What does cat sitting on me mean?
They want security. Just like humans, cats feel more secure if they are close to someone else. If you’re a cat, you just can’t get any closer to someone than sitting on top of them. Sitting on you or sitting next to you, their idea of a giant friendly cat, helps them to believe that you’ll scare any predators away.
What to do if you accidentally step on your kitten?
First, take a breath, stay calm, and don’t be too hard on yourself. Calmly check your cat for any obvious injury both visually and by petting them all over. Pay close attention to any changes in behavior (especially changes in how your cat moves) and always consult your veterinarian if you’re ever unsure.
Why is my cat sat?
One of the most common reasons that your cat sits on you is simply for affection. Cats have a reputation for being aloof and unfriendly, but as most cat owners will tell you, this is most often not the case. If your cat feels safe and trusts you, they’ll come and sit on your lap to both give and receive attention.
How do I move on from my cat?
Introduce the cat carrier. Place treats, a favorite blanket, and familiar toys in the carrier to build positive associations with the carrier. Allow your cat to freely enter and leave the carrier whenever they would like in the days and weeks leading up to the move.
