Although dealing with a cat on a regular basis often causes anxiety for many cat owners, most people don’t realize that cats can feel anxiety as well. Cats can experience anxiety when they owners leave them (our don’t stay away long enough) to go to work.
Cats can feel anxiety due to early trauma, health, or developmental issues. If you notice your cat’s behavior changing, it could be experiencing anxiety, or it could just be messing with your head to see what you might do next.
