Each pet has its own special way of eating.
Some cats sniff the food first and bite only a little, while others, on the contrary, eagerly eat everything that is offered to them.
However, sometimes fluffy creatures can growl while eating.
And there may be several reasons for such behavior of the pet.
Instincts and hunger
Natural instincts influence the behavior of cats. This also applies to growling during eating.
A cat may accompany its meal with such sounds if its hunting instincts are well developed enough.
Another reason for growling can be hunger. Moreover, hungry cats can behave quite aggressively if someone tries to approach their food.
Growling may be due to the animal being afraid that the food may disappear.
Feeling of anxiety
If a cat is often offended or has its food taken away, it may also growl while eating.
This is also due to the fact that the fluffy one does not feel safe.
The cat may be afraid that while it is busy eating, it may be attacked or otherwise harmed.
Therefore, the owner should make sure that the pet does not experience such feelings and can eat calmly.
Earlier we explained why a cat rubs its face against everything.
