Is it natural for cats to groom themselves a lot randomly (not just eaten, slept, too hot/cold or been petted?
I’m curious what stimulates grooming behavior besides after rest or around meal times. If they’re not doing it as temperature control it’s probably nothing to worry about — just random touch ups are probably to remove dirt, debris or skin flakes ?
Because being touched messes up the fur and puts a foreign scent the cat will try to get rid of quickly. But they don’t always lick the area that was rubbed. Another reason in winter is conserving heat as licking the fur smooths it down and traps air near the skin to insulate against cold. So although the house thermostat is set between 75-80, extra grooming could be a sign my very short hair, thin fur kitty is chilly ?
I have written some material on cat behavior, training, and solutions. Feel free to go to the following site; it will help you understand why cats behave the way they do.
