Do cats like to be jealous? Cats and dogs are jealous like humans. Most cats like to be jealous. If they find that their owner has touched other cats, they will definitely be unhappy and will eat their owner's jealousy. Cats are indeed jealous. When they have these 5 manifestations, it means they are jealous.

The first manifestation: look at you with dissatisfaction

Look at people first, and the same is true for looking at cats. The cat's eyes can reflect everything about cats. Usually, cats must look at their owners very gently. However, when everyone finds that the cat's eyes are no longer gentle but with a little dissatisfaction, it means that something you did makes the cat unhappy and makes the cat jealous, so it will be like this. If the cat thinks that what you are doing is particularly excessive, it will glar at you fiercely.

The second manifestation: special grievances

It is said that dogs are more like boys, while cats are more like girls. This sentence is true at all. The cat is jealous and looks like a girl. When it hides in a small corner, it feels wronged silently. When the owner comes to comfort it, it will feel even more wronged. Moreover, no matter how the owner comforts it, it will not tell the owner what is wrong with it. In fact, there are few reasons for the cat to be wronged. If the owner had not bullied it and misunderstood it, then it was because it saw that the owner had done something and was jealous of the owner.

The third manifestation: Don’t like to eat

There is another manifestation of cats being jealous, that is, they don’t like to eat. Originally, a cat would pounce on him when he saw food and fill his stomach first. However, when it was jealous of its owner, it would no longer be like this, and instead it would not like to eat. Even if the owner gives it, it doesn’t eat much of what it likes to eat the most. Of course, it may also be because it is uncomfortable, so it doesn’t like to eat. If you find that a cat has this kind of symptoms, it is best to take it to the hospital for a check-up first to rule out the possibility of it getting sick. When you rule out the possibility of it getting sick, you can be sure that it doesn’t like eating because it’s jealous.

The fourth manifestation: Run away from home

The cat will also run away from home. When the cat finds that the owner takes another cat home, it will be very angry and jealous. If the owner does not comfort it, it will really run away from home. Moreover, most cats don’t remember their homes. If they run away from home at all, they may never come back in their lives. Of course, you can find it outside by calling friends, and it should be possible to find it.

The fifth manifestation: the temper becomes irritable

The golden retriever is jealous and can only scream and do nothing else. But cats are different from jealousy. There are many symptoms of cats being jealous. If a cat with a particularly irritable temper is jealous, its temper will become even more irritable. It will fight with others, like a rebellious "high school student".
