CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Why do cats jump on their owners' feet?

What does it mean when a cat pounces on its owner's feet?

Cats pounce on their owners' feet because they regard their owners' feet as imaginary enemies and imagine themselves hunting. Cats have a hunting instinct, and although domestic cats don't have to catch food for themselves nowadays, this instinct has been passed down.

However, when cats pounce on their owners, they usually pay attention to retract their sharp claws to avoid scratching their owners, so there will only be pounce movements, no scratching or biting movements.

What to do if a cat jumps on its owner's feet

If the owner doesn't like the cat doing this, then he can yell when the cat pounces, and the cat will think it hurts him, and then slowly stop doing it. Or after the cat pounces on his legs, the owner can walk away indifferently and ignore the cat completely, so that the cat will feel that it is meaningless.
