Where do cats sleep?

It's normal for cats to hide. They do hide well too and could be within two feet of you, but you don't see them. Cats graze with their food and to some degree are solitary animals and enjoy being alone even though they may be friendly, cuddle and play with their owners. Cats also don't take well to change. Example: having some work done on your kitchen and everything is upside down. Other cats may be very curious and actually in the way. If your cat is frightened and hides away even from you then take time out every single day to hold your cat, but just for a few seconds and let them know you will release them without a struggle if they so choose to get away from you. Eventually they will enjoy the human contact. When they are around you talk to them. Cats are highly intelligent animals. Cats are individuals like people and some cats will be curious, open and friendly and want to see who the guests are in your home or what is going on, while other cats scurry away to a safe place. This does not mean there is anything wrong with your cat.
