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 : (
I wanna cry, when I was a kid,like a toddler. 4-6 maybe. I used to do horrible things to my cat, I choked it twice.my bdother did too if I remember right, but still. Ik this isn’t false memory. I’m 100% sure I ddi this as a kid. But now looking back at it I’m like wtf??? But I’m scared because whenever I see animals hurt now or accidentally hurt my animal that thing pops up in my head again and I feel weird. I can’t explain the feeling but it bothers me so bad. I want to cry. I don’t like this, i rlly feel like I’m a bad person. Idek if this is ocd. What if I genuinely have mental problems???
I know this might be bad but I used to have some serious cuteness aggression with my cat and I used to like be a little too much with my cat like tap her head repeatedly and sometimes lightly hit her. I would also kind of annoy her a lot when she was trying to rest. I never did anything out of malice. I just have issues with cuteness and I know that’s not an excuse. I just feel really bad now.. I don’t think she’s ever like been hurt or anything, just annoyed and aggravated. Do I deserve bad things now?
was hugging my cat and she got annoyed and meowed and i got sad and thought how could anyone hurt any animals then i start getting thoughts like u want to hurt one u want to really hurt one even ur own cats and it made me scared but i have little anxiety it made me sad tho. when i was little i had kicked my dog and that came up in my memories and now im scared i will hurt my pets. when i was younger i was weird and i have memories spaced out of me doing weird/bad stuff that i would never do now but it makes my ocd worse. I hate this :(
