You might have been wondering, “Why did my cat stop sleeping with me?” You’re not the only one. Many cats drop off the bed without notice. This may seem crazy to you but cats and humans need to be together to keep their bond strong. Cats sleep next to us because they want to snuggle, and we need our company while we sleep. But sometimes our cats just don’t want to be touched.
Rethinking your relationship to your cat is the first step. Shuga isn’t being stubborn – she’s just being a cat! Your cat is a choice-maker and will choose where she sleeps. Forcing her to sleep on your bed won’t make her happy. You’ll be rewarded for allowing your cat to be her own person and will be able to bond with her more.
If your cat isn’t sleeping with you anymore, it may be because it feels threatened or uncomfortable with you. Give your cat a place in the room where it’s comfortable, or put down a cat bed. Remember, you’re not threatening your cat, and you’ll likely be fine. Just be sure not to make a fuss, and don’t get upset. If your cat does start sleeping with you again, it’s likely that your cat has found a new place to sleep.
Talking to your cat about why she isn’t sleeping with you is a good idea. Talk to your cat if you are getting upset. You may be surprised at how responsive she is to your efforts. Cats are sensitive animals, and you need to make sure she feels comfortable. If she doesn’t feel comfortable, she might avoid the same place where she used to sleep.
Your cat may not be afraid of you. But it may be scared of strangers. It is natural for cats to be cautious around strangers, and sleeping on us provides extra protection and security. In fact, they can even feel safer on our bodies when we sleep with them. They also seek out our company because it makes us feel safe. If this happens to you, your cat may be in danger. You may need to rethink your relationship.
Another problem cats may have is temperature. Cats are social creatures and tend to use their mother’s pillow as a pillow. But if your cat is the only one in your household, it may be trying to find a way to sleep on your chest instead. Cats are territorial and may even mark your body with pheromones to defend their territory. So, if you find your cat sleeping with you a bit too warm or too cold, try a cooling fan.
