My kitten acts like a dog

Question

My kitten never liked cat food and my friend was about to feed her dog and my kitten likes dog food. It's not only that, he likes to go get things like when a dog plays fetch. Other then that he acts like a cat like grooming himself.

So like what do think is the cause for that?

I think it's cute.

Any opinions?

Answer 1

It's really just their personality.  Lots of cats I know love toys.  But she really should eat cat food.  So don't go out and buy dog food!  My dog likes to clean herself like a cat, and there's nothing wrong with that!  

Answer 2

well maybe because it's so young it's not sure of what it likes and not, and it might be playful and that might be the cause of the fetch.  i'd say wait a longer and if it still acts like a dog, idk.

Answer 3

if theres a dog in the house then your cat is probably picking up on stuff that the dog is doing.....my cat is like a dog in a sense that she will eat almost any food and she begs for it too, but otherwise she acts like a human lol.

Answer 4

invite a dog to your house and scare the cat to its senses

Answer 5

i hate cats only because how they act

but id love them if they acted like dogs

so a kitten that acts like a dog must be soo cute(:

Answer 6

Definitely cute. I wish I had a cat that acted like a dog! You're one lucky son of a gun. (:

Answer 7

all i know is that its normal for it to eat dog food

Answer 8

Those who say dog food is bad for cats are correct. I'd say try the kitten on Royal Canin cat food. My cats love it. However, it is expensive and generally only available from vets.

Answer 9

Answer 10

Answer 11

I do not know but do not feed you cat dog food.  There isn't the right kinds of nutrition for them in dog food.  

Answer 12

My Baby Polar used to fetch and loved to chew my shoes, just like   a pup.  He is the most wonderful cat.

Answer 13

He's a transpecie. You should consider cat-to-dog surgery.

Answer 14

My cat plays fetch. On her own agenda, of course. If you throw a toy out of nowhere, she'll chase it but not bring it back, but a couple times a day she'll bring me or someone in my family a toy to throw and then she fetches it.

I also caught her drinking out of the toilet several times...

Cats are just weird (but cute!) animals in general. Unless he's doing something harmful, I'd say your cat is fine. Buy maybe you shouldn't give him dog food in case he gets sick >.>

Answer 15

it is not a problem just something the cat does.

Answer 16

its alright. the cat really just likes being a dog..looks up to it and likes there habbits. its cute
