Signs Your Cat is Bored
Some signs of boredom in cats are fairly obvious (knocking everything off your shelves) and some are much harder to read. But either way, their quality of life is at stake! In this video I break down the most common signs of cat boredom and more importantly, what you can do to break up the monotony and spice up their 9 lives! Your cat will thank you!

My baby boy, Pepper, of 15 years just passed away 10 days ago, but his favorite game was hide and seek. After having 30 cats throughout my life (mostly outdoor rescues) he was the only one who played that game. I hid around the door and peeked my head out and meow, then he would run up and I'd say "rarrr". He would then run away to hide again (not afraid, just re-setting) then waiting for me to jump behind a different wall and the game would continue. The absolute best pet, ever! I miss him so much. I see him and hear him, but he isn't there. He was my child as I cannot have children and I am so lost without him.

Hopefully you're going to get another kitty (or two) soon. If you got two kitties, your days would be so full of "kitty mischief" you'd hardly have time to think about Pepper.. And you'd laugh a whole lot too! Do it soon.

My cat and I literally both snack out of boredom and if it's safe to share and in moderation I share my "boredom snacks" with him, like my chicken wings. I have boneless bites and pull the meat from the middle with no bread out of a few for him and we just sit and eat chicken, or he fights the bird that likes to smash into our shop window repeatedly, and I egg him on and we'll both watch our own "tv" or play our own game essentially, or he and I cuddle when he's bored he'll come sleep by me and I'll pet him. We also play with a string I found that is technically supposed to be to measure pipes (they tied it up so I got him a long stick) He's not much of a chaser he just likes to fight things. Or occasionally since we're both kinda paranoid, at night we'll go play the "what was that noise" game and patrol the place where he'll follow me and I'll walk around the shop with the pepperspray in hand to make sure we're safe :P That one's not actually a mutual like fun activity we do when he or I are bored, we're just both anxious wrecks. though that last one is probably even further proof as to how much like us cats are. He gets just as worried by noises at night as me.

Just wait till your furbaby decides to get your attention, I just hope that tugging on a mouth full of your skin doesn't startle you into getting tooth marks on your arm. My Wally has taken to doing that, and if i don't pay him enough attention for right then he will do it again. All the while he will purr if i give him head-rubs.

"Critter" (my rescued 3 legged girl) instinctively knows when I'm really ticked n upset. Her favorite distraction, which is hilarious, is to be across the room, stare until I look at her then she turns Sideways, arches her back, tail straight up then makes 3 huge jumps at me! Gets me laughing every time. She did her job, made Mom feel better. She has several distractions depending upon how stressed I am. Amazing how tuned in they are!

I generally try not to give mine boring, mundane or typical names! As such I have, or have had cats called Quetzalcoatl aka Scootle, Tyrannosaurus Alan, Cupboard, Salem's Shadow, Ninja, Wobble, Little-Bit later aka Tripod (for obv, reasons), Dim-wit, Frodo and Pretty/Ugly, to name a few! :D

My boy is a rescue and has 3 legs but does everything his cat friend do. He does get out of breath by the time he's through playing. He's my world and I think he understands most of what I say. He doesn't wander off the porch when we sit out. He seems content to watch the wildlife go about their day. One thing he does every evening is catch a cricket to play with under my wheelchair! I guess he wants me to see he's having fun.

In our family home, playtime is fun for the whole family. Our cat loves it, and we spend quality time as a family (she entertains us always). When people come over, she chooses her own chair in the living room and watches each person talk. Always hoping the strangers will think she’s cute and pet her (which they usually do). I don’t know what we did to deserve our little angel. But man am I grateful for her.

She also has a meow for when it’s time for “brushes” and she, no joke, will go into the bathroom where the acoustics are louder so not even headphones will drown out it. She will sit on the counter, staring at herself in the mirror while meowing until you get up and do what she wishes. She wants her brushes only in the bathroom. On the bed? Oh no no, she’ll attack the brush. ONLY THE BATHROOM on her counter throne as she stares at the beauty of herself while you tend to her. 😂 she’s one of a kind.

You are spot on, I've noticed that cats are like children. They need stimulation for healthy growth and maturity. My cats are 95 percent outside barn cats. They come in at their discretion and leave the same way. They get attention and they actually knock on the door. They want out they go to the door and look at you to open it. Cats are very intelligent and very good at taking care of you by hunting and protecting your property from other animals. If you let them work they are happy. Cats are very good workers that keep pests and intruders away day and night. Great video and very truthful.

Also noteworthy: Take an empty 10-40lb litter bag, open both ends, fold the edge back a little: instant tunnel! The younger kittens love this.

As long as I'm busy in the house, my cat is totally entertained. She loves just watching me do stuff, but afterwards, I'll do something that gets her some exercise. Sometimes when everything is done and I'm just watching TV, she'll sit and meow at me, and I know she's saying, "Come on, you must have something to do!".

Very late to the party but your videos have been a godsend, Jackson. I have always been a fan of yours because I worked in an animal shelter during my entire teenage years and even though I didn't own a cat back then during those years (mom is very allergic to cats), I always appreciated them and loved learning more about them. Now I am 32 and the proud owner of a beautiful stray male that I named Morgan (at the time of naming, I didn't know how to tell if he was a male or female because he'd never show his butt to me). Your tips have turned this extremely scared stray who would bolt at any moments notice to one of my best friends! He appeared on my porch February 1st and in the span of 3 weeks, will now sit in my lap and let me pet him. Thank you so much for helping me understand cats better and to be able to bond with mine better.

We adopted a cat who over grooms. The shelter vet thought he was allergic so he's on hypoallergenic food and an anxiety med. He is pretty chill and not hiding. We took him to a vet after we adopted him and the vet said we could try weaning him off the meds. We made a mistake and tried a new wet food as he wasn't eating the wet food we were given from the shelter. He enjoyed it, but poor fella bit and scratched himself all night. We will ask the vet if we can give him an antihistamine if he gets really itchy. We suspect his litter irritates his feet too as he's been licking his paws alot. On the hunt for a hypoallergenic litter too.

Then I got sepsis in my knee, and disapeared to the hospital for seven weeks. Now I move only from the bed to the bathroom, and disapear to the hospital once a week. Sooo, now our darling boy attacks the mail, eat cardboard, destroy the walls, attacks our feet at night, or just treat us to a few hours of sing-along (we've learned the lyrics by now). It will be many, many weeks (quoting the surgeon) before I can walk again - on a straight road. Why are there no professional cat walkers? P.S.

As u found out they are just as expensive, worthy of ur time and so much more, the same as ur dog. To all of you who r encouraging her to reconsider just bc we have cats, she’s making a better choice than to dive into adopting a cat and then realizing their needs r just as complex as her dogs. It’s better she understands this now than have a problem cat later bc she wasn’t ready for the type of commitment cats deserve.💕🐾( btw, I am a cat “parent” to 2 wonderful cats that r now seniors. I’ve had them since they were born and they r now 15 years old.) So, yes, I think she’s being smart about her decision to not have a cat now.

Like, kitty, I dun care about the pen, have at it. And if that doesn't work she'll go to sleep. Of course, it doesn't that often, especially since we started taking her out in a harness.

@@deekdouglas3055 Absolutely! But, I trained my cat indoors with the harness first, to make sure that she was confident and comfortable before taking her outside. Last thing you'd want is a protesting cat slipping out of the harness. I think Jackson has a video on harness training, check it out =)

@@TintinSilver Thank you so much, I had no idea that was a thing. Looking up the video now. It's an awesome idea. Even taking her to my cousins to catsit which is only a 2min walk away she could walk to hers rather than be in her carrier which she tolerates but can tell she's not really fond of.

Same :-( I got a new Maine Coon so he would have a friend. She's been here 3 weeks now and they get along great, but they aren't constantly playing (they are the same age). I think they have different energy levels and are still "learning" how to play with each other. I hope so anyways.

For a couple days now, my cat has periodically meowed and coming looking for me. I would get up to see if she might lead me somewhere (litter box, food dish, the window, etc.), but she never would, so I was baffled. Tonight, right before seeing this video in my feed, I tried sitting on the floor next to her and just "being" with her, and she started purring in loaf position. Then, she stole my chair from my bedroom desk. I know by now that she loves the cushion as much as I do, so I put that chair (with her in it) in front of the window next to my desk and I brought out a spare folding chair for myself at said desk. I can say that this is the first time I think I've understood what she wanted, and I'm glad I know a little more about the boredom signs going forward!

Hi Jackson, I used to play with my two cats with a laser once a day (at night before their dinner) and took your advice and now play three times a day and they responded well to this. They love this new routine during the day.

Sometime ago I picked up a small top. It has red and blue lights that are activated by the centrifugal force of spinning. My little cat Gumdrop is facinated by this flying saucer looking thing that lights up and slowly moves around on it's own. It's very fun to watch her because she seems to be afraid to get too close, so she'll sit on the table and pounce on it from there. Or if she's on the floor when you spin it, she leaps over it and onto the table. Sometimes she'll just sit and watch it spin all hunched and ready to pounce. She's so darn cute.

She gets at least one hour playtime from 9pm - 10pm every night (her time not mine!) Then she comes over for a back brush and treatsys. We have done this since she was a kitten. Love mags

Margaret Kerr wow that’s a Long playtime, my cat an indoor and outdoor cat plays just up to 1 to 5 minutes than he lies on the floor and doesn‘t move anymore and he is out of breath after some minutes playing. But Im got told that cats that can go outside doesn’t want to play that often, because they have outside so much so play with and I too play with hin outside in the garden with sticks and he loves that he loves that but even there not for a long time. He is 9 Years old and I got him when he was 7 Years. He just meows on the window if he wants to go outside or sometimes tries so wake me up in the morning if I am sleeping for to long like until 12 o clock or something. 😂 And for some reason he is super scared of feather toys, he uses a toy stick with stings and he loves Baldrian cushions, so I buy him every month a new Baldrian cushion, with this thing he can play alone very good. Only a few times he brought me the play cat teaser, if he wanting to play long with it, just wanting me moving it, without any movement for him, but that’s sometime I don‘t want to do for an hour, if he doesn‘t want to hunt it and just want to look. 😂🐈💖

I think it's important for owners to understand something with cats. You are essentially the leader of the pride. How you behave is how they will learn to act. If you played with your kitten all the time and your adult cat. And suddenly stop playing they will act out. . I only casually and randomly play with my cats. And they are the sweetest, most chill cats. And I've got a brand new kitten and a 1 year old. . I want to add. I give them ATTENTION everyday though. Usually in the form of multiple massages petting sessions during the day.

My struggle is even when I recognize a lot of these traits in one of our cats in particular, I can't seem to ever figure out what he wants to do. I'll try to play with him and he either doesn't seem to care or just walks away. It seems like he just wants me to sit on the floor instead of a chair sometimes. It's just hard to redirect him when he starts stalking another cat or just generally being difficult.

OMG! Same here… I’ve tried and tried to entertain my male cat. He shows many of these boredom signs, but never shows more than a few seconds of interest in anything I try to play with him. I’ve tried prey=play, and he simply doesn’t sustain interest. My cats have a zillion toys, scratchers everywhere, cat shelves, etc. I make box/tent cities in the living room floor, I put tape on carpet to make a ‘box’. I have perches in several windows… nothing seems to satisfy him and as a result he harasses my female cat. He is super clingy, especially with my husband. Also, he recently started over-grooming. Vet gave me some ‘probiotic’ powder that was supposed to help anxiety, and it wasn’t effective. He doesn’t like bird/squirrel videos… Uggghhhhhh… what else can I do for him???

@@rhondadebell5943 Something that recently worked for my cat is letting him out on the back porch, so he can look out the big windows and explore. You could also get a toilet paper roll and fold up the ends so theres barely an opening, and fill it with treats. My cats will chase that thing around the house, so its something to entertain them for awhile. You could also try moving things around. Like putting their cat tree in a different part of the house, or even a different part of the same room. Something to make everything look "new and interesting". If that doesnt work, i think your cat is just an annoying jerk like mine.
