but fast! She was in constant pain from bladder stones but there was worry she was too weak to survive the surgery. Finally I had it done, for $2000 because no one else would pay for her and she is like a new cat. 14 years old and already trying to jump the fences and run away. Which is what i'd call a mixed blessing but still, the cat's out of pain
Bless your heart for saving her. You are my kind of hero💝
So happy you helped her! 💜💜💜
God bless you! That $2000 was very well spent.
@@joanmcdermott6798 Thank you I appreciate that! The kitty is already 14 years and nobody I know would pay that much to have this surgery done for her. The vet I took her to said give her two weeks and then she should probably be put down! I even had her wee grave dug, but when she came outside and started playing in it this was too much and I found another vet, and this one knew their business. As of new my torty has gone from 4.5 lb to 6 lb and is happier than ever, she is like another cat. It was worth all the money, to save a wee furry life.
My cat built a cardboard box city and rapped it with an old shower curtain. She decorated it with strings of colorful bom boms I bought for her. Every so often she completely destroys it,
The heat one is SO CONTUSIJG TO ME because we found a cat INSIDE OF MY PARENTS CAR AFTER SHE DROVE AROUND TOWN and she wasn’t dead. We kept her btw
Okay you're finally right. Cats love to look out the window.
My cats hate baby talk and often look at me like "Mom, what are you doing?!"
Coral and Ben are scared of that toy that shoves the toy out and pulls it back again.
Our cats love to lay on Daddy's blankie
My kitten looks out of the window from early morning when birds chirp and try to catch them 😸
My cat doesn't do heights well aka climbing, he's more of a "bush dweller".
Hello Amelia how’s the weather over there
I pray I am never considered prey.
Yep, I noticed the misspelled word.
Aunt B
You did GOOD!
.......It's okay! Cats know the difference!!
Cats are very affectionate- not in a gushing manner like dogs, but in subtler ways rooted in trust. If you're kind and loving to a cat, you'll soon come to see that your attention is more important to it than food.
My cats like 70's&80's soft rock. Mr Sr cat loves being sung to to I sing to him. You wouldn't believe how many songs contain love , baby plus all the words my cats know. Each of my cats have their own song. Strawberry has Strawberry Fields by the Beatles and Chance has Chances Are. Arrow has me and my arrow. Ginger has any song with girl in it like the Beatles Girl.
Has anyone had a cat who didn't think getting up at 3AM and going absolutely crazy wasn't the best thing ever?
Very usefull
Thank you! This was very interesting and gave me some good ideas. 👍🏼👍🏼
Kittens nursed every time Wagner's "Forest Murmers" came around on the tape. Every single time
What a heart warming video ❤️
We have 4 cats, 3 sleep on the bed when we sleep and one sleeps on HER climbing / scratching pole. Only the youngest has ever shown any interested in heights and we do have plenty of shelves they could climb on.
Thanks, this is very true! I've had lots of kittens and cats for over my 70 years and they do love "baby talk"! And boxes, high places etc. To me, cats are like a bunch of 2 -4 year olds, they're like toddlers and should be treated like that and protected like little ones! Have lost some to the great outdoors, coyotes even one from a couple of dogs! I was told that sometimes if two big dogs are running loose together in a pack they develop a "Wolf like" instinct since they're related to the wolf and can get that killer instinct and kill smaller cats. They're not called "fur babies" for nothing!
These tips are most important! Thanks very much. God bless
5. things my cats love the most:
1. being held upside down
2.belly rubs
3. Bags
4. My Red Tail Boa...they are besties
5. Not listening to mom..only dad
Glad to know my cat loves me and it’s not just an assumption
You forgot to mention "cleaning" both my cats love when I clean stuff, whether it be swiping/mopping or even cleaning dishes. they just love to stare and watch me clean up their mess.
I guess there are exceptions to the preference for higher voices. My cat of 14 years would hide when children (understandable) or women visited, but when men were around, after a few minutes the cat would come out and go from one to the other for a brief petting, then settle down and listen for hours.
can confirm. cats like babytalk :) my new one starts purring when I say hi to her
My cat loves car rides, anytime I go through a drive through people are always surprised to see her
My crazy cat loves music with lots of bass, so much soon as i turn it on she sits on the sub where all the bass comes from😻she was raised with pit bulls so maybe she is a lil more gangster than most😆
So CUTE !!!!
My ragdoll loves playing fetch, watchin birds, cardboard boxes, killing bugs, stealing my seat, and going outside
To me for a happy cat it’s two things. Preventive maintenance, cats will do what they want so give them the opportunity to stay out of trouble. They don’t respond to yelling or scolding. If they scratch on a couch put up a scratching post there. Etc. prevent bad behavior. Second, cats have a time limit. Learn their personality and don’t force unwanted interactions. When the cat is done let them be done. I have two cats, one I found in a parking lot and the other from a rescue. We don’t deserve such animals, my cats are great. I like these videos cause it provides tips to be better
Any box, regardless of size, is inspected and tried out by our cats. MIne actually sleeps on my bed: in a box that held beverages. There's also one under my bed for when she wants to have privacy. One under my desk where she eats. And a spare for whatever. Two years ago I set one down on the bed as I tore up the plastic that was around it. She was in immediately and fell asleep in a few minutes. How could I deny her that?
Regarding music, she isn't keen on my guitar playing (i sorta lean to the punk rock side) but loves if I noodle around to jazz. Especially early jazz.
Try laying some sheets of tissue paper on the floor. All of my cats love playing in the stuff!
Lmao my cat Hinata climbed some shelves I have just because she really wanted to shred my napkins I placed up there. RIP napkins
I made a Box Castle for my cat with a blanket, play area, and pillow.
Hello Kelly how’s the weather over there
My cat loves playing outside in light rain. He even jumps into the bathtub while water is draining, when the water is around knee deep.
i have a rescue cat, he will sit in the rain, and he looks at me like im retarded
My cat loves loud thunderstorms and rain 🤯 and l mean right across the sky lighting.
My cat likes car rides. He'll sit on my shoulder while I drive and stare out the window
Oh my goodness that is so unusual. Your cat thinks he’s a dog!
You’re so lucky! Mine cries and gets upset when we take short trip to vets in car.
I bet if I took car rides with my cat more often she'd get to that point too. She's been to 2 vet trips (~15 min drive each way.) On the way back home after the first trip she practically broke the pet cage she was in (it was very old anyway) and I was afraid she'd cut herself trying to get out the way she was .... so I let her out and by the time I got back home she had adjusted and was mostly behaving herself. She's 100% an outdoor cat so that surprised me. The 2nd trip a few months later I decided to risk not bringing a cage at all, and she was on my shoulders quite a bit!
Things MY cats like: 1. Fresh Food 2. Hissing at people
#11. High spots.
My cat when he jumps on top of the fridge: 😭😭 I NEED HELP. I CAN'T GET DOWN.
My cats love the music of my harp!!
Hello Charlene how’s the weather over there
Charlene Dunning:Not surprised,it plays such glorious music.
Let us not grow weary of doing good. We will reap a harvest if we don’t give up. 🙏
Wtf are you saying
Hello Pat how’s the weather over there
They love clean fresh warm out the dryer blankets. ❤😁
So do I!
This video reminds me just how madly in love with cats I am.
Scratchy posts are a must with cats.
Absolutely. Either a scratching post or your furniture. Your choice. Cats don’t care. Ha ha
