Greetings Family. I have a 4 year old male cat, and lately he seems apathic. He sighs (I don't know if cats sigh but I swear that's how he looks like) and he generally seems sad.
He does not have any activity, he does not play anymore. All he does is sleep, or curl up in loaf and stare at the distance, or stare out the window. He has a favorite toy that he used to play with for 20-30 minutes continuously even when no one else was playing with him but now he barely notices it. Unfortunately I do not own a house with a backyard and he cannot go outside. Is it possible that cats get bored with their monotonous lifestyle and that's why he became depressed?
It is true that I was also busy lately. Could it be that he is feeling lonely? Or that I've abandoned him?
Lately I have been fighting some negative energy and difficult situations and I'm sure he sensed it. Sometimes I had emanated it. Maybe that's why he became isolated? Perhaps that's why he avoids me now. Now he flinches whenever I come close to him although I never hit him and I would never dare to. Is it possible that he may simply not like me :| as a human - my personality I don't know, or that I annoy him with my foolish attempts to connect with him (since I don't really know how to act around him. I try to do something with him but he gets up and leaves. I think I'm not getting my message through to him . He just sits there wondering what I mean, then he gets up and leaves) He doesn't know how to act around me either. Sometimes when each minds their own business and our eyes meet he utters a meow and continues to mind his business. Sometimes when he sees me he poses in front of me and randomly stretches to me. Or sometimes he wants to come to me but midway changes direction and forgets about me.
But we've been living together for almost 4 years now! Shouldn't we know how to act with each other?
Sometimes he comes at me randomly and meows loudly but I don't understand - I give him food, water, treats, I try to pet him but he doesn't let me, I clean his litterbox and still something bothers him
Could it be that he is sick? At the last vet check-up they said he is okay.
Do you think that if I do more activities with him - I saw in other posts that hand-feeding is a good idea, and if I groom him, that he'll get better?
Now he's got a new staring spot. There's a fix spot according to him, on my ceiling, and he sits so much time on furniture and gets as high as to touch the ceiling (he's frustrated he can't get up there) and lashes his tails, and meows at the spot etc. I have helped him several times climb there , he sniffed it but he didn't stop going there.
Could it be that I've sent negative energy to him or said rude things to him (I think they sense the energy even if they don't understand the words)?
He's playing hot and cold with me and I'm confused..
Thank you!
I mean, what do you do with your cats so they are happy and active?
