Hi All,
So my little boy seemed okay when I got home from a weekend away. My neighbours came twice a day to feed and play with him so I knew he was in good hands. Last night when I came home he seemed happy enough, but today (the next day) I came home from work, only to find that he had left a little smelly "present" for me under my work table. He has NEVER done this before.
I was just curious about any insight into how cat's react this way emotionally. As a human, I interpreted this behaviour as him being mad at me, but do cats really think that way??
I didn't want to be mad at him because it seemed he knew he had done something wrong anyway...
Still- it seemed very calculated on his behalf. And I do want to be able to go away for a weekend without this happening!
Any thoughts on this behaviour?
I really love my cat!!!! I was sad to leave him for the weekend.
Thanks!!
