People, especially Cat Lovers normally tend to humanise their cat’s. behaviour. Like showing you how they love you, being mad at you or misses you? Some cat owners even understand their cat’s internal monologues. How purramazin’ is that!?
CATS.
They’re just like humans! Despite their lazy sleeping habit, they love showing their behaviour too! For example, when they’ve got negative feelings towards you or really hate what you do to them? What leads a cat to think negatively?
Here are the 3 main reasons: Socialisation, Negative Traumatic Experiences and The Process of Learning.
If you haven’t started any socialisation classes with your cat, you need to do so. This improves the cats behaviour. Other than that, your cat might also have problems tolerating with other people. You really don’t want that or your cat might end up getting anxiety or depression. YES! It happens to cats too! NOW, what are the 5 signs to tell your cat hates you?
1. THE CAT HIDES WHEN THEY SEE YOU
When your cat hides, it really means they don’t want you near or close to them. That comes with the bad body posture and lower tail, meaning they’re really not interested to even look. Weowwww. Oh, that’s different from the cats with negative traumatic experiences. They probably have a super bad past experience, so try to take it slow and they’ll love you sooner or later!
2. THE CAT AVOIDS YOU AND SHUNS
You can see that some cats shun on people. Like leaving the room when everyone’s there, feeling unimportant in the family. Awwww.. They do have feelings too. But so do us humans. When a cat avoids you, it really shows it. For example, it will not ask for any affection or play with you. Other than that, they’ll not do eye contact with you or let you pet them. That’s a whole lot of avoiding, don’t you think so? Hmm.
3. THE CAT HISSES, GRUNTS OR YOWLS AT YOU
This indicates discomfort or displeasure, meaning the cat probably think we’re annoying or just hating every single thing we do to them. Yikess! This may take long. This is a way for them to warn us. THAT MEANS STOPPING WHATEVER WE’RE DOING. Other way is by moving its tail as fast or in a high posture and having its ears pulled back. Scary but cute!! So, pay attention on what your cat likes or dislikes! It will definitely improve the bond!
4. THE CAT ATTACKS YOU
Have you ever been attacked by a cat? Like repetitive scratching and attacking. YES. That totally means it hates you! SO, don’t go near. Try to gain trust and calm it down. Don’t get angry or it’ll just make it worse!
5. THE CAT EXHIBITS STRANGE BEHAVIOUR
You notice how a cat that loves you will always come up and rub its face towards you or your leg. When a cat hates you, or starting to, they start acting differently too. It could also mean that the cat’s not feeling well. So without just having the thought of “my cat hates me”, try examine it at the nearest vet for any possible hormonal problems!
