Do cats get jealous?

2023-05-26 12:45:00 168

Cats don't experience the same emotional jealousy or jealousy that humans do, but they may exhibit some similar behaviors. For example, if a cat notices that its owner is interacting with other animals or paying attention to other things, it may feel ignored or dissatisfied, and thus display impatience, coquettishness, protest, and other behaviors. This behavior may look like jealousy, but is actually just the cat expressing its feelings and needs.


In addition, cats have strong curiosity and desire to explore, and are very sensitive to their owner's behavior and the surrounding environment. Therefore, cats may also display jealous or aggressive behavior in certain situations, such as when they notice that their owner is receiving affection or attention from another animal.


In summary, although cats are not truly jealous, they can display behaviors that resemble jealousy or dissatisfaction, often because they have a strong need and dependence on their owners' attention and interaction.
