Cat Behavior Issues

Cat behavior issues can be a bit unsettling for their owners. There are always important reasons why your cat changes its behavior.

Aggressive behavior and indiscriminate urinating can be a sign that your cat is feeling insecure about its environment and possibly the onslaught of an illness.Give thought to whether there are other cats or threats to your pet and attempt to remove them.
