Cats are creatures whose behavior is always unexpected. Nonetheless, they are famous for having unique characteristics and traits. They are always up to something weird and there is obviously no such thing as normal cat behavior. Although one thing is similar between all the cats. They all exhibit certain habits that say something about what they are feeling.
Like humans, cats are also influenced by their environment and mood. They try to impart a valuable lesson to us by behaving the way they do. Just like dogs, they can also be taught to act in a certain way that would be advantageous to the whole family.
You just have to look out for some of their behaviors. The traits such as cats disturbing your sleep every night, engaging in excessive grooming, or participating in destructive kneading or scratching show that there is a hope to train them as they are extremely attached to you. However, it is no easy task. One needs the utmost dedication and patience to train a cat. Additionally, it requires early intervention, veterinary guidance, or behavior training with a cat behavior professional. Below is the list of cat behaviors that will say something about your cat.
1. If they bound around the house
If you are a cat owner, you must be familiar with this trait. After a long day at work when you will return home, Your cat might not greet you at the door like a dog. However, when you will be relieved to be home and eager to take a shower and go to bed, just then your cat will decide to get affectionate with you. It will charge into the room like a band of hounds.
Just when you will get your sound sleep, you’ll suddenly start to hear unusual noises. Yup, that is your cat. Nonetheless, they are nothing but a soft furry ball of energy. Since hunting is not an option for them, they must find an option to release their energy.
There is a huge chance that your cat might think of your house as a jail as there isn't enough room for them to be free. You must have observed house cats zipping around the house. If you ever observe your cat doing this, you should play with them more. It will not only help them burn off their excess energy but would also ensure sound sleep.
2. A face sniffer
It is a dream for many. Cat owners could relate to the feeling when their feline friend unexpectedly buries its face in theirs. Nonetheless, it can be frightening for some but it is a dream for many. After all, cat owners feel lucky whenever their cat gets affectionate with them.
Usually, there is a huge chance that it will catch you off guard. However, once you get used to it, you would realize its importance. Nonetheless, the feeling of a soft face rubbing up against yours is comforting and blissful.
Cats rub their face into yours in order to get your distinct natural aroma. Your face is a great place for your cat to get used to your smell. They use this special characteristic feature to find your essence. Furthermore, your essence will remind them in the future that you are their owner and not some stranger they have never met in their lives. Living with someone they know aids in their relaxation as well.
3. Chirping
Yes, cats also chirp just like birds. Summer evenings are a happy time for birds. You might often hear bird chirping on a beautiful summer evening. Nonetheless, the most beautiful thing to notice then is not the chirping of birds or the beauty of summer evening.
The moment when your adorable soft furry ball notices the birds outside the window and begins to chirp is, in fact, the perfect moment. You will notice your cat chatter its teeth in a way that sounds like a small toy motor is broken. They often make that noise after seeing any bird.
Nonetheless, the sound is equally irritating and adorable. Experts believe that the only reason behind them making such a noise is their inability to capture the bird through the window. However, some cat owners claim that it is their way of warming up their muscles before catching prey.
4. Reclining on your possessions as if they were theirs
Cats consider your house to be their house. Additionally, they consider that you are the one who is living in their house. It is common for cat owners to experience interruptions by their cats while working. Nearly all cat owners on this planet today and those who have lived here in the past can attest to this fact.
Whether you are reading or working on anything essential it doesn’t matter. If your cat wishes to disturb you, it will. It just doesn’t seem to care. Well, you might think that your cat simply does this without any reason or just because they consider your house to be their house.
However, there is a deep fact hidden behind cats’ behavior of disturbing you while you are working. They are attention-seekers. Therefore, they strive for your attention when you do something like reading or using a computer. Thus, they block you from getting what you want so that they can get what they want. They even leave their scent behind on your items to mark their territory. You can simply hug them to satisfy them.
5. Boxes
Cats love boxes. You can buy them expensive cat beds or make a comfortable bed on a cat tree for them, it makes no difference in their eyes. All they want is to remain in that one free box that came with your Amazon order.
They love snuggling them up in a small space. Therefore, whenever they will see small spaces like a box, basin, or other related spaces, they will just leave all the pleasant spots of the house, just to sit there.
Nonetheless, there is a theory behind cats’ behavior of snuggling up in small spaces. They often do it in order to feel warm and secure. Wild cats or those who just live on the streets often take refuge in caves or burrows to protect themselves from danger. Their instinct tells them to get confined in small places. Even though they are well-protected in your house, they feel safer when they are confined.
6. No, they won't treat you like a loaf of bread
If you are a cat owner, you must have seen your cat kneading into some soft things. Well, it most definitely isn't because they formerly worked in a pizza company. Wild cats or any other animal are born with instincts that allow them to do certain things.
The first instinct of a newborn kitten is to press on its mother's teat while drinking her milk. This behavior stimulates the mother cat’s body to produce more milk. As they sometimes need the comfort of their mother, they still use this kneading motion as adults.
Nonetheless, adult cats recognize a soft surface as the comfort of their mother. Therefore, if they are kneading on your body, you should feel grateful and happy. Undoubtedly, they are looking for the comfort of their mother in you.
There are several other theories as well. Some believe that cats demonstrate the behavior of kneading to release tension. While others believe that they do this in order to demonstrate delight and joy.
7. They observe me moving
A fluffy cat is just like a ball of wool that sometimes just lay around in your house. That merely laying around on your floor has a certain appeal. You might observe your cat rolling around on the ground randomly. There are a variety of reasons for this behavior.
One of the most important reasons behind your cat rolling on its back is the comfort you provide them. Nonetheless, they only do this when they are completely at ease. Belly showing indicated that it is exposing itself to danger.
While barring their bodies, cats can simply be moving their muscles or scratching their backs. Some believe that they might be attempting to engage their owner in a game. It is a decent and cute way to mark their territory as well, as rolling around the ground often leaves a scent.
8. Treatment in silence
Cats are known for pride and self-importance along with being full of selfishness. Obviously, they are in complete contrast to normal dogs. They might love you the same but it is against their pride to show it to you.
Nonetheless, just like dogs, cats are familiar with their name and their owner's voice. However, unlike dogs, they do not come whenever you will call them. Cats offer affection as per their wish instead of when you want their affection. After all, they live by their rules.
All cat owners would understand this common behavior of not offering affection whenever demanded. When you contact them and they are not actively looking for attention, they would just scratch you or move away from you. You should know better than to get concerned. Undoubtedly, your cat will approach you when it wants to play.
9. When they experience nighttime flashbacks to the past
Cats are a constant source of entertainment. They keep doing something or other that keeps you entertained throughout the day. We adore all of their feline charges as cat owners and enjoy showing them our love. However, it is a nightmare when they attempt opera singing in the middle of the night.
Nonetheless, all cat owners could relate to the fact that when they are asleep and their cats choose to practice their singing skills, they truly start to reevaluate their life choices. There are diverse opinions about what that noise could mean.
The sounds might come from the cat trying to hunt in their dream, or they might even be cries of annoyance if no prey is found. The only thing that could ensure your sound sleep is your cat’s sound sleep. This can happen only when your cat is exhausted when you go to sleep. You can play with it while you are up to tire them up.
10. Let cats sleep in peace
Cats love to sleep. They sleep for almost 1/3rd of their lifetime. You will often find them just laying around on the ground and sleeping at the oddest time in the oddest places. Nonetheless, there is a reason behind the sleeping pattern that they have.
Your kitten likes to sleep for forty winks for a purpose. The purpose is that their bodies release the growth hormones necessary for their development while they sleep. This is the very reason why you must have observed kittens sleeping more than adults.
Some also believe that they sleep for most hours to conserve their energy for the upcoming hunt or activity. They also doze off when they are bored, just like us, when they have nothing much to do. You can try to play with it if you wish. If you are lucky, they will also interact with you at that point.
11. Teething
Just like humans, cats also feel the urge to chew something when they start having teeth. They might also suffer from the disorder known as "teething Pica". The disorder made them chew on plastic and other non-food things.
It could be a matter of concern if you ever observe your cat routinely gnawing on non-food objects. You should immediately take it to the vet where it will be well-diagnosed and treated with care.
There is yet research pending on what causes pica. However, they think it may be related to calorie imbalances, stress, or concern. Cats chew on non-food items to reduce their tension. This is a cause of concern as it could eventually affect your cat's digestive system.
12. Making you unhappy
All cat owners could easily relate to one of the odd behaviors of cats. You might have seen a cat trying to be cuddled while you are sitting on the couch. However, despite showing the gesture of wanting cuddles, it keeps slipping out of your tender hands to give you a taste of its fluffy bum.
You might think about the reason why your cat behaves in that particular way. Although it may seem unpleasant, it really isn’t. It is its way of showing affection. Just like when a dog lifts its tail and thrusts its rump in your face, it is truly an expression of affection and faith. By elevating their tails, cats communicate their friendliness and willingness to engage in conversation with you. You should feel complimented by such behavior.
13. Toilet Patrol
You might have observed your cat following you everywhere. Even when you will go to the loo, it will go along with you. Definitely not because it wants to pee too. Your fluffy cat follows you around like a bodyguard to see if everything is okay with you.
According to several studies, when cats feel like their owners are feeling threatened, they follow them wherever they go to protect them. Well, isn’t it nice? However, some studies also believe that cats are naturally curious animals. They might follow you to know what you are up to. Maybe they want you to watch them and they're smart enough to know that if they're in the restroom with you, you'll be watching them.
14. I guess I'm grateful for the dead mouse
Have you ever gotten a gift from your beloved cat? Discovering a dead mouse close to your feet is enough to ruin your day. Nonetheless, the cat's ability to decrease pests is a good thing and often comes in handy. However, noticing it first thing in the morning may make you wonder about your cat's behavior.
Well, there is a piece of good news for all cat owners. If you have received a gift from your cat, you should be honored. Their mothers teach them this along with other skills. It's also possible that your cat is expressing gratitude for your care. They might also gift you something to get your attention.
15. Leaning against a wall
In many manners, cats are just like humans. You must have banged your head into the wall someday or the other when you are frustrated. It turns out that cats engage in a similar activity when they are mad. They haphazardly press their heads against walls. This is one of the behaviors that perhaps it has observed you doing and learned from that.
However, this behavior can be concerning if accompanied by noises. Take the cat to a vet as soon as you can if this habit of banging against the wall gets accompanied by strange noises. You can easily differentiate the noise as the noise it will make then would be different from the noises that it typically makes. This might indicate nerve injury brought on by trauma, poisoning, growth, or another factor.
16. Bury their rubbish to dispose of it
Cats love cleanliness. They keep grooming themselves to clean them up. Another reason for them to stay cleaner than their canine companions is that they always make sure to bury their excrement in the litter box. Alternatively, the wild cat takes care of its shit after covering it with dirt.
However, in addition to being clean, cats cover their excreta for one more reason. They often hide their excreta in order to blend in with their group and conceal their scent from predators.
Covering their excrement is so common behavior that it is a cause of concern if your cat does not cover their waste. This change of behavior might indicate a disease, nervousness, a dislike of the provided litter box, etc.
17. Why do cats always lick our feet?
Nothing beats having plenty of room for your legs to spread out wherever you want when you're sleeping. It is a dream for many to have enough legroom to stretch their legs especially if they're tall. Keeping your legs up would be an added benefit. However, if you are a cat owner, you must’ve gotten used to sharing your legroom by now.
It is very common for your cat to suddenly starts to jump on your feet when you are just chilling in your space. Instead of indicating violence, it shows their dedication to their hunting skills. They are merely practicing their jumps and attacks.
Since the majority of cats are quite playful, they often seek out games when they become bored. All you have to do is get them interested in a noisy toy. Walla, your problem is solved and your leg is saved.
18. Chilling
Cats have mastered the art of striking a royally tranquil stance. They behave as if they actually own the space and consider you to be their pet. They actually believe the fact that you are the one leaving in their house. When they actually believe that, they display all of their fluff beautifully. You can really see them at their cutest behavior when they feel safe around you.
If your cat is dozing out while showing their fluffy beautifully, you should feel complimented. Nonetheless, trust is in the air. They become vulnerable and expose their bellies to you when they have a high level of trust in you. If your cat frequently engages in this behavior, it clearly loves you and deeply enjoys its time with you.
19. Getting euphoric from catnip
Catnip is a leafy plant that seems ordinary and is related to mint. Some cats go completely crazy when they are in the vicinity of the plant. In addition to cats, catnip is the favorite thing of all canines. It has been demonstrated that even lions and tigers are affected by catnip, in addition to tiny cats.
Catnip induces excitement among cats. Its component, nepetalactone, stimulates the sensors in cats' nostrils. For about 70% of cats, this sensation is a trip and a source of great excitement. They will be extremely active, slobber, and make strange noises after having catnip. They will remain high for about ten minutes after having their source of intoxication.
20. “Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr, purr”
It's quite another to hear your beloved cat purr like an advanced machine running without a hitch. Sincerely, the sound is pretty satisfying. When your cat purrs a lot, you know they are enjoying and living its best life. When they simply arch their small bodies and purr continuously, the satisfaction multiplies. The best blessings are when the little kittens purr around you.
Purring has many meanings. In addition to just being content and pleased, cats even purr to calm themselves down. When they get agitated or anxious, they purr to calm themselves and communicate. They and their owners can both be greatly calmed by that constant purring and vibration. We can say that purring is the sound of calmness for all.
21. Four feet that are always on the ground
Cats have flexible bodies. They are renowned for coming to a full stop all of a sudden on all fours after jumping or falling. It is quite superficial to observe them doing this all the time. Their bodies are designed in a certain way that allows them to achieve that utmost level of flexibility.
Cats have more vertebrae in their spine. The vertebrae make them more flexible. They are indeed able to twist their bodies after landing. This very ability ensures their perfect landing on their feet every time they fall, intensionally or unintentionally. Yes, it is not like they have nine lives.
Cats have the talent of perfect landing from birth. They don’t need to be taught the skill. With little practice and some practical experience, they master the skill when they reach the age of six or seven weeks.
Nonetheless, cats can easily compete with any gymnast in terms of balance. Thanks to their light, matted fur, light bones, and light bodies, they get saved from getting killed because of their weird actions.
22. An ear flutter
Cats communicate in the cutest ways possible and one of those ways is by using their ears. You must have seen markings on their ears. The markings are given to help with communication. Cats use their ears to indicate various things.
If cats twitch their ears, you should exercise caution around them since this typically indicates that they are anxious or worried. A cat is comfortable and happy if its ears are pointing straight ahead. When the ears are pushed back or flat against the head, it's either angry or afraid.
The flat ear of a cat is most concerning as it indicates that it is time to act. Instead of just being irritated with you, they can be cautioning you about the danger ahead. Understanding about different ear flutters would help you to understand your cat better
23. Greedy cats
You could remember your mother indicating that cats are aware of the medications they require when they are ill. If you are a cat owner, you must have also seen your cat eating grass sometimes. So, what benefits does grass have for cats? Well, it should attract your attention.
Cats plan everything. Nonetheless, when we see them eating grass, we feel bad for them. The terrible expressions that they have on their faces while eating grass ensure that they don’t like eating it. However, they do this to attract your attention and to give themselves treatment.
When cats have intestinal issues, they self-purge by eating grass. Additionally, the majority of grass types include folic acid, which they require in their diet. Therefore, make sure that the grass they are eating is fresh. Get them checked for intestinal issues as well if you would see them eating grass for a long time.
24. Stay away if the tail swishes
Dogs wag their tails to express happiness. When we see it, that makes us joyful as well. Cats do not wag their tails to show happiness. It is the complete opposite for them. Be on the lookout because the kitty isn't in a pleasant mood if you notice their tails moving back and forth.
Make sure to leave your kitty alone whenever you see them in a situation of waging tails back and forth. It just needs its space at that point in time. It will eventually settle down on its own. However, if you notice the tail twitching and bouncing, it could mean a good thing. At this point, your cat might be interested in what you are saying
25. I'm closing in on you
Cats are predators by nature. They have needle-like teeth and a sharp set of retractable claws that were a gift from nature to give them the capability to hunt. It makes sense why it hurts when they bite you. In reality, there are several causes behind this behavior.
When a cat bites, it may be trying to communicate several things. It could say that it is angry, agitated, fearful, and hence defensive, or playful. In a way, biting is a natural behavior for wild cats because it is how they express themselves.
26. Hurling objects to the ground
Cats are a menace to the house. Undoubtedly, they could reach any height and can even fit themselves in the closet day. All the cat owners could relate to the fact that they have surely heard a loud clattering sound while they are sitting at the table, doing their work.
The cat might be as cool as a cucumber for a second and in the other second, they will just go crazy. You might be about halfway through your task when you would suddenly hear a disturbing sound. Obviously, it is your cat as it suddenly had the bright idea to knock your water bottle off the table. They would even look at with pleasure what it has attained after accomplishing the goal.
In fact, you might think that cats throw your things just to annoy you. However, according to scientists, there is a reason behind why they act in this way. They believe that cats have hunting skills and they act this way out of a natural hunting impulse. They play with their prey naturally to hone their hunting techniques.
Furthermore, cats are quickly bored. They are a better planner than you are and thus they know that making noise is a surefire technique to catch your attention. There is no question that they are big attention-seekers.
27. Biting one's nails
People habitually bite their nails. For those of us who have this behavior, we do it when we're under stress or worry. A test's anticipated outcomes are always true suspense. Just like humans, cats also bite their nails. Not all cats do this. Nonetheless, just like humans, the cats who bite their nails also have a reason for it.
Even cats, like humans, bite their nails because they are anxious or simply bored. T could even be possibly used as a grooming technique. However, if it is done constantly, it could be cause for concern. You should consider taking your cat to the clinic if it repeatedly bites at its nails. This uncommon behavior could be a sign of an infection or parasite.
28. Am I hearing a snake or a tire puncture?
Most people appear to grasp that they should move away if a cat hisses at them. Yeah, they also hiss just like snakes. There are several reasons behind why they hiss. They might hiss when they're angry, scared, or worried. If the behavior is studied properly then it could tell a lot about your cat.
A cat will hiss if it thinks you or another person or animal pose a threat. To make you feel threatened and to save themselves, they use their well-renowned hissing techniques. You could simply maintain your distance whenever you come across a hissing cat. Give it some space and let it cool itself down. It will be all right eventually.
29. Scritch – Scratch
Cat owners could never buy expensive pieces of furniture or leave their cats alone with any of it. We've all read spooky stories about people coming home to find their plush furniture torn to pieces by a cat's claws.
This is a very general behavior of a cat. To save your items of furniture from getting ruined, just get a scratching post or a toy for your feline child and your furniture will be fine.
You might think about the behavior and why your cat has it. Well, there are three main reasons for this. They either do it to clean the dead cells out of their claws, to leave their scent behind in a particular location or just to stretch their bodies because it feels nice. Whatever the reason, they surely find joy in doing this.
30. As they transition from the living area to the litter box
No matter how much they love their cat, nothing depresses cat owners more than witnessing cats peeing or pooping outside of the litter box. You do not want to begin your day by walking through cat poop or piss. The feeling is similar to the cats leaving dead animals as gifts. Both feelings are enough to ruin your whole day.
However, the problem of pooping outside the litter box is not an intentional one. The undesirable behavior can indicate a problem. It's possible that the litter you used there or the cat doesn't get along. It is also possible that perhaps it prefers a different position for the box.
You should observe the situation first to figure out the cause behind their behavior. Give a shot at changing the position of the litter box or buying a new litter box, if necessary. Consult a veterinarian if they keep doing this despite having a new litter box.
31. Ninja style
Cats are experts in moving covertly. Their style to move so cautiously has given the origin to the term "cat feet." Nonetheless, they move as though they are made of air. They could easily move in the dark.
Cats even enjoy moving silently from shadow to shadow and hiding behind the furniture as they sneak around the house. You wouldn’t even know where they are or what they are up to.
Cats are given this ability to catch prey in the dark. However, even domestic cats have this ability. They use their ability to sneak around in the house. They don’t give up even a chance to take advantage of their genetic makeup. Nonetheless, they use it to receive the attention they crave because they are naturally sly and stealthy animals.
32. Sleeping with your chest up
It can be one of the finest feelings in the world when someone you care about rests their head on your chest. Whether the person is your partner, parents, or your beloved pet. For this to occur with cats, there needs to be a great deal of trust between the two parties. A cat would never come close to your chest before trusting you completely.
Cats adore the beautiful warmth emanating from human chests. They adore the scent of their owners. Additionally, the rhythm of their breathing gently soothes them into a sound sleep. Cats adore it because it makes them feel safe. This is the very reason why you would see them often curling up to you and sleeping o your chest.
33. Head bopping and rubbing
Cats, as we previously noted, have the propensity to push their faces against yours. They do it out of love and affection. It's not aggressive if they choose to head butt you very softly. According to scientists, it might be the cat's way of saying hello.
They act in this way to demonstrate how at ease they are around the individual, animal, or object in question. When they touch, their pheromones indicate the other thing or person as safe by transferring them to it. The term that experts use to describe this endearing activity is called Banting.
34. Nervous kitties
There is absolutely no support for the common perception that cats detest water. Some cats live much of their lives near water because they adore it so much. A very strong illustration to refute this notion is the wild fishing cats that may be found in Asia.
Most of the time, cats who paw water are just looking to play and have some fun. However, some cats favor drinking water straight from the source. Pawing could therefore be a method of really aerating the water to mimic its freshness. Nonetheless, the felines can never let go of their elegance.
35. When you scratch their back, they make that adorable arch
Scratching may be a highly enjoyable hobby, even for us people. It rings especially true when you have someone else give you a back scratch and it just feels so good when they hit the right spot. We often want someone to scratch us back to sleep. When we scratch the backs of cats, they too feel pampered and appreciated just like humans.
A cat will typically elevate its hind end to indicate that you have discovered the perfect location to stroke it's back. It is their way of expressing that it is enjoying the experience. Anytime a cat does this, it's considered high praise and an indication that you have won the cat's favor.
36. MEOW! Hear me out!
When it comes to getting things done the way they want, cats are, for the most part, masters. May it be done by rubbing, purring, acting like a puss in boots, or, if all else fails, by meowing as though the house is on fire. All that matters to them is to get their work done.
It may meow in this manner if it is in need of food, is trapped, or needs to be allowed outside. It's best to consult a veterinarian if it persists because sometimes they would do this when they felt lonely or unwell.
37. Feline Yoga
Stretching when doing feline yoga is actually a great healthy habit to establish and maintain. When performed consistently, it not only benefits the performance of workouts but also the health of the joints and good mobility. Cats stretch a lot, so it makes sense.
Cats use stretching to increase blood pressure, drive out toxins and other dangerous substances from their muscles, and just because it feels good. They also do it to get their circulation moving again after periods of rest. Cats frequently sleep, so it makes sense that they would also need to stretch frequently.
38. Sleeping in a ball-like position
Cats are natural warmers. A cat can stay warm by curling up into a little ball while napping if the weather is chilly. It is also the best sleeping position for cats because it protects their stomachs and internal organs. The whole process keeps them secure when they are most vulnerable.
Many cats already have the inclination to curl up through the night, even when you offer them a nice cushion. Nonetheless, they only know one way to stay warm and comfortable in the wild. After all, old habits do die hard. They will need time to get accustomed to warm cushions. However, no one could deny the fact that they look so cute.
39. In Boots, Puss
Although it's not the most frequent occurrence, watching a cat standing on its hind legs seems a little unsettling. Dogs are frequently pictured standing on their hind legs. Although it appears to be extremely out of place, there is a reason behind this.
In the wild, a cat may attempt to rise on its hind legs to appear larger if it were threatened and the prospects of escaping were slim. You now understand what this means, so maintain a safe distance unless it's to reach for anything to eat
40. Undertones of "meow"
Cats want to communicate with you by producing noise; they don't just do it for fun. So pay attention; they might be trying to tell you something important. After all, no one could ignore the cute meows. We always end up giving them the attention they want.
A charming little meow is typically used to say "hi" or to ask for affection. If a cat comes up to you meowing, you should pet it and rub its head and back to win the affection of a very content kitten. Like this, both of you will be happy.
41. Drinking directly from the faucet
Cats have a very weak thirst reflex. It is because of their thirst reflex, they could accidentally get dehydrated if fresh water isn't accessible. On the other hand, some cats are so picky that they will forgo their water bowl in favor of a few drops from your faucet.
It is well acknowledged that flowing water is preferred over still water in the environment, therefore this is yet another quality they got from their predecessors. After all, fresh water is something we all want. When you're thirsty, nothing compares to the taste of fresh water.
42. Freedom!
Every cat owner had a cat who run erratically about their home with crazed eyes after using the restroom. You should feel lucky if you have ever seen your cat doing this. You have seen what most academics refer to as "the zoomies."
There is another explanation for why cats often run about the house like they're escaping from dogs, despite the comical aspect of it. According to research, cats do this to be as far away from the droppings as possible so they can avoid predators.
43. Are you seeking me, exactly?
Lemurs move on all fours with their tails raised like flagstaffs, as you may have seen if you had the opportunity to watch a wildlife segment on them. Cats, it just so happens, exhibit the same habit. You might think that why exactly do they do this?
A cat that has its tail pointing straight up is one that has been eagerly anticipating your return and is really appreciative of your presence. Therefore, cuddling makes the most sense in this circumstance.
44. Their thick tail encircles you
A cat uses a number of techniques, such as different meows and body language, when trying to communicate with a human. Additionally, adding deliberate physical touch helps them communicate their point more effectively.
A cat cannot express how important you are to them in any other manner than by encircling you. They can more easily cover us in their fragrance by wrapping their tail around us and rubbing. This list demonstrates how significant this is.
45. Partial mast tail
The tail drooping is a telltale sign that you should exercise caution while interacting with your cat. A cat's lowered tail suggests that it is uncertain of its surroundings and that it is on the defensive. They are preparing for whatever might happen.
However, it is not always true that a cat's drooping tail indicates hostility or unease. Persian breeds, for example, wag their tails while playing. Your cat might not be like other cats, just like everything else.
