Cats have a natural instinct to hide when they feel anxious or threatened. They often seek out high places to hide, as these locations provide a clear view of their surroundings, allowing them to monitor potential threats while feeling safe and secure.
It's important for indoor cats to have access to hiding areas that fulfill this need for safety and security. These hiding spots should be located away from people, loud noises, and other animals. If your cat's natural hiding spots, such as on top of the refrigerator, are not safe or accessible, you can provide alternative high locations for them to hide, such as a climbing tower or a closet shelf. This allows your cat to satisfy their instinct to hide in a safe and secure environment.
