Cats often like to cause trouble, probably because they are born with hunting instincts and curiosity. This makes them tend to imitate hunting behaviors, such as pouncing on toys or chasing small animals, and learning about their surroundings by pouncing, biting, and scratching with their claws.
In addition, when cats feel lonely, they may try to attract their owners' attention by acting out, hoping that their owners will play with them and help them release some stress.
