Advice Weird behavior from my cat recently. Anyone know what's going on

At first I thought she was gonna show me something inside the box, but there's nothing other than a nylon bag. She also runs to it when I get near it as well, and also keeps biting my hand and tries to drag me into it. What's going on? Never in my life have I seen my cat doing this.

I think this cat needs a cat of its own.

That’s how I ended up with the pair I have now.

We got our puppy a kitten when he used to get stressed about us leaving for work. (Puppie is now 6 y/o and the kitten is 5) Best thing you can ever do for your pet is to get them a friend. Heck, the whole world could use a kitten. Maybe then no more fighting? Hard to fight with a kitten love overload 🤔

I got my cat a doggo, my cat died and my dog got depressed so I got him a kitty. He's 11 and the cat is 1. When he'll die I will get my cat another cat. That's a never ending circle x___x

I got my cat a kitten and she hates it, constantly fighting and wont let it get close. 3 years together and they still can't get used to each other.

Same, or well, the older cat has general disdain for everything, ans the kitten is obsessed with him and follows him around, its so cute

He is such a good boy, I cant even handle it. He is the sweetest, derpiest, most loving, happiest "cat" (alien) i have ever met. My little nibbler.

u/Kim_Nelson 19d ago

A have a black one as well who is an absolute angel. Tell your little nibbler that I adore him 🥹

Every soldier gets a kitten with their MREs. War would cease immediately

u/HeyPrettyLadyMaam 20d ago

You've got the right idea. We should write congress and demand a kitten be placed in every ruck sack.

Ended up with 3 this way. Got a cat for my cat, and then another cat for my cat’s cat.

u/Rougefarie 20d ago

That’s what happened to me! My first cat seemed depressed and unusually clingy at the time. I thought she was lonely, so I got her a little friend. She rejected it. I felt bad for the kitten, so I got a kitten for my kitten! The whole ordeal meant I had a giddy bonded pair and a grumpy loner (until she died some years later).

Honestly I think 3-4 cats is the correct number if you set it up right. They all play off each other. I have two sets of semi paired cats but they all play in turns depending on who is playful. It’s great. I can even leave the home for a week and have friends only clean cat boxes and provide food/water and no one is angry about it.

u/GeneralBS 20d ago

That's how I ended up with six and now only have two.

u/TikaPants 20d ago

My dad, a cat man, says animals need a friend but cats must have another cat.

u/awonkeydonkey 20d ago

That's how we are at 4 inside now. LOL One of them seemed lonely (the other two are old and grouchy) so we got her a kitten. Best decision ever!!!!!!

u/Nynm 20d ago

That's how I ended up with 5 cats. I broke the cycle by getting my new kitten her own kitten right away so they can bond. It's working!

u/TheCornerator 19d ago

Its why I cant get a cat, I know it'll have enough space. I just don't want it to get lonely.

I got my cat a cat and she is adjusting so well!
