Why Cats Keep Checking on Their Owners?

Does your cat frequently check on you? like casually looking around, to make sure you are nearby?
Do they walk in your room, give you a look, and then continue on their way?
If you notice your cat keep an eye on you, it likely indicates that your pet considers you a significant figure.
In this video, we'll explore the common reasons why cats check in on their owners, and what it signifies for you as a caring pet owner.
The first reason cats check on you has to do with their territorial nature.
Being territorial and social animals, cats regularly check their territory for anything out of place and they keep an eye on their family members.
Cats are territorial and social animals. They regularly check their territory for anything out of place and they keep an eye on their family members.
When there’s a strange noise or something loud, they look at their owners to gauge their reactions. If you appear unconcerned, they take it as a signal that everything's normal. But if you're on high alert, they kick into alert mode too. They may even survey the environment for potential threats.
Now, your cat's frequent check-ins might also be a way of making sure you are, still, in fact, you!
They are making sure that everything is fine and that the routine is still the same.
Your pet knows you're the source of all good things-food, shelter, and safety. So when they're checking on you, they are ensuring that you are present to play your role as the great protector. This little check is their way of seeking reassurance that their environment remains stable and secure.
Another reason your cat checks on you is because they want to seek your attention.
They check on you in the hope of receiving positive acknowledgment. Whether they desire playtime, a good petting session, a cozy cuddle, or just a moment of eye contact, your cat wants you to notice them or spend time with them. Some cats even follow you around the house simply because they want to be seen and heard.
Another reason for these check-ins is to ensure your well-being. Cats have a keen sense of smell and are often able to detect changes in their owner's scent when they are sick. They may also pick up on changes in your behavior or body language. While your pet may not understand that you have the flu, they can sense when things are different, especially if you've been in bed or on the couch all day.
When your cat notices something is amiss, they are highly likely to pay you a visit.
Many cats come in closer proximity when their humans are sick or sad. Some even purr and rub themselves more once they sense that their owner is feeling blue.
Believe it or not, cats have even saved lives over the years.
One cat in the US warned her human when he was about to have an epileptic seizure, while another cat in the UK saved his owner’s life by pounding his paws on her chest to wake her up after she suffered a heart attack.
Finally, cats also check on you because they love you. If you have a strong bond with your cat, built over time through love and trust, your pet may check in simply because they care.
It's a heartwarming sign of affection. Your pet is not looking for food. They are not looking for attention. They are just checking in because of the deep connection and affection they have for you.
When your cat chooses to be near you with no obvious strings attached, it means you are succeeding in the art of pet parenting. This indicates that you've established a secure and loving environment for your feline friend.
It's important to note that some cats check in more frequently than others, and their subtle ways of doing so may go unnoticed. On the flip side, some cats may be aloof, detached, or uninterested in engagement due to past trauma or a preference for independence.
Why do cats check on you when you’re asleep?
If your cat checks on you while you are asleep, it is often because they feel safe being around you, and they regard you as a close partner whom they worry about on occasion.
Cats also check on you while you are asleep to ensure your safety.
Many cats are well aware that they, and their humans, are vulnerable when sleeping.
By keeping a watchful eye on you while you sleep, your little tiger is trying to from any potential nighttime threats.
This is akin to how they would protect their fellow feline family members in the wild.
Now that we covered why cats check on you, let’s explore other interesting cat behaviors.

Studies have shown that the vibrations of cat purring also help the healing process if people are sick, and can improve bone density.

[@jaytee2642]

I had a cat who definitely used me as her Safety Gauge. When there would be a loud or unusual sound nearby, she would quickly look at me. I would let her know that everything was ok by slow blinking and softly telling her not to worry and that I wouldn't let anything happen to her. She would relax, slow blink and settle back down to her nap. The fact that she trusted me so completely in every way, was especially meaningful to me, because she was a timid, feral, 4 month old kitten when I got her. She turned out to be my Soul Kitty, and we were blessed with 18 adorable years together. It pained me to think what her life would have been if I hadn't snatched her off the streets.❤

[@johnjettfothergill4231]

How wonderful of you to reassure her like that. And very cool that you took her in, and that she turned out to be such a sweetie. I know you will not soon forget her. ❤

[@kathymcmc]

Too funny, I didn't think to slow blink. Lulu was asleep on my lap and someone set off a firework last night across the street. Lulu growled and raised her head to look at me. I said that it's okay and placed my hand on her back. She went back to sleep.

[@erwintimmerman6466]

In December they set off fireworks (especially loud bangs) for weeks here. The first year I made sure to be around my cat, not reacting AT ALL to these bangs and giving her an assuring little rub when she looked startled. After a few days the fireworks didn't bother her at all anymore either.

My rescue that I found in my yard sick years ago and took into my home and nursed her back to health is my most loving and smart cat I’ve ever had. She never slept next to me in my bed, but was so in tune to my moods and always watched me and wanted to interact with me. I think she knew I rescued her, but she rescued me, more. One day, my mom passed away at the care home she lived in , and I had to go take care of her arrangements right away and returned home drained, very sad, and emotionally spent. I did not cry in front of my cat, and I went to bed early that night. Five minutes later, she came to my bed and curled up next to me and didn’t leave my side all night! She knew I really needed some comforting that night, and it melted my heart! She’s never repeated something like this since. I believe that cats are way more in tune to our hearts and feeling more than most people even realize. She is now 19 and in perfect health for her age. I love her more than words can describe. I’ll always cherish her being there for me that night and every day she’s been with me!

[@gaiathewildanimal2633]

It’s really hard to tell if a cat is checking on you since they may also come to see you for cuddles. 🥰 I got a kitten before she was my family cat and she has black and white fur and it was long. She would come and see me every now and then and would rub up against me and would lick my face. She would also sometimes sit on my lap and would also crawl up me so she could reach my face and lick it. I knew it was pure love as she licked me quite a lot she was a very loving and affectionate cat and I still live with her now. I also have another cat the other cat I own isn’t a family cat because I got that cat on my birthday. He was grey tabby cat and I called him Lopez I had Lopez as a kitten in my old home he could be a bit naughty when he was little as he would go in the floor boards and he even jumped out the window once. I know cats can’t get hurt from heights and that they land on all 4 paws 🐾 but my mum assumed that the window wasn’t really safe for him as she thought it might be a bit too high for him but he was fine. and he also climbed up a tree and couldn’t get down before so we had to get help to get him.,.down we didn’t let him out on his own as a kitten since we thought that he wasn’t old enough and responsible to explore the world on his own yet. We got a harness for him so we could help him explore the out side world safely but my mum said that the lead wasn’t really making any difference. Also we would put a collar on him as a kitten so he wouldn’t get lost since he hadn’t been microchipped yet. The good thing was that the collar had a bell so if he got lost I could find him if he went out by himself. I remember hearing his bell and finding him out side late at night. He would often wake me up at night mewing at me and would keep walking onto my bed. After my dad had died from cancer me and my mum moved in with my step dad and so did Lopez of course he still wasn’t a family cat and was still my cat since like I said I got that cat on.,. my.,. birthday. Lopez is already a grown adult now and has had his microchip done know we thought it was a better option since if a branch grabbed him by the collar his collar could come off too easily. I have to admit that the collar looked a lot more stylish but the microchip definitely worked better for him. I also used to have 2 other house cats when I moved in with my step dad except that those 2 were the family cats we had 2 black and white cats called Noo Noo and Kia. Kia was a female cat who was getting to be really old and Noo Noo was quite young I think when I first met Kia Kia was a lap cat and so was Noo Noo they would sit on my lap. and Noo Noo would lick my finger when I put it near his mouth. In the end Kia ended up passing away because she was really old and Noo Noo was the second one to get old and now he has died as well. I’m only left with my 2 cats now that is Lopez who is my cat and the one with black and white fur now and surprisingly enough she has been given 2 names so we would call her Luna RainBall I called her RainBall and some of my family members would call her Luna. RainBall is now all grown up and has the face of the kitten and would act like a kitten and would misbehave and attack people which she was already a grown up and was too old for this behaviour. She has gotten better though she still attacks my family members every now and then but she’s much better. She’s not a grumpy cat though she’s just really.,.playful.

My cat is with me 24/7. She has been with me for over 11 year. I have Fibromyalgia, chronic pain, chronic migraines, atypical trigeminal neuralgia and many other issues. She knows me so well, and I know her so well. She knows when I'm really having a bad day and stay by my side at all times. I have gone through days that would test the most strongest humans. Kidney stone, gout, these were something I experienced, and were not even close to one of my bad days. Having my cat with me, gives me the strength to push through it all. She is 11 years old now. I have been with her for 99% of her life. This extremely close bond really creates a unique cat. She is a smart cat that is completely aware that a mirror, is just her reflexion. She grew up with a mirror. She knows my routine and will worry when I break routine. Her worrying sound a meow with her mouth closed. She will follow me around the house. I am her world, and she is mine.

Now he is very happy cat and will come and get us to do things like open doors, feed him, pet him or groom, or tidy his litter and then watch as we perform the tasks. He is the sweetest boy and so handsome. He was returned to the shelter twice and was a bit of a basket case but he has blossomed into a very happy kitty. He has become a mommas boy and has proven to be very entertaining. He is also an accomplished mouser. He goes out in the backyard to hunt and always stays in the yard, never wandering. VERY smart and very well behaved. Such an adorable boy.

I have two cats and Duncan is a sweet boy in his own right. Now Sasha is my newest addition to the family and that little girl has literally saved my life. I recently spiraled into some really deep, crushing depression. It got bad and I mean really bad. Sasha was able to pick up on this and she was right there to comfort me. In fact for days after the fact she would go into full blown anxiety mode when I would just leave for work because that was hours of the day she had no idea if I was ok or even coming home.

[@anneglines47]

My cat follows me every where. I love him.

[@draconia1336]

In the summer my cat goes out for over15 hours. When she gets home, I yell at her and tell her to come home every few hours, so that I know she is OK. She does it too 😻😻 As for cats following you to the bathroom, it's the Gremlins, I think cats hates them

[@pyr1017]

I was awakened by my fur baby girl last week in the a.m. hours. I felt something pushing on my right thigh, and I looked up and saw her pushing my thigh with both front paws. When she noticed I was awake, she rushed to my face meowing. She was hungry😊 As I got out the bed, she jumped down and ran to the kitchen to take her place at the table, which is a sign for meal time😊 I fixed her a snack and took it to the bedroom and placed the dish on her food tray. She happily ran from the kitchen behind me and ate her food in the same room we sleep. If I don't take her food to the bedroom, she will sit in the kitchen and call out for me to come to her, "meomy, meomy, meomy!" So, this is why I take her food to the bedroom and put it on her food tray😽😻💙

[@davidquatermass789]

The only point I would argue is that my cats are my owners 😂

[@EricTheOld]

My gray rescue is an attention hog. If I have a visitor, she wants them to pet her. If they don't like cats, they aren't my friends 😤

[@beverlybenson9981]

My cat, Winston, a big orange tabby, stayed with me when I had a bad case of the flu. I didn't know at the time, but my appendix had burst, and two days later, they had to rush me to the hospital. Winston never left my side those 2 days. When I came back home, he stayed with me all the time as I was healing.

It could be an extremely cloudy day, but I still have a shadow. Mr. fluff is always there.

[@clayton56tube]

one of my cats comes when I play the ukulele in bed (which I often do). Not sure why, but the night I captured her I sat with her in the bathroom and played the ukulele for over an hour to calm her down.

[@user-fh2ex6zr7b]

My cat is my best friend and that's why he keeps a check on everything, what a wonderful animal

[@MrGriff305]

They check on you because: 1. they're bored 2. you're amusing 3. they care about you regardless of food 4. you are the food source 😅

[@Kraterlandschaft]

5. You are the food.

thanks, the solid black cat in the beginning looks exactly like our "Tar Kitty"..he is the 1st male cat we owned and is such a blessing, best cat ever (we are in our 70"s)

[@debbiekirk8765]

My 15 year old baby girl has recently discovered that that if she curls up in front of the mirror i often use and is on the comfy couch... All she has to do now and then is open her eyes slightly and she can see me without having to turn her head!

[@blackmoonroze9336]

The only time I heard my cat chattering was when he was trying to catch a moth that was out of reach. He kept chattering and giving me side glances as if trying to give me directions to where the moth was. We hunted the moth together (well I swiped at the moth to get him to Kitty's reach, didn't want to be a better hunter than him) It was really fun!! He's usually my shadow so doesn't really come to check on me, he's usually close to me and if he's away for a while then he just returns, he doesn't check and keeps walking most of the time.

[@yogiperogy]

My mom’s care home had resident cats who wandered freely. Staff told me that one of the clues a resident was going to die soon was that a cat would climb on the bed and snuggle up with the resident. I’ve owned cats my entire adult life and they had better souls than many humans that passed through my life. Far too many humans have no idea what animals are capable of or their emotional capacity and depth of the love they can develop towards us.

[@malubasic2267]

When I thought that we were both asleep, I need to slowly go my way to the comfort room because my Lilly would easily wake up. It is as if he has a 3rd eye for me even while asleep.

[@stacyvolek3418]

I recently lost my sweet baby Aurora after 18 1/2 years together. She was rarely more than an arms length away from me, she slept on me, helped heal 2 broken wrists, 4 broken ankles, and one broken shoulder. She woke me up if she was hungry or out of water. She protected me, even from our 2 male cats we got during Covid, and ran to me if the boys chased her. After she passed the boys, Sebastian and Sinclair started to come out of their shells and have become total love bugs! I thought they just liked my hubby better. lol! They have started taking turns checking on me, or spending days with me, not sure how they have worked that out! I know it will take time for me to completely bond with them, but am enjoying the journey! ❤❤❤

[@sallyspencer5624]

They purr when you sick or down in the dumps because they know it's healing. It has something to do with the pitch and tone. My cats would wake me up in the night because they want to go out side in the nice summery weather.

He also loves greens fresh grown lettuce from our tower garden lol we joke our orange tabby is an omnivore

They will jump into the owner's pants while using the restroom!

My cat alerts to any noise outside without checking with me and then lets me know it’s all good…. Comes when I call too… We got it like that.

[@sickofthissh]

My cat, orange, Ryan rattles the door knob on the bathroom door because I close the door when I enter the bathroom. Oh, he also crys.

[@GenaJohns-kl2ib]

My 🐈 like follow me everywhere go and sleep 💤 with me in bed

[@rowynnecrowley1689]

When I first got him, my cat basically ignored me. He'd come out to eat and poop, then go back to hiding under the bed or in the closet. Suddenly, the first time I got sick around him (I have GERD, so I get sick A LOT, he started letting me hold him for brief periods and is pretty much always within sight. If I get down on his level, it freaks him out, and he doesn't like to be petted or messed with very much, but he almost always wants to sit by me. If he is chilling in another room, he'll come out and follow me whenever I go into the kitchen or bathroom, and he almost always comes when I call him unless he's eating or using his box. He won't lay in the bed with me (I guess he hates sharing), but he always follows me into the room, and stands (lays/sits) guard by the bed while I sleep. He's a good kitty.

[@ViraL_FootprinT.ex.e]

They're always guarding the bathroom door whem im in there. Which i appreciate, but when it comes down to it, i don't see either of them doing too much 🤣😭💀

[@michaelalexander3322]

I had a pair of guard cats from years 2000-2018 they always looked after me especially when I had my epileptic seizures when I still lived in my parents house they would alert my family that I was having a seizure and they would look after me at bedtime and the older one would do the security guard roll after she did her kneading and knocked me out until she would wake me up at 2 a.m by fighting with strays they had maternal instincts and they would look after me and still get worried about me when I would seizure even when they got old I miss both of them so much ❤️

Love your cat intelligence videos! Every cat lover should tune in for support and reinforcement 😸

[@bloomjuliaeslavin525]

Unfortunately I don’t have a cat anymore. My childhood cat had to be put down in April 2015. She was up there in age for a cat though she was about 18 had had her for 17 years and when we got her from the local rescue they said she was about one, so she would’ve been about 18 and she had to start the stuff in the week leading up to it. Sure I’ve suffered a Recents best for me than her, but when she was with us, she did all these things. He legit saved my life one time I had been home sick from school like really sick staying in my bed. My mom was doing some sort Chardon the whole time she would barely leave my bedroom to eat and use her litter box and usually she went outside for balance but she used to lead box that week a lot one day I was so sick my mom was cleaning. She was at my bed and I guess he say had to send something seriously wrong because she ran out my bedroom and kept like meowing at my mom until my mom Stopped I think she’s vacuuming and then somehow luck with your mask get my mom to follow her to my room and then jumped up on my bed and just kept like tapping at my face and chest and my mom look in my mom north that I took a turn first local. He was able to call 911 enough time that they were able to get to Our home in enough time they buy the time to go out there though they like they really does packaged me up in for me to local Children’s Hospital by the time I got there it was it was close I said five more minutes I may have no if you commit at all it was Ruffin I owe it to my burger cup for system that I legit O’Hearn my life. It was new when my depression was bad, she sometimes was the only living being in that house took never cheer me up, and sometimes just her laying on me and purring just make me feel better so I know how much of a blessing a cat can be, and that they do know when things are off the humans And she just have to follow me around. She was created show so-called compared to all other two that we had at the same time. She’s more social than the dog up one time there’s four humans three cats and the dog my parents, me and my brother, her the other two cats and the dog we didn’t have a huge house either so I got crowded but she was always the one right behind me. She was like a little shadow Best for baby I ever had because to me they’re not just passed the fur babies they are your family hopefully someday I’ll be fortunate enough to find a new for baby should’ve never gonna be like my book upstairs one in 1 million by this Sunday, I’ll be lucky enough to be a good pet parent again And I asked to get those calm reactions from my friends cat to my friend. Lily lives three doors down for me on the same floor of our apartment building her cat that falls in did you know me since I’m over my friends apartment frequently enough I’ve even pet sit him for her a handful of times too so, nothing like a cat

[@Katy-ye1zr]

When you are ready another kitty may come and bless you and your home.

[@kevincarlson668]

I could swear my latest rescue (Rotten Rita) can read a clock.Females seem smarter.She's like a nurse(or prison matron)doing her rounds.I could also swear she has precognition and can read minds.Half the time she follows me like a dog.The other half she seems to know where I'm headed beforehand,and I follow her like a dog.

[@lisanidog8178]

I go to the bathroom both of them follow. I sit on the couch watching TV I have two pairs of eyes staring at me before they hop on he couch and one or the other take their lap shifts and of course my boy likes to supervise my cooking. Almost every time I go into the kitchen my two scamper in and it’s not feeding or snack time. They just like to see what I’m going to be doing. And when I wake up in the morning they’re both waiting for me for their breakfast.

[@christheghostwriter]

I've had cats my whole life. My current cat, Nibbler, was a feral, abandoned kitten I found during a rain storm. I caught him and brought him inside. He was wary at first, but once he realized he was safe, he became the most affectionate and vocal kitty I've e ever had. He talks to me all the time, and I've reached the point where I know what he wants. I can tell the difference between his vocalizations for "I want a treat" or "my dish is almost empty" or "I want to be picked up and loved on" When people come over, they always comment on how vocal he is, and whenever I start talking on the phone, he hears my voice and starts chattering away so loudly that the other person on the call can hear him. He's the funniest and sweetest kitty I've ever encountered

[@Goxilla]

They wouldn't check on us if they could open the tuna can themselves. We are just a can-opener to them😂

[@michelelyons9410]

our family cat checks on everybody regularly. At night, he will check out every person in the house, at least twice during the night. Like he's doing regular sentry rounds! We quickly learned to leave inside door open, because if he cannot get in, he will howl and scratch at the door. And if someone is in the bathroom, he will invariably go in with them and watch until they come out safely. We have to assume he is worried about us being in that room with so much water! He even gave a friend of ours a near heart attack, when he stayed overnight. He was sleeping on the couch, and the cat was on the back of the couch glaring down at this stranger. Well our friend woke up just in time to see two huge, yellow eyes staring down at him in the dark room! Our friend screamed and fell off the couch, and chaos ensued. It took us all awhile to determine what had happened. Our cat regularly waits at the front door when he knows one of us is due home.
