Why do cats like to bite people’s hair? There are two main reasons: one is that cats like to touch and play, and human hair is soft and smooth, which attracts them; the other is that cats like their own fragrance very much. Bitting their hair can leave their own scent in their hair, making them feel safe and protected.
1. Curious
Cats are very curious and full of desire to explore everything. For example, if there is a sound or a mosquito flying, they will catch up with them curiously. Therefore, cats like to bite people's hair, and may also be curious about their hair, so they will also grab and bite them just like seeing other curious things. This cannot be changed. Every cat is like this. The owner should not be consciously changing the cat's curiosity habits, otherwise it is likely to cause the cat to feel depressed and other conditions.
2. Like the smell on hair. Cats are very sensitive to smells. So if a cat comes to bite the hair when a person washes his hair, it may be like the smell of shampoo or conditioner on his owner's head. At this time, the owner should pay attention to the choice of shampoo, because some hair care products are harmful to cats, such as products containing citrus fruit ingredients should be avoided.
3. Express love
Cats express love by combing their hair, so cats may also bite their hair to help their owners comb their hair. This is an expression of emotion, which means that the cat recognizes and is close to the owner.
