the dependent cat

Employees of their tutor exist cats very, to who she will follow throughout to feel calm and accompanied, she will be always demanding attention and affection, that raises it, will rise the skirt, that they give him to eat and all these attitudes accompany it with maullido.

Many cases of obesity happen in cats with these characteristics of dependency, because whenever the tutor arrives at his house or he approaches the place where the animal has its containers of food and water, he ask for attention and are understood because it is hungry, then uses food to him and the cat interprets that they are taken care of it and ingests its food, that perhaps does not need, this custom favors a greater food ingestion than it is often translated in obesity, in these cases where it is known that the animal already ate its ration and has this attitude to request, is due to make a mímica with a pair of food granites accompanied by caresses and will notice with surprise, that the animal is only satisfied to that ?ration?.

It is probable that a dependent cat undergoes much the solitude when separates of its tutor and it causes anxiety and stress to him, a good solution is to provide companía to him of another feline and to stimulate it to that he is more independent, favoring the possibility that the outside explores and knows other cats, a small cat can help to that a dependent cat more is opened to other animals and does not depend as much on its owners, the more young is the easy puppy the more will be accepted by the adult.
