Why do cats like to trample on people?
Cats constantly surprise people with their behavior.
That's why many people wonder why fluffy creatures like to trample on people from time to time.
Let's figure out what motivates pets to do this.
Why do cats trample on people?
One of the versions is connected with the instinct of cats, which is instilled in them in infancy.
In order to stimulate milk production, babies knead their mother's belly. That's why this phenomenon is also called "milk step".
The act of kneading a person's belly is associated by a cat with the comfort it received as a child, being close to its mother. This is how the animal expresses its affection and love.
There are also scent glands on the pads of your pet's paws. So when your cat tramples, it leaves its characteristic scent on you.
In addition, by trampling, a cat shows that it lacks human attention. Therefore, if it does this often and persistently, perhaps you should play with your pet more often.
