Why do cats constantly ask to open the door, but don’t go through it? (6 photos)

Our domestic cats have a lot of strange things. At first human glance, they are absolutely absurd and illogical. That's why they bury food, poke around at five in the morning, rustle bags, sit in boxes and ask to open the door when they actually don't need to go out anywhere? Well, that's nonsense!





But if you look at all this from the side of the cats themselves, the situation becomes quite clear. In our human reasoning, we miss one fact: for cats, the world works completely differently. For them, we are not masters at all, but, at best, pleasant neighbors. And the entire apartment, house and even your cute little garden are all the property of the pet.



Open the door to my house or I'm calling the police.

Like any good owner, the cat carefully monitors his possessions. But how can you check the boundaries and monitor the area when an insurmountable barrier appears in front of you? Exactly, no way! A closed door almost means an attack on the territory and powers of his woolly majesty. That is why pets are calmer when they have constant access to any room and everything can be easily checked.





Horizontal hello.

You also have no right to do any interesting things without the knowledge of the cat! If an animal hears a strange sound behind closed doors, it will immediately rush to check: what is being done on its territory? And if the pet does not have access to the scene of events, this will upset him. What if you eat delicious food there without it?!



Natasha, I hear the packaging of something tasty rustling there. Open up in a good way, or I won’t answer for myself!

Another reason why a cat may demand to open all the doors in the room is your attention. Woolly creatures are very smart, and they remember the logical chain “yell at the door - the owner will pay attention to you” quite quickly. So get up, open the door, scratch the cat behind the ear and don’t be angry that he didn’t use the open door again - that’s their nature!



Master, will you finish your toilet chores soon? If not, then soon not only here, but also in your slippers will stink!

Considering the characteristics of their pets, people use tricks just to avoid listening to constant screams. Some people cut special cat windows into the doors, others place basins of water in front of the doors, and still others go even further.



Such windows are a joy for both owners and cats.

There are companies that make special door latches that allow you to adjust the degree of opening. You can configure it so that only a cat fits into the opening, and, for example, a child or dog cannot pass through. As a result, the cat is happy with the constantly open door, and you sit calmly on the sofa. Only who knows what else the animal will learn to manipulate...
