According to PDSA Vet Nurse Nina, cats tend to be very independent, especially when compared to other pets like dogs.
She told us that if a cat has access to a cat flap to get outside, this helps stimulate the pet’s sense of independence. Usually, cats sleep through the day, with “bursts of energy in between.”
“Many cats will want the company of their owners too, so avoid leaving your cats alone for long periods to stay in your cat’s good books!” she pointed out that even though cats might be considered to be more solitary creatures, they still prefer to socialize and receive affection from others from time to time. Here is the PDSA’s guide to understanding cat body language. You might find it useful whether you’re already a cat owner or you’re just thinking of getting a new best friend for life.

The vet nurse explained to Bored Panda that owners can’t focus just on a single set of their pets’ needs. For example, cats need not only physical exercise, they need mental stimulation as well.
“Otherwise, they can develop behavioral issues that their humans may find unwelcome. Puzzle feeders help to keep cats occupied at feeding times, and can be used to keep them entertained between meals,” she gave an example of what can help our pets have some fun when we’re at work or running errands.
“Indoor-only cats still need the mental stimulation, so recreate the outside world using cat shelving, vertical cat scratch poles, and hidey-holes so they can have adventures in their home,” the pet health expert explained to us that owners should be willing to put in the effort to give their cats the best possible lives. Love and affection are important, however, there are some more tangible choices that have to be made, too.

“Cats love high-up perches so they can survey their territory and they love toys that they can stalk, pounce and catch. Scratching is a natural behavior and this should be encouraged, just make sure that you provide satisfying and effective posts for your cat—they need to be strong and sturdy enough that your cat can get a good pull on them, otherwise they’ll use your furniture,” Nina detailed what owners should keep in mind when setting up the interactive ‘playground’ for their pets.

The feline behavior specialist continued: “Signs of this would be sleeping stretched out in a more vulnerable position, even exposing their belly as a sign of trust" She added that cats exposing their bellies doesn’t automatically mean that it’s an invitation for people to touch and rub them. Doing so might break the pet’s trust in some cases.
