Why Do Cats Get the Zoomies?

Does your cat sometimes suddenly act super crazy, racing around the house, jumping on furniture, and pouncing on everything in sight? Some people call this the zoomies, cat crazy time, or the cat crazies. Here are a couple of things to know about why cats get the zoomies.

Cat Crazy Time Is the Release of Pent-Up Energy
The zoomies in cats is more frequently seen in kittens and cats that live in small spaces or that are alone a lot. It's the release of pent-up energy that hasn't been spent on hunting or playing throughout the day. Remember, cats are predators, so when they live indoors and don't have to hunt, that energy can build up and needs to be released.

If your adult cat frequently gets the zoomies, it could mean that she needs more interactive playtime with you. Set aside two 10-minute play sessions per day, and engage your cat with an interactive wand toy. Be sure to put the toy away between sessions, so your cat doesn't try to play with it alone and become dangerously entangled.

Kittens probably need significantly more interactive playtime than older cats, and some very active cats might need more too. Increase your cat's playtime as needed.

If you are gone and your cat is home alone a lot, you can provide puzzle toys and automatic cat toys to help release her mental and physical energy during that time.

Add scratching posts and trees to your home to help your cat get out extra energy throughout the day. Scratching is very good for cats' mental health, and it can also decrease the chances that your cat will scratch inappropriate items in your home because she is not getting her energy out elsewhere.

Zoomies Can Indicate Anxiety in Cats

If your cat has suddenly begun to engage in cat crazy time when she never did so before, it could indicate that she is suffering anxiety for some reason. This is sometimes the case when you moved to a new home, get a new pet, or have a new schedule that impacts the time you spend with your cat.

Many times, anxiety and cats can be relieved by employing some of the methods above, including extra interactive playtime. You may also wish to use a Feliway diffuser to help calm your cat. Feliway is a substance that mimics a calming pheromone produced by felines, and it can help decrease anxiety and stress in cats.

Cats May Run Around Like Crazy from a Medical Problem

Medical problems can cause this crazy running around behavior that some cats engage in. You should be especially suspicious of a medical problem. If the behavior begins suddenly, with no obvious triggers. Here are some of the medical conditions that can cause this feline behavior:

Hyperthyroidism. In older cats, hyperthyroidism can cause increased energy levels and that might result in the zoomies.

Flea infestation. Cats receiving flea bites might zoom around like crazy, trying to get away from the sensation.

Allergies or other itchy skin problems. As is the case with flea bites, cats with other uncomfortable skin conditions might race around like crazy in an attempt to escape from the irritating feeling.
Changes in hearing or eyesight. This is especially the case in older cats. Changes in hearing or eyesight might cause them to be spooked by sounds or sights they can't identify easily.

Tom's famous mrrp-honk barking sound makes my day

Nothing better then when you're just chilling with your cat but you see its pupils go wide as it enters *the silly zone*

[chuckmangione]

My cat will always hunker over and stare me dead in the face before his zoomies. I always stare back wide eyed for a minute and when I make any sudden movement he’s off like a rocket!

[monicarose]

It usually happens after a visit to the litter box; as if they’re so excited, they can’t help but express the unbearable lightness of being!

[Thrillrider]

I love the little trills and chirps as he goes zooming around the room.

[izuela]

I wonder what cats are imagining when they get like this. They clearly have some super exciting fantasy playing outn in their mind.

[reginaokami]

Cat zoomies are the best because they happen out of nowhere. The cat is just there laying down, then crab walking running grabbing the first thing it sees doing a 360º rolling doing weird noises wall climbing hugging the floor fox jumping and slapping.





I get to see that all the time and it's funny every. single. time.

*Cats have two modes:*
1. Just lit a joint mode
2. Just snorted a whole line mode

[neeliez]

i absolutely love how he does his tiny "mrrrap" with every single movement they make like hes mumbling to himself.
also i adore the little transcript at the end of the description.

[Kiwinan]

My little female is insane she does parkour zoomies! She literally runs and bounces of the walls!

[thedownsides]

Gotta love a kitty that can have tremendous fun all by itself.

[GLING]

LOL! My cat gets the zoomies and she runs through the entire house and then leaps into the window like Supercat! So cute! ❤

[Biden_is_demented]

Cats are masters of entertaining themselves with just about anything. A piece of paper becomes a cat´s bubble wrapper, their own tail is a fishing rod, a piece of half eaten kibble is a bowling ball, the dog´s ears are a boxing bag., and a shoe is a magic cave. Anything and everything can become an adventure. The sounds he makes are just adorable, it´s as if he´s saying "Oooooh look at this! And what´s that over there?! Wow, a new toy! Can i play?" /Leon voice

[deepalall]

Cutest little furball! I can't handle the chirping 😘💕🐈

[nocturnalrecluse]

He's just playing with his invisible friend.

[janetgm]

They are so funny when they get the zoomies! If you can, try building a "runway" on the walls so cats can run/leap from shelf to shelf. They love the extra dimension to run on. I have a high cat tree the shelves along the same height. My cats will start in the hall, Zoom across the living room, up the cat tree, across the shelves then back to the tree and down again! Great exercise for them!

[SunnyAquamarine]

Awwww my son tells me our two cats "have the late night zoomies" every night and they wake him up so this is super adorable to me

[wittysue]

Adore his chatter. (He's actually very like my Freddy who's crossed Rainbow Bridge so the tears are tripping me!) 🐾🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[theroaminggnomad]

Zoomies AND chatter. The two-hit wonder. 💗😻

[moussaka]

LOL I can see it immediately in my cat’s eyes. I say “are you crazy???” and off she goes. 😂😂😂
