5 signs that your cat is missing you: perky behaviour hides a proud but feeling heart

We are sure that every owner knows the tight feeling in the stomach when they confirm the reservation from the accommodation they have chosen for their vacation. At that moment, it becomes certain that they will be "forced" to leave their pet behind for a short time. But how do cats experience the absence of their owner?

If we would ask them, they would probably answer with a shrug of their shoulders: at most that the absence of an owner would be strange only because of the force of habit. But we already know them like the back of our hands, and we know that a sensitive soul hides behind the sometimes perky behavior. In the sweet joy of being reunited after being away, these are some signs that indicates cats miss their owners.

1. They act as if they don’t know you

When you get home you can’t wait to hug and caress your pet, but it pulls away from you and you swear it is even grimaces, it surely means that your little furry friend resents you for leaving it alone and forcing it to feel the so unworthy feeling for cats, the lack.

It does everything it can to make you feel that it doesn’t need you. It hides, walks past you, or stares from a distance with a judgmental expression on its face. How long this punishment lasts depends on your kitty’s personality. It could be a few minutes or even hours. Leave it alone, let it make the first move, there’s no need for it to destroy its honor even more than that.

2. If cats miss their owners hey rub against them to mark them with their scent

This moment has a very important role, because it has to “wash off” that foreign and repulsive holiday smell from you. It was not allowed to snuggle with you until it freed you from the smell of freedom. From the freedom you spent without it.

3. It sticks to you like Velcro

Then, of course, there are also types of cats who are not afraid to show their tender side. They can only think that if they had cared more about you and been more attentive, you wouldn’t have had to look for happiness in a foreign land.

If your cat is so brave that it dares to show its feelings by being close, don’t worry about unpacking and the shower will be waiting for you. Hug your pet and snuggle for a while on the sofa. Our most precious treasure is being able to experience the beauty of special moments that arise spontaneously.

4. The apartment echoes with purrs

Purring can express a wide range of emotions from happiness to fear. If it is accompanied by stretching, it means that the kitty is satisfied. Yes, it is happy because you’re finally back from that lame vacation and you can see what you’ve been missing. “If you had stayed, you would have had a concert like this every day. After this, you’ll think twice about leaving next time, won’t you? Well, come a little closer, let me knead on your knees a bit!”

5. If your pet gets sick

This is the masterful thrust into the owner’s heart. If cats are stressed and nervous, they may even be sick. So that separation anxiety does not poison the time spent apart more than necessary, it is worth preparing in advance with more special toys, climbing trees and a cat sitter who is not only responsible for feeding.
