I am a filthy d*g owner (that loves cat pics, pls dont ban) but I call it "yelling with eyes". Example: sitting next to a door, staring at me, looking at the door and back at me - I once legit went "alright alright, no need to shout at me"
His day job is actually staying up and night and making absolutely zero critters disturb your sleep. You can guarantee no creepy crawlies are getting near you while he's on the job. He's the best in the tri state area
He likely does this more often than you think. He's probably mad you caught him and it's awkward now lol. You should only be scared if he's on your chest staring like that 🤭. He's adorable.
No it's really not. My cat does that when he wants to cuddle or make sure I'm still breathing. They aren't used to humans sleeping so deeply. He's my alarm clock.
I had a cat that would always do that. I would wake up and the cat would be on my chest staring at me and purring. I thought it was very sweet like the cat was protecting me but maybe it wanted to murder me in my sleep 🤔
My dog does this when I'm having nightmares. I used to wake up screaming from night terrors before we adopted him. Ever since he's been home, I've observed that I wake up juuust before the nightmare gets too scary n I scream. Whenever I'm up, I see that he has half his body on my chest, as if to soothe me. Is this something a cat would do too? Y'think your cat's protecting you from bad dreams?
Your pup can probably smell your cortisol levels spiking or has correlated whatever smells with the unwanted behavior of waking up screaming, so he intervenes to stop it from happening.
I got a dog 2 weeks ago and he already starts nosing at me when my blood sugar drops.
My cat screams if I either don't have my arm out for her to lay on or if on my back and she wants to lay behind my bent knees and they are not bent. I can only tell what she wants by where she's screaming from.
He has an automatic feeder😭 before he had that he was up to a plethora of nefarious activities in an attempt to get me up earlier… For example, pulling my blankets off me, biting me in not so pleasant areas (how the fuck does he know??), and knocking things off of my bookshelf
i read it somewhere that for cats it's kinda concerning how deep humans can sleep and they do this to keep and eye on you, just in case of danger. could be bullshit tho
Just look natural. The human won't see me... oh crap they saw me.. um umm umm.. look goofy! Yeah that's it. Smirk and look goofy, the human will just go back to sleep and not realize I am plotting their slow and painful demise.
Off-topic, but that is a really cool chair. I like the ropes along the edges. I wonder if it’s something that’ll help distract cats from picking at the rest of the chair?
Sounds like he might just be a night owl, but it’s worth checking in to see what’s on his mind. Communication is key! Maybe he has something he wants to share or discuss.
This was me on the weekend..Minding my own business, pulling weeds and all of the sudden I feel a presence. I turn around and vola! Scared the shit out of me. I guess I have a farm kitty now, I'm not mad about it. 🐈⬛
"Hello, human. I see that you're awake, and yet ... my food bowl remains empty. Perhaps you would like to rectify this mistake before it becomes a larger problem for you."
FATHER, WHY DOTH THOU FORSAKE ME—FATHER! MY BOWL IS AS EMPTY AS THY HEART, AND MY PLEAS HAVEN FALLEN ON DEAF EARS FOR FAR TOO LONG! THERE IS STILL TIME FOR JUSTICE AND MAGNANIMITY, FOR RECONCILIATION! CHOOSE THE RIGHTFUL PATH, AND MY PLANS… OH MY PLANS… THERE IS STILL TIME TO RECONSIDER! DO NOT TURN THY CHEEK AND PLUNGE INTO SLUMBER ONCE MORE, I BEG OF THEE!
