My cat meows when i hold her..but when my mom holds her?

Question

whenever i hold my cat she wont shut up and shee always sleeps with me and lays next to me when im laying on the couch. but when i pick her up she keeps meowing but when i hand her off to my mom she doesnt do anything. why is that?

Answer 1

Maybe.... its a personality thing due to her not being used to her?

Same with my cat, so I'm not sure but that's what I think I may be.

Answer 2

eh

Answer 3

Maybe she is probably content with you and wants to also get used to your mother?

Answer 4

She's just showing affection to you. It's fine really. Just because she doesn't meow when your mom holds her, doesnt mean she doesnt like your mom. She just verbally showing you affection.

Answer 5

sometimes cats or any animal with get attached to there owner, or who ever see's it most or spends the most time with it. it might just know you better.

hope i help :]

Answer 6

maybe she feels more relaxed with your mom holding her.  Also you are expecting her to meow every time you hold her.  stop expecting her too, and see what happens.

Answer 7

the cat obviously like her better

Answer 8

maybe she just likes to talk to you lol i'm sure its nothing

Answer 9

My cat does a sort of the same thing. When somone older then me pciks him up, he just relaxes, but when I do it he tries to bite me. Maybe he just feels more secure with an adult since some animals see the adults as the protectors and masters of the house.  

Answer 10

Your cat seems to really trust you!
