Unraveling the Mysteries of Strange Cat Behaviors

Nail Care

Similar to humans, cats have a habit of biting their nails. Since their claws consist of multiple layers, they periodically need to remove the oldest layer to maintain optimal claw performance. This behavior also helps eliminate any accumulated dirt and bacteria from underneath their nails. Nail biting is a natural part of their grooming routine.

However, it's important to take note if the behavior becomes excessive. It could be a sign that your cat is experiencing severe stress or lacks sufficient mental stimulation.
