🪑 Scratching Furniture
What you see:
Your cat constantly claws at sofas, curtains, or walls—especially when you’re not home.
What’s really happening:
Scratching isn’t just about sharpening claws. It’s a natural stress relief mechanism and a way to release pent-up energy.
The long-term impact:
If cats don’t have an outlet for their hunting or playful instincts, they’ll redirect that energy to your belongings—and that behavior becomes harder to unlearn over time.
🍽️ Skipping Meals
What you see:
Your cat walks away from their bowl, eats less than usual, or becomes picky with food.
What’s really happening:
Cats thrive on routine, stimulation, and attention. When bored or emotionally unstimulated, they may lose appetite—just like humans do under stress.
The long-term impact:
Poor eating habits can lead to weight loss, digestive issues, or even immune system weakening.
💤 Excessive Sleeping
What you see:
Your cat sleeps most of the day, hardly moves, and shows little excitement—even for toys.
What’s really happening:
Yes, cats sleep a lot—but too much sleep is often a sign of boredom or depression, especially in indoor cats without mental stimulation.
The long-term impact:
Lack of activity can contribute to obesity, reduced muscle tone, and a decline in emotional well-being.
😿 Mild Depression
What you see:
Your cat seems withdrawn, avoids interaction, hides often, or doesn’t play like they used to.
What’s really happening:
Just like people, cats can experience emotional lows. Lack of play, challenge, or bonding time can lead to depressive behavior.
The long-term impact:
Unaddressed, it can affect your cat’s overall health, lower their immunity, and reduce their quality of life.
The Solution? Interactive Play
Interactive toys aren’t just about fun—they’re emotional enrichment and daily therapy for your cat.
Help your cat stay active, curious, and happy—every single day
