All owners noticed that the laptop is one of the favorite places for cats. In the article, we will tell you why cats like a laptop so much and how to wean a pet to interfere with work or rest.
Why do cats lie near the laptop
This moment may be due to the fact that your cat simply enjoys spending time with you. Or the animal intends to get your attention.
However, there is also a biological reason for this behavior - comfort.
The fact is that a laptop for a cat is a thermoneutral zone in which there is no need to specifically generate heat to keep warm.
Cats are very fond of warmth, so they often sit on radiators, carpets, the rays of the sun from the window, and even laptops.
How to wean a cat off a laptop
Distract the animal
Entertain her with battery operated toys or interactive toys with treats inside.
This will give you some time to work in peace.
Set up a warm seating area
Create something warm to provide the cat elsewhere.
For example, make a heated bed or just a comfortable place to relax.
Ignore the animal
When a cat sits next to you during work, do not stroke it or pick it up.
So the pet will understand that you are busy and will not get used to the attention at the laptop.
Paying attention to the cat next to the laptop reinforces its behavior and interest.
