Cats may try to scare their owners as a form of play or to get attention. It is a natural behavior for cats to engage in playful activities, which may include trying to startle or surprise their owners.
You can tell a cat is scare because they will scrath / run away if you try to touch them.
You shouldnt want to scare a cat anyway
scare it But don't scare it too bad.
Use food, toys, or something else your cat loves. Don't try to scare him out! Coax him out, lovingly.
no it can not
they put it there to scare you
Sprinklers normally work if a cat doesn't like water but if they do, try to get a sensor that detects movement and releases an alarm that should scare of the cat. Apparently their are alarms that only cat can only hear. I may be wrong but that is my suggestion.
Cause they want to scare you back
Yes AND No. because cats are usually on the 1st floor. and when they are up there they scare the squirrels.
try and scare the life out of you
You try to lure it out with toys or food if you can see it. If you can't get it out, call the cops.
You can try offering the cat some treats or toys to entice it to come to you. Otherwise, respecting the cat's boundaries and waiting for it to feel comfortable approaching you on its own time is also important. Remember to approach slowly and calmly to not scare the cat.
