"I get weirded out when I reach for my vibrator and my cat is in the same room. She might be fast asleep, but the moment she hears the buzz, her eyes go wide, and I know she knows. I mean, I don't know how she knows what I'm about to do - as far as I'm aware, there's no kitty vibrator (although the slogans for that would be chef's kiss) - but it feels awkward, vulnerable, and I always end up kicking her out before I do anything."
""Pets don't understand human sexuality the way we do, but they can pick up on emotional energy and body language," Dr. Nathaniel Rakestraw, DVM, tells S cary Mommy. "Dogs and cats are very attuned to changes in their environment and may sense excitement or unusual movement and sounds, which usually grabs their attention." In other words, your pets are not judging your moves (thank god), but they definitely know something is happening."
Owners often feel uncomfortable when pets are present during masturbation or partnered sex. Animals may react to vibrator buzzes or unusual movements and sounds, drawing attention. Pets can stare, approach, or physically intrude, which can feel awkward, vulnerable, and distracting. Many owners remove pets from the room to preserve privacy. Veterinarians explain that pets do not understand human sexuality but are highly attuned to emotional energy, body language, and changes in the environment. Dogs and cats may sense excitement or unusual movement, which captures their attention. Pets are not judging sexual behavior, but their awareness can affect owners' comfort.
