If you have a cat at home, it has surely happened to you that on more than one occasion this adorable pet interrupts or interferes in your sessions. gaming, perhaps climbing on top of your keyboard or locking your screen. Well, beyond what you might think, there is actually a “scientific” explanation for why your cat behaves this way.
Sally Chamberlain, specialist in the behavior of cats, was interviewed by the portal Gaming Bible, and thanks to this, we know exactly why these animals enjoy teasing you while you play.
“Cats normally bond with their owners and want to be where they are and it is common for them to seek to interfere with what they are doing to get their attention. Electronic equipment is always hot, and keyboards and controls can seem like cool things to a cat, especially when combined with the movements of the hands and fingers of the owners who are using them.
There is a possibility that the owner is doing something and this leads them to believe that it is good and that it gives you some kind of reward. The cat wants to participate to see if it can also get some benefit from it. “
So there you have it, the only thing your cat wants is to be closer to you, so maybe it’s time to think twice when you run them from your room, or from the place where you usually spend your time enjoying video games.
Editor’s note: Although having your cats around is always a good thing, there are times when it is frustrating for them to stand in front of the screen and not let you see. Surely it has also happened to you that your cat intrudes on your gaming sessions, causing you to lose a game or perhaps a boss fight.
