Curious Cat Loves Sitting In The Fridge, Confused Human Turns To Reddit For Answers

Cats have this adorably annoying habit of plopping down and sitting in places where they should absolutely not be plopping down and sitting. One Reddit user recently posted a call for advice after his cat repeatedly entered the refrigerator and plopped down for a relaxing squat. Now, what this Reddit user does not know is that there may be no deterring his cat from continuing to display this type of behavior. And why not? Because well, cats are cats.

Cats do what they want to do when they want to do it. Those who have cats may be familiar with this concept. One reason cats like going in the fridge is that the fridge is where you keep all that tasty food. They can usually smell the food too. As well as cat food, your fridge also contains lots of forbidden treats. Cats often hanker after human food that they shouldn't have, or should only have in moderation. Advice for deterring this kinda behavior? Get used to it! Cats gonna cat.

    What you are witnessing, my friend is a cat behaving like a cat. What does it mean to behave like a cat? It means to do whatever tf you want and still look cute while doing it.

    Font - HauntandWander · 13 hr. ago My cats used to do this every time. I don't think there's any deeper reason other than "new exciting space." They grew out of it after a couple months. 2.5k Share •..

    Font - calaquin +1· 10 hr. ago I didn't want my cat going into a closet but he kept trying to run in. One day I just flung the door wide open for him and he went in, wandered around for a minute, then walked out after he'd seen some things. He hasn't tried to get in since. 1.3k Share •••

    Perhaps once the cat actually sits in the fridge for a few uninterrupted minutes, he will realize that it is awfully cold for his liking and from then on refrain, who knows?

    Font - No_Air_6804 · 10 hr. ago yeah you kinda just gotta let cats do whatever they want. Like if you want to get any cat to like you (or at least not hate you), you literally just crouch down slowly and hold out your hand for it to sniff. They just wanna explore and sniff stuff. 597 Share •..

    Font - impy695 10 hr. ago If your cat is comfortable being held, pick them up and give them a smell tour. Walk around your house and bring him to all the things he can't normally reach and let him smell. Lightswitches, pictures, shelfs, cabinets, a weird mark on your wall that you keep forgetting to clean. Really anything that's not the same as the wall at their level 495 Share •••

    Font - TheBirminghamBear +1 · 10 hr. ago My cats used to do this every time. I don't think there's any deeper reason other than "new exciting space." They grew out of it after a couple months. Pretty much the entire reason for the ubiquity of the words "curiosity" and "cat" together with one another. If there's a new area, they want to be in it. Doesn't matter if its a fridge, or some dank dark hole, or some other completely empty room of no interest. They must go there and sit inside.

    Font - IndigoGrunt +2 · 13 hr. ago Sometimes cats just love going inside places that are usually closed. For example closets, cabinets and the fridge. My cat never actually climbed in the fridge but was always poking his head inside when I opened. Its true when they say cats are curious.

    Font - firefawkexxx · 12 hr. ago My cat used to do this all the time; he's a Siamese. One night, I got up to get a water from in the fridge and he jumped in without me knowing. A few hours later I woke up to mewing and was so confused. Not finding Simon on the bed with me like I usually do, I know it was him but couldn't find him because it didn't even occur to me that he would be IN the fridge. Eventually, I let him out and he never got in any fridge ever again. Wouldn't recommend your cat ever
