14 Signs Your Cat Hates You

[@Smirtley]

My cat: sleeps with me, purrs when I pet him, plays with me Me: omg what if my cat does not like me Edit: I’m famous 🥳

[@abfmkarin]

I hope its not a free roaming cat.If it is have yourself checked for toxoplasmosis gondii

[@abfmkarin]

Only saying because you say you sleep with your cat. Cats lick their anus than lick their fur. Their saliva is so toxic that as soon as a wild animal as so much as a tiny scratch they will die in 48 hours due the bacteria a cat harvests. So unless you have a 100% indoor or catio cat- you run a high risk to be infected.

My cat is obsessed with me. When I get home from work she legit follows me EVERYWHERE! 😂❤️ Even if she’s sleeping next to me on the couch and I get up for two seconds to get a drink, she’ll wake up and follow me into the kitchen. She sits in between the curtains the whole time I shower, and never allows me to get up because she’s constantly on my lap, arms or legs. Sleeps cuddled in my arms every night. She is my best friend. Look forward to coming home to her every single day! Love you Emmy! ❤️

If you ever experience this, you can just sit near them and wait. May take several times to several weeks. But this worked for me with 2 cats saved from death stations. If you add talking with them and repeatably hold your hand towards them, so they can smell your hand if they want, it will speed the process up.

[@penguinlovers772official4]

[@cherrybutterflyproductions6795]

Point to add; most cats understand these behaviors by instinct and can recognize them in humans as well as other cats, so you can flip some of these around to communicate with your cat to a limited degree. A good way to tell your cat that you trust them (and let them know that it's ok for them to trust you) is to look at them while they look at you and then slowly blink, and possibly even turn your attention away from them. This tells them that you don't consider them to be a threat and don't have hostile intent.

I learnt the slow blink from a cat. I used to do it back before I ever heard about them liking it 😂

[@lethe.archive]

i feel like a lot of this is situational. some cats have play aggression and might not have been around their littermates long enough to learn bite inhibition. the main sign a cat is uncomfortable around you is aggressive vocalization or hiding.

[@Pythonaria]

One of my cats was dumped in the snow. He was about 9 weeks old. I fostered him then adopted him. When I go to bed, he will sit and groom me. While grooming he will nibble at me - the same way he does when he grooms himself or one of our other cats. He seems to get a bit carried away and the nibbles become bites. Not painful bites but I do feel them. We don't know how long he was out in the snow for but given he was about 9 weeks old, it was obvious he'd been taken away from his mother and siblings far too young. We got him just before Christmas 3 years ago. The following summer, one of our local rescues got a female, very pregnant cat in. She was identical to my cat and it was obvious they were siblings so some callous person dumped the two kittens to fend for themselves. The cat gave birth to 5 healthy kittens while she was in rescue and I'm happy to say all found good homes - and all were neutered and spayed. She was found close to where my cat was found so I think they were bred by someone who lives in the neighbourhood then dumped because they didn't sell to make money for Christmas. My boy is a much loved member of my family and shame on whoever dumped him and his sister.

[@metalklown]

Exactly. Like the ears down thing is honestly not always accurate. Mine does it constantly and seriously will follow me to stores for ten blocks and wait for me then follow me home. She also won't stop cuddling and sleeping on my chest. Like constantly. She's weirdly in love lol.

[@retrogamer2503]

Mine does hide from me a lot, and tries to avoid getting picked up, but at the same time, will start purring if you pet her for a minute or two.

[@Pythonaria]

@@metalklown Otto, the one who was found in the snow, I'll be bringing his favourite toy out this week - our 7ft Christmas tree. He's a big cat but somehow manages to climb to the top, knock the star off but has only once knocked the tree over. He'll knock the star off nearly every day until I take the tree down again. His partner in crime, Kira (also a rescue) knocks the baubles off and runs away with them. Last year I managed to take a quick photo of the tree before the cats set about wrecking it (again). Less than 2 minutes 🤣

[@Pythonaria]

@@retrogamer2503 We have one like that. She lived rough for at least 4 years and it took her a long time to trust us. She's quite elderly, maybe about 15/16 now and she will come and sit on my lap or my son's lap but it's on her terms only.

[@r.j.powers381]

My cat was 8 when I got her from the SPCA. I know at that age several things come into play: they have a defined personality, will have defined habits, will assess the situation and pretty much make the best of this new life. My responsibility is good food, clean water, clean litter box, clean home, and providing a safe environment. While my cat is not a cuddler she likes to rub her head on my belly. First day she came home she showed me her belly after a couple of hours. It will be 1 year on January 23, 2024. We are doing fine.

If you mean dressing them up and doing little cat weddings and whatnot, then yes I agree with you. On the other hand, if you mean trying to understand them emotionally and respect their boundaries, then you should definitely treat them like they are people.

Lil tip if y’all want a cat when you already have a dog: Don’t unless your dog is calm around other pets, search for cats who were fostered when they were very small by people with dogs, since it’s way harder to get an adult cat used to dogs.

[@summerbummerr678]

I would usually agree but I have two cats and my mom recently moved in with me & brought her puppy. Neither cat has been around dogs in their life. It’s not even been a few months and their relationships are decent. One plays with him constantly and the other tolerates him. He’s a puppy so he’s high energy and very in their face. It definitely differs on the animal though, I don’t think you specifically need a cat that’s been around dogs, or a dog that’s been around cats. If the dog has history of cat aggression it’s already a no no, but other than that I feel like if you give it time and patience and the right introduction you’ll be all good? No animal cozies up to a new atmosphere/addition immediately, regardless.

[@callous_cloud4780]

@@summerbummerr678 that’s true! It’s pretty common that cats who haven’t been around dogs yet will tolerate or play with them (take my first foster cat for example) but if you want the highest chances of getting them to get along I’d definetely search for a cat who you know tolerates dogs

[@StarSong936]

IDK, I've had mixed signals from cats laying on their back. What usually happens to me, if I reach out, it they will grab my hand in their claws, and start licking me to death. I also had one cat that would sit on the floor in front of me, then here pupils would get really big (attack mode anyone?) Then she would launch herself off the floor onto my chest. After that, she would scramble over the back of the couch and race into the kitchen. She expected me to follow her, and if I didn't she would come back and bite my wrist. There was only one time I got injured, and that was by accident. She slipped going over the back of the couch and caught my arm with her back claws trying to keep from falling. We still played tag over the back of a chair with blood dripping down my arm. Yes, she was using me for hunting practice. And no, her bites never were hard enough to break my skin. Her most usual position was sleeping on my scanner, on my face, or on the couch next to me while I played video games. Also, she would go out in the morning when I went to work, and meet me at my front door when I came home from work. One of her favorite things to do was to steel the eggs from the sandwiches my room mate was making. He complained about how she always stole his food, but never mine. I told him, that's because I feed her the same thing I'm eating, so she knows what it is. Also, I kept watch for her antics, while he turned his back on her. Her name was StarFire. Another cat I had got pregnant. A couple weeks before she was due, we went on a tour of my entire house with her exploring every nook and cranny looking for a spot to have her kittens. She eventually chose a box in my bedroom closet. I cleared out all the junk I had there, lined it with 2 hand towels, and she took another look and decided that was her spot. I told my room mate to never shut my door. He didn't listen. When I came home from work about 2 weeks after this she was frantic. I looked at my door, and saw it was closed. I yelled at my room mate saying the cat was due right now, and you shut my door. Her nesting box is there. He looked at me and said "You can't possibly know that!" I said "Watch!" and opened my door. She went racing for the box and started having her kittens. I opened up a can of cat food and put it in the box with her so she would not have to move. About 2 hours later, I was petting the new born kittens. My room mate still could not believe that the cat told me what was going on, even though he had seen it. Her name was Sparkles. Hope you enjoyed this.

She was never neglected, teased or abused.....at least by me. She hated my ex much more. But, when she met my husband, she made it a point to show me that she preferred him. Oh well, one of my two cats now is definitely my kitty. She picked me by climbing up my arm and perching on my shoulder when I was choosing a kitten from the litter. She's been my baby ever since. My other cat prefers my husband, but he likes all of us.

[@l.c.7455]

I know the feeling... I've always wanted to have a cat but my parents weren't too fond about the ideia.. Eventually they changed their minds and we got a kitten, and surprisingly she prefers my dad or my mom and most of the time ignores me even tho I'm the one feeding and petting her all day xD But that's ok I still love her anyways...

[@magnumlex4294]

I enjoy watching videos related to cats, my baby passed away 4 years ago so I been through owning a cat for 23 years (her age).. I never looked at these types of videos while having my angel so its interesting to understand more on what she was feeling all those years based on tendencies. I am dissapointed in myself for not being around much in her last few years, when she needed someone the most.. However, I could never understand why my cat hated my dad so much, he didn't have to do anything to make her that way but from first eyesight she was scared for life.. I can't wrap my head around it to this day... I feared my dad back in the day too but could she have sensed that meeting us both basically on the same day as a kitten?

[@DemoCATicMAN]

Yes, cats are very perceptive. I had a cat that always knew if I was upset about anything, he would immediately be by my side if I came into the house feeling angry or upset about something, and if I was swearing, he would swat me a few times...really, it was the coolist thing. I had a lot of respect for him, we had a great friendship.

[@talesfromthetrip]

My cat doesn't do any of this stuff, but when I got him at the shelter he was super anxious and still is. He didn't play with the other cats and always wanted to go hide in the corner. They even told me I can't take him out because he wasn't going to come up to me. It took him about 2-3 months to actually come out of hiding for him to trust me. I would go to wherever he was hiding and pet him so softly for hours. He would get up and start walking around in circles almost investigating me and the situation. After a while, he finally came out of hiding. 2 years later he meows like crazy when I get home and just in general. (He never meowed at the beginning) The only thing he does on this list is bite me, but it only happens when he's laying on me when I'm sleeping and I decide to pet him. I looked it up and it said sometimes cats just don't want to be pet, so whenever I pet him and he starts biting, I stop petting. You have to respect these little creatures, they're so adorable and you want them to love you as much as you love them.

After staying in my home for 2 years, my cat still gets nervous from time to time, always run away whenever I tried to reach him. There are a few spots in home he would feel comfortable to be pet, and would actively approach me or my family members when he feels hungry. Never asked for hugs, and you couldn't hug him for too long. I still don't know if my cat hates me or not, but me and my family is still putting all our love into him. Maybe he was just born that way (a stray cat kinda kidnapped by me), but we have the patience to show him our love.

[@cjbird7121]

What if your cat “hates”you? If you adopt a cat who has not been well socialized and they exhibit these behaviors, you just need to exhibit a lot of patience & kindness. Talk to the cat in a calm voice regularly. Sit near them with out invading their space place a super delicious treat in between you & cat, be chill when/if kitty takes the food. If cat doesn’t come take the treat move treat closer to kitty and yourself further away. Sometimes just sit there doing your work, read, whatever, so kitty can observe you and get used to your natural behaviors. Using a toy that keeps a safe distance between you and the cat can help build trust with younger cats & kittens (from the cats pov). Listening to a cats signals & respecting their boundaries goes a long way when building a relationship with your cat (and humans too lol). Often older cats who have had bad experiences with humans or other animals may only be able to trust you to a certain point. Please don’t take that personally, be happy that they trust you enough to come as far as they have.

I remember I adopted 2 cats, female and male, from a friend a few years ago. They were ridden with fleas, but were the cutest things. I cleaned them, got them checked out, etc. The female was very loving. Took easily to anybody that came over. The male was the same but he did not like me at all. He never bit me or anything, but he made sure to never let me touch him and always ran away when I came around him. I kid you not, it took him a whole 2 flipping years before he got comfortable with me. One day he jumped up on the back of my couch and just started playing with my head and started licking me. I didn't know what to do as he never did anything "touching" to me. So I let him do what he wanted and ever since, he loves to lay on my lap and play with me. I never known any pet to be so distant for so long, when you always treated him nicely. Just glad he came around.

I have thin one cat who gets spooked incredibly easily, but she is always happy to see us (unless you move too quick, then she runs) and loves snacks from the breakfast table and demands her pets regularly. But she is super nervous, has been the last 12 years. Than again, sometimes just the noise of heavyer rain on the roof (no storm, mind you) will send her hiding and crying, so I guess it ist just how she is. When she is not scared though, she is a lovely, cuddly, sweet girl.

you can tell a lot about a person whether cats like them or not :) they like gentle souls and can read people very easily. my cat is obsessed with me & follows me everywhere I go. my boyfriend and I got her together when she was a kitten, but for some reason she just chose me as her favorite and became attached. she doesn’t like being picked up, she’s very sassy and everything has to be on her own time. she likes sitting on my chest when i’m laying down, but she will only do it if SHE walks up to me and decided to do it. if I pick her up & try to put her on my chest she will run off, and then come back 5 mins later and sit on my chest, because it was on “her own time” lmfao. she’s such a dork & I love her so much. her name is KeKe & she’s a long haired siberian cat

My cat will hide when strangers come over but she has never hissed, but, or scratched me. When I adopted my second cat I was a little scared. She was an adult cat and I thought maybe she would be like those stereotypical cats that hate the human race. She’s not at all! She’s also a sweetheart and loves to be pet. She’s also VERY vocal. Way more than my first cat. My first cat will lay on me, cuddle, lick me, and even lay her head down on my head when we go to bed. Even drools because of how content she is. My new cat hasn’t really gotten to the point of cuddles. She loves pets and will lay down close by me but nerves lays on me or anything. Maybe soon since it’s only been a few months.

As a sweet little baby Gordo always wanted to nurse while his 5 baby sisters wanted to explore the house and their surroundings. I ultimately think Gordo associated food and his sweet pudgy kitten belly with love and affection. Plus his long soft fur literally feels like he never lost his baby kitten fur. He has slimmed down since then and he is more long instead of fat. But since he is a small cat I often refer t6 him as my sweet baby Gordo.
