Cats are complicated creatures.
Even though I have been a cat parent for many years, I still have a lot to learn about this species. You can never fully know your cat. When you think you are finally getting the hang of it, your cat will pull a 180 on you and you will be back to square one. One moment they are hyper, playful and cuddling with you, and the next, they will scratch your face off if you try to touch them. Guessing a cat’s mood is nothing less than playing Russian roulette. You just never know what is going on in their minds. They are always up to no good. Plotting something when we have no idea about it. We have no answers or reasons for their shenanigans. Cat brains will always remain a mystery for us.
However, there are some things about cats that are very well known. Even though they may not show it, cats really love attention. They are desperate for it. And when you don’t give it to them, they will do all sorts of antics just to get your attention. If you need to see some examples, scroll down below to see 18 cats dying for attention:

9. Homework? What homework?
Have you ever spent the entire day trying to play with your cat and they just aren’t interested? But as soon as you start doing something else, they suddenly want to play? My cat does that all the time. He comes and sits on the laptop’s keyboard when I give up on him and shift my focus to my work. This proves that all they really care about is the attention you give them. Scroll down below for more attention-seeking cats:
