Some cats become entirely dependent on their owner. As ‘replacement litter mothers’ or ‘replacement lead cats’ humans can easily turn the relationship into one that encourages feline over-dependency and nervousness. In this situation. When a partner first appears they are probably viewed by the cat as an extremely large competitor. An ‘intelligent’ Cat, in feline terms knows as it is best to run and hide and be able to ‘fight another day’ than to be caught up in a potential battle that cannot be won. Eventually, a cat must make the logical decision that the partner is not an aggressive competitor for ‘resources’ within the home, and usually relaxes the nervouse behaviours it was showing.
