5 Ways to Make Sure Your Cat Loves You as Much as You
Love Them
When you first bring home your new fuzzy friend, it’s normal to
feel like they don’t quite love you as much as you love them.
Cats are the best. You love your cat, and they love you. But
sometimes as a human it can be hard to know how to show them just how much we
care about them. They're not exactly easy creatures to read, so trying to
figure out what your cat wants can be tricky.
If you've ever wondered how to tell if your cat loves you as much
as you love him or her, look no further! But rest assured, there's a simple way
to make sure that this doesn't happen: just follow these 5 steps and your cat
will be in love with you in no time!
Play with them
Play is a great way to bond with
your cat, and it can also be helpful for keeping them active and healthy.
Playtime can help both you and your cat's health as it gives them an outlet for
their energy, which can be especially important if they're stuck inside all
day.
The best way to play with your
cat is by using toys. You can use any kind of toy that you think will interest
them, but make sure it's safe for both of you. For example, if your cat likes
to jump up high and catch things in the air, look for a toy that has some kind
of string attached so they can practice their hunting skills.
Playtime is an excellent way to
make friends with other people who are around your cat by giving everyone
something fun to do together. It's also a good idea because playing with them
will help keep them from getting bored or depressed when they're home alone
during the day or at night when no humans are awake!
Let them sleep on
you.
You know how cats like to sleep
on warm, soft surfaces? Well, that would be you. You’re a warm and soft
surface! So let them sleep on you—you won’t mind a bit. Your cat will feel safe
and secure on your lap, and she’ll also feel more relaxed being close to the person
who loves her most.
Go ahead and give your cat a good
rub down. They love it when you do this because it feels good to them—not just
because it keeps their fur clean, but because they enjoy the attention. They
will purr if they are happy and love being petted. If you see your cat doing
this, give him some attention! He will enjoy it immensely, and so will you.
Cats are natural cuddlers and
they love to be close to their humans. In fact, some cats will even curl up
next to their owners in the middle of the night and wake them up—even though
they know it will make them get up early for work! If you give your cat
permission to sleep beside you at night, they'll feel safe enough in your
presence that they will be able to rest fully and completely relax. This means
that if you spend time with your cat before bedtime, he or she will associate
those feelings of safety with being near you every time!
Feed them healthy
snacks.
You shouldn't have to bribe your
cat with treats and kitty snacks to get them to be affectionate towards you. If
they're healthy, well-cared for, and happy, chances are they'll want to cuddle
with you all the time on their own accord. But if you're having trouble getting
a little love from your kitty friend despite these factors, try feeding them
some healthy human snacks.
Your food is good for them! That
doesn't mean it's good for you—or that your cat would even like it if he or she
tried it. But if it's something tasty (like peanut butter) and nutritious (like
veggies), then there should be no harm done in giving your cat a taste test.
You might just find out that something as simple as a few green beans can turn
an apathetic little furball into an affectionate lap warmer overnight!
When it comes to your cat's diet,
you should always make sure that you're feeding them the most nutritious food
possible.
But that doesn't mean you can't
sneak in a few treats once in a while!
Cats love snacks just as much as
we do, so make sure to give them something healthy to munch on when you want to
show them how much you care. Here are some of our favorite healthy snacks for
cats:
-Beans and other legumes are a
great source of protein and fiber. They're also one of the only foods that cats
can eat if they have diabetes, so giving your cat green beans or peas as a
treat is actually good for their health too!
-Applesauce is safe for cats to
eat, but make sure it's unsweetened so that it doesn't contain any sugar. Cats
don't need extra sugar in their diet anyway, so this makes them a perfect snack
for those who want something healthy but still tasty.
-Dried fruits, such as
cranberries or raisins, are a great snack for cats. They're high in water
content and fiber, which helps your cat stay hydrated and healthy. Make sure
you give them the unsweetened kind because they don't need any extra sugar in
their diet!
Give your kitty their
own space.
Cats have their own
personalities, just like people. Some cats love to be cuddled and adored, while
others would rather do their own thing and interact on their terms. You know
your cat better than anyone else does—maybe they’re an independent or shy
kitty? If so, then giving them a space of their own will be very much
appreciated by your feline friend. This might mean letting them have their own
room or food bowl, or perhaps even toys in one area of the house that’s
dedicated to them (and only them).
If you want to make sure that
your kitty feels comfortable enough around you that they can relax when being
near you, making sure they have a place where no one else goes is key!
Introduce new stimuli
slowly and at their level.
It's important to introduce new stimuli
slowly and at your cat's level. Cats are creatures of habit and don't like
change (the same way you can't stand those obnoxious neighbors who move in next
door), so start off with something very small before moving onto more
challenging tasks.
For example, if you're trying to
teach your cat to wear clothes or paint its nails, don't throw a whole outfit
onto them immediately! Take things in baby steps: first just place an
unbuttoned shirt over the cat's head, then work up from there until they're
comfortable wearing the whole get-up.
It might take some time for them
to adjust, but remember not to force it—you'll only end up making yourself look
crazy while they cower under a table somewhere wondering what kind of evil
person would try this on their precious furball anyway?
Cats deserve love and
respect, too.
Cats are independent, aloof and
affectionate. They're smart, playful and loyal. But we live in a society where
people often don't treat them with the respect they deserve. If you want to
make sure your cat knows how much you care about them (and vice versa), here
are five ways to do it:
·
Give your
cat plenty of attention when they need it—but not too much when they don't want
it!
·
Understand
that cats have their own schedules and ways of doing things—and try to honor
those as much as possible.
·
Respect your
cat's boundaries; always ask before petting or handling them. Cats deserve this
because being touched by strangers can be scary for them until they get used to
being around people.
Conclusion
With these tips in mind, it's
time for you to go back to your cat and show them how much you care. They'll be
grateful for your effort, because they're cats and they understand the
importance of showing gratitude. The next time you've been gone all day at work
or school, don't worry about what's happening with your kitty friend—just
remember that a little love goes a long way.
You may think that you already
know how to show your cat love, but there are many ways that we can improve our
relationships with them. Whether it’s letting them sleep on your bed every
night or giving them a treat when they come out from under the bed, these tips
will help you be a better cat parent. So grab your furry friend and get ready
for some cuddling!
