- Increased grooming: When a cat licks its coat compulsively and bald patches appear, it’s a sign of extreme boredom.
- Eats more than usual: Anxiety and boredom can cause this behavior.
- Sleeps all the time.
- Behavioral problems: As a result of boredom, cats may become destructive.
- “Bullying” a companion: They may display abusive behavior toward other cats or dogs they live with.
