They don't. In regards to a house cat that begs affection from its "owner", consider sensory deprivation. In the wild, and house cats are not far descended from their wilder counterparts, cats would cover miles of territory and their day would be filled with hunting, chasing, climbing, territory displays, interactions with other animals, etc. In a house, all of that natural behavior is taken away. Imagine your life if you had to live the rest of it ONLY in your house. You would go insane. And so do cats if they don't get enough stimulation. Their need for affection and play (you remember that 4 am gallop through every room in the house at full speed?) is because their natural behaviors have been taken away from them.
