Why Do Cats Eat Plants, and Should I Be Worried?

Mammal. House cats are descendents of wild cats originally from Africa and southwestern Asia. They have excellent senses of smell and hearing. By rotating their ears, cats can quickly find the source of a sound. They can even hear ultrasonic noises made by some rodents. Their whiskers are highly sensitive to touch and help cats figure out if they can fit into a tight spot. Their purr is heard when a cat is content but also sometimes when angry or upset. They also communicate with odors, rubbing their scent glands against people and objects to mark them.

Cats are territorial, and coming into a new home leaves them feeling really uneasy. There’s all that unexplored space, and who knows what may lurk there. Do him a favor and provide a small area to call his own for the first few days or weeks. A bathroom or laundry room works well. Furnish the room with cat amenities, such as food, water and a litter box. You’ll want to spend time with your cat, so make sure there’s a comfortable place for you to sit as well.
