On a quiet afternoon, the sun shines through the windows in the cosy cottage, and a lazy cat is curled up on the sofa enjoying a leisurely time. Suddenly, it opened its crystal clear eyes and looked out the window, as if looking for something. In fact, the cat is silently missing its owner, and these performances are the best proof of this.
1. Calling frequently
Cats sometimes make gentle meows that seem to call out the name of their owners. When a cat misses you, it will bark at home, hoping to get your attention. It's not just because the cat wants to play or is hungry, it's because it misses you.
2. Patrol the house
The cat will walk around the house as if looking for your tracks. It will sniff in every room, as if it can smell you. When your cat misses you, it will pay special attention to your belongings, such as your shoes, clothes, etc., which may still have your scent on them.
3. Particularly clingy
Cats can be very clingy at times, they will follow you all the time, and they will even rub your legs. This is because the cat wants to get your attention in this way and let you know that it is missing you. At the same time, cats will also use this clingy way to comfort themselves and make themselves feel at ease.
Fourth, sleep time is reduced
If you notice that your cat is sleeping less, it is likely that it is missing you. The cat will always be waiting at the door when you are not at home, waiting for your return. Due to being overly excited and expectant, cats may become a little insomnia, so sleep time will be reduced accordingly.
5. Gifts for you
Cats sometimes bring you "gifts" such as mice, birds, or insects. These "gifts" may be given to you by your cat as a thank you for your parenting. However, when the cat misses you, it will also give these "gifts" as a feeling of missing its owner.
6. Stare at the window in a daze
If you notice that your cat is constantly staring at the window in a daze, then it's most likely because it's missing you. Outside the window, there may be a long-awaited sight of a cat – a butterfly in flight, a bird passing by, or a pedestrian in the distance. The cat will silently observe all this, looking forward to your return.
When your cat has all of the above, it is a sign that it is missing you deeply. As an owner, you should always pay attention to the cat's dynamic and emotional needs, and give them enough love and companionship. Only in this way will the bond between you and the cat be deeper, and you will spend warm and beautiful times together.
