Their aloofness draws us in and makes us want to win them over. We woo them with treats and buy them toys. We want our cats to return our love by making us their person.

Our methodology can have mixed results. Our feline companions show their love in different ways. But our behavior can also anger our feline friends.

There are at least five ways to piss off your cat. And if your cat is like all of mine, they are not too shy about sharing their feelings.

Here are five ways to piss off your cat.
