WHY DO CATS RUN AWAY AND LEAVE HOME?

Jun 2, 2023

Today’s topic is extremely crucial because we take so much care of our felines, but one little mistake can make them run away and leave us.

The first reason your cat may run away is because you aren’t providing them with a partner. They will then try running away because they can hear and smell other cats outside. Remember, cats have a way better sense of smell than humans. 

Secondly, your cat may run away because you take your cats outside all the time, into parks, etc. If you have an indoor cat, keep it indoors because your cat will want to go out all the time. It’ll become a habit.

Another reason your cat may flee is because it’s stressed. Sometimes, your cat may hide in the house because it is troubled. If a guest comes over, some cats get frightened and hide somewhere, e.g. under the fridge, behind the couch, etc. Cats can panic over all sorts of things. For example, it may run away if it sees another animal. Make sure you are aware of hazards around your cat and try to keep them away. 

Lastly, I’d like to address the fact that people think cats are disloyal. This is not the case at all, in my opinion. Obviously, if you don’t provide them with something that they need, don’t expect them to stay. Why shouldn’t it run away if you aren’t taking care of it like you should?

Please take care of your pets!! Some people abandon them, and the poor thing thinks its owners will return and so waits. Make sure you are fulfilling all of your pet’s needs, otherwise, don’t get a pet at all!!
