Cats often dislike forced interactions and physical touch, so respect their personal space and avoid tight hugs or restraints.

Sudden and loud noises
Their sensitive hearing makes them prone to stress from loud noises, so be mindful of slamming doors or using noisy appliances.
3
Changes in surroundings
Cats find changes unsettling, so introduce new situations, people, or objects gradually and provide a safe retreat.
4
Small feeding bowls
Small bowls can hinder their food access and lead to food contamination of their whiskers, causing discomfort. Opt for shallow large bowls for food and water instead.

Cleaning their rubbing spots
Cats rub their cheeks against objects to mark their territory with their scent. By cleaning these areas, you remove their scent, which can unsettle them.

Cat's displeasure signs
