Pets have been known to be affectionate and loyal companions, but they can also show a funny and sometimes unexpected side to their personalities. One of the most common traits pets display is jealousy. Whether it’s a new pet or a new human friend, jealousy can manifest in various hilarious ways. From giving the cold shoulder to throwing tantrums, pets can be quite possessive.
One of the funniest ways pets show their jealousy is by giving their owners silent treatment. They will ignore their owner’s attempts to get their attention and sometimes even avoid being in the same room as them. This behavior can be particularly amusing when the owner brings a new pet home. The first pet may act sulky and ignore its owner for days or even weeks, as if to say, “I don’t need you anymore.” Another way pets show jealousy is by trying to push their way into the middle of any interaction between their owner and another pet or person. They may demand attention by sitting on their owner’s lap, nudging their hand, or blocking their view, making it clear that they won’t be sharing their owner’s affection. Some pets go as far as acting out, such as stealing or hiding the other pet’s toys or treats. They may even urinate on their owner’s belongings as a way of marking their territory.
Today, we are going to honor this factor of jealousy in pets by looking at some pictures of them being openly jealous and not caring one bit about what others would think. These images are extremely hilarious and you will absolutely enjoy them.
