Cat lovers in the house, I need your advise.

I have a cat that I buy cat food for, but this same cat doesn't seems to be content with only its food anymore and would eventually come to me with a big visible full stomach and still beg for food from me whenever I eat.

It wasn't like this before and it only started recently.

I don't believe in beating up domestic animals, especially cats, but I sometimes find myself fighting over a plate of food with this cat and whenever I try to shout at it, most of the time it would meow back at me instead of being frightened.

I'm worried that one day it's gonna display these same manners towards visitors when I offer them food and I know how a lot of black Africans hate cats and can't stand them.

What can I do to make it stop begging for food whenever I eat?

Feed him well. Na hungry cat.

How does the cat do the begging if I may ask undecided
Re: How Can I Stop My Cat From Begging For Food? by Nobody: 6:37pm On Oct 26, 2022
Thanks for the advice.

I live in South Africa.
Bobbiee:
A friend of mine had a cat. Same issue. The solution is to set your cat feeding seperate from yours, and just lock her out in a room when it's your time to eat or when you have visitors. If your visitors want to see your cat, tell them frankly that your cat will try to get at your food, so they should be ready to share. If they have no problem with it then of course, let the cat loose

I love cats. Do you live in Lagos?
Re: How Can I Stop My Cat From Begging For Food? by SeriouslySense(m): 6:37pm On Oct 26, 2022
Please stop these superstitions.

Africans have lived with cats and they were regarded highly. Dont know where you get these stories from.

onlinestaff2020:


Cats are demonic in nature.
Cats are extra baggages.
Cats are not for Africans.
Cats can infect you with feline viruses.

She would leave her food to come and beg me.

Yes, she only begs me because we're close.
AlphaStorm:
Cats will beg their owners for food for 2 reasons :

1. They are trying to bond with their owners.

2. They aren't satisfied with the quality or quantity of food given to them.

Does it beg for food from you ONLY ??

Nigerians and their ridiculous superstitions, and yet na una do jazz pass.


MatrixReloaded:
Cats are my worst pet because of their evil tendency. Cat can blind your eyes for no reason. One of my neighbours cat always want boiled egg. So anytime I visit with boil egg that's how it will follow me with the hunch back up and down.


Not being superstitious, evil means they can harm with their claws just as they can slice with their fangs just stepping on them but if a dog it will only whine but won't bite.

That a cat left a food doesn't mean it is filled. Give it a smoked fish & see. But if it is actually filled, cat usually goes to a corner & lick their paws & relax.

Yes, i also got used to cats too, they are very smart and have a mind of their own. More independent that dogs.

brandsoncharlie:

Who told you a lot of black Africans hate a lot, travel to neighboring countries like Togo , Ivory Coast, Ghana, they love cats, 5 cats can live with them in their houses, no shaking.
I got used to cat when I went to these countries.
Cats are fearless if you like chase they will meow at you, they go from house to house to eat grin. Don’t forget to be giving it steady fish especially the fried ones grin

Your cat might have health problem.
Take the cat to a vet and run some test.
You should have googled this than bringing it here. Or go to better forum that members cherish cats.

The advantage is for companionship or friendship

Having a good time also makes a person healthy. There are other advantage, especially for people who do not like being alone.

Who told you cats do not care, they have shown tendency to care they are also perceptive to the emotional state of people, just like dogs.


These animals also communicate in their own ways, they have personalities, they are not just sacks of meat cheesy cheesy

I still see Loyalty, Mischievousness, playfulness, anger, Joy, shrewdness in them.




[quote author=Samantha123 post=116890198]I admit that in the past I would sometimes give in to it's begging, but I didn't think it would turn out this way.

I knew it was wrong, but I don't know why I did it and most of the time I like spicy food, which I don't think they're healthy for the cat.[/quote please I find it hard to believe people can love cats. What is their use please? A cat can see someone killing you and ignore and that same your killer would care for that cat. They offer no PROTECTION, they are never contempt, they are slimy and their shit smell is awful. Please I want just one advantage of owing a cat and please do not tell me rats because if rats are in your home then you are a very dirty pig. Please shoot it in the face and get a dog. Thanks

I'm in love with this cat already.
FLYFIRE:
Your cat is showing you love. Hasn't she been bringing in birds & lizards into the house anytime she sneaks out. My son's cat wont eat her food untill someone stands by her while she eats. Sometimes she would prefer your own food to the extent that she eats eba well robbed in soup. I did not like cats until this one came grin grin grin

I don't think I can do that, I'll feel bad afterwards.
sophirebenitez:
Sprinkle water on its face whenever it begs you or tries to grab ur food. It'll run away. After a while it'll understand that beging = getting wet.
Re: How Can I Stop My Cat From Begging For Food? by SeriouslySense(m): 6:52pm On Oct 26, 2022
I have eaten around cats before, and they come to check what i eat, they were curious, and when they saw, its not their type of food, they left me to eat. Besides worm sickness, may just be curiosity.

Samantha123:
We do sometimes eat at the same time, but immidiately she hears the sound of a plate, she'd come running.

Cat and dog always beg for food. They roam at night and that why they end up eating witch
Re: How Can I Stop My Cat From Begging For Food? by UncleAyo: 6:56pm On Oct 26, 2022
Never give it food anytime you're eating. Simple!

Animals learn too. You cat will soon become used to that fact and stop. Don't ease up on the determination not to give it food while you're eating.

I agree smiley smiley They are like a person but not a person ( same behavior as Lions especially female Lions) , they want to be pampered and loved all the time.


grandstar:


If you're not ready to pamper a cat, don't get one. Just be sweet to it. They also feel entitled.

They are neither humans or dogs. So don't expect the same behavior.

Why kill yourself if it goes out to it? If you believe you've fed it well, then it shouldn't bother you.
