Do cats remember if you snap at them once? (yelling and stuff)
Do cats remember if you snap at them once? (yelling and stuff)
I do a lot of research regarding cats . My current cat I have had her for 13 years . Cats are sensitive creatures try to avoid any harshness towards them attempt being gentle as best as possible. Adult cats have the intelligence of a two year old child overall.
I think even if the kitty remembers, they will be able to forgive. It doesn’t sound like you’ve done enough for the cat to be fearful of you forever. Just give some extra love and affection and I’m sure itll be fine :)
I never yelled at my cat, but today I had to get it out of the house since its and outdoors cat. I was really in a hurry and he would hide and run away from me. When I yelled at him and chased him I think he looked scared. do cats remember this forever?
@ocdnomoree Remember that you are obviously much bigger than your cat and even if you didn’t yell, it could still be frightened by a large figure running at them. As for them remembering, I doubt they remember that as they don’t have the cognitive ability to understand holding grudges. Yelling once might have startled it in the moment but nothing more. I’ve had my fair share of moments like that and I regret it too. I’ve also stepped on my cats tail on accident in the dark. However, my cat doesn’t understand what accidents are, just that I stepped on it. You learn to let that go. We love our furry animals :)
later today I found him dead at the side of the road... now he's dead cause of me
now he's buried, I hope he rests well : (
What’s good times to feed your cat? And how many times? I’m getting a cat and was wondering to be safe, the cat I’m planning to get is 3-4 months old and is a female (she’s spayed) ANY cat tips is needed! I want to be the best I can be!
my cat was smelling my other cat's bottom so to get him away i like quick "slapped" with the dorsal of the hand on his face and i got afraid that i did too hard so i compulsively did it again with similar strenght that i used to check if he was hurt and i regret it, like it wasn't a hard slap meant to hurt, but i did that impulsively and maybe i exceeded a bit over the limit in which it doesn't hurt. like he definetely reacted but i don't know if he was hurt, like he reacted in the moment but nothiny else, and he's lovey dovey. i dont think he was hurt but i feel bad. because if i did it once as a mistake i shouldn't have done the same thing again. i feel like an abuser. there are many things that are happening to me and im getting overwhelmed and i dont know how much longer i can hold on. because one thing i can't do is to forgive myself over mistakes.
I don’t know why but today I feel so incredibly angry right now and I was so frustrated with everything including my two dogs. I didn’t hurt them or hit them or anything but I was particularly annoyed and angry when they were trying to get presumably a bunny or a raccoon from underneath the shed, so I had to pull my small dog away when he wouldn’t budge away from the shed and i couldn’t pick him up because I was not close enough. I feel bad because I know I love my dogs but oh my god I just get so annoyed with them and on top of them everything else I have to just shut down all day and the things I don’t understand. I feel like I’m going insane. I don’t want my dogs to think I don’t love them because i was angry and annoyed at them. I know they’re just animals and they love me and I love them. I want them to know I’m sorry for even getting mad. I wish I didn’t feel so angry and yet so disconnected at the same time. I’m terrified I’m an evil person or that I don’t love my pets or something. I started to hit myself and punch myself because I do that when I get over the edge angry. I don’t know why I feel angry. It’s a mix of anger and emptiness and I don’t want either of them especially towards my dogs.
