Why the cat does not come to your arms: find out what is hidden behind the unusual behavior

Sometimes a domestic cat prefers to sit in the arms of other household members rather than you.

Your cat's unusual behavior may be related to how it perceives your behavior.

To understand how safe a person is to communicate with, a cat pays attention to several points.

Sight

A close look into the eyes will be a signal to the cat that there is tension or aggression on your part.

Body and movements

If you walk noisily, gesticulate while talking, or suddenly get up from your seat, the cat will be wary of you due to your unpredictability.

Voice and other sounds

Loud sounds of human voices, radio, and television alarm the cat and make it look for a more secluded place than your hands.

Tactile communication

Frequent pestering of a cat with affection may force the pet to refuse communication.

Strong odors

If your hands smell of something unusual for the cat, it will avoid contact with you.
