It is widely believed in society that cats love their owners less than dogs. In the article you will learn how cats actually relate to humans.
Attachment Study
According to research on cat attachment to owners, cats show some signs of attachment to humans.
From the point of view of pet owners, cats do not show the same love and affection as dogs. However, this means that, by nature, a cat is a more independent pet.
Cats exhibit different behavior than dogs, but this does not mean that the animal does not like you or is not attached to you.
By nature, cats are solitary hunters who do not always need social groups. Dogs are pack animals by nature.
Cats express their sympathy and affection differently.
However, the cat needs companionship, petting, sharing time and playing with the owner.
Cats distinguish between you and other people, and may show signs of affection: being close to you, slowly blinking, purring, wanting to play with you.
You can watch your pet and note what kind of behavior it shows affection and love for you.
If you notice any signs of a change in the behavior of the animal, such as lethargy, inactivity, long sleep, this is an occasion to contact the veterinary clinic.
