There are many stress reactions in cats, the most obvious being ruffled fur, dilated pupils, hissing, and excessive licking. When your cat exhibits these behaviors, you should pay attention. Some cats may also experience more severe stress reactions, such as incontinence or sudden heart attacks.

To prevent your cat from getting hurt, you must be careful. Don't force your cat to do things it doesn't like, don't force it to adapt to its environment too quickly, and importantly, when your cat is stressed, try to comfort it or eliminate the stressor.
