Our fur companions are driving us nuts and making us run to our computers with twitchy fingers to ask why is my cat doing this and why the hell are they doing that? In the meantime our cats are relaxing in their pods from a distance wondering what all the fuss is about. So… what were the top 5 why is my cat google searches of 2017?
Why is my cat meowing?
Mmmm. Let me see. I’ve no idea!!! But if it’s not a health issue (check with your vet if the crying is out of the ordinary) I would hazard a guess your little minx wants something from you and whatever that something is, it leads to the most important thing ATTENTION! Cats mainly meow at humans and have learnt that cute meows lead to getting whatever their hearts desire. it is VERY annoying
Why is my cat sneezing?
If your fur muffin is sneezing a lot it could be a sign of infection, especially if the eyes or nose are runny so best get your cat down to the vet for a check up and to give you peace of mind. Your vet will be able to advise what the next steps are including whether antibiotics are needed. Or, it could be that your cat has been sniffing in a corner of the room never dusted after seeing a spider go there! Hope it’s the latter which is easily solved. Dust more!
Why is my cat throwing up?
Why is my cat drooling?
Why is my cat crying?
I am assuming crying meaning meowing and not tears like above!!? It is hard to guess what your cat could be crying about? Was dinner 5 minutes late or it’s heated pad not at the right temperature? Getting serious though. If a cat is howling or crying out, seemingly in a distressed way, then it is probably feeling pain and your vet should be called straight away. A cat, un-neutered, will also cry out seeking females and warning males.
So, there you have it. The Top 5 Why is my cat… Google searches of 2017.
Our cats are driving us mad and they love it!!!
