Understanding Your Cat

The visual knowledge is also important for understanding what your pet desires to communicate.

No longer "The Mystery Cat"
The cat language can be understood by your cat's postures. Felines can be lazy & furtive simultaneously. Its arched back depicts the no-nonsense attitude where you need to be cautious! There's various other postures like its lying on its side, & lying down with tucked paws. The former is the relaxed state, & you need to cautious about the latter. It makes evident that your small pet is definitely up to some nuisance.

When a cat feels sleepy, like most human beings & animals, it adopts the fetal position.

Purrs, Sounds, & Noises
In Your cat's purr in various pitches can foretell the things in store for you. For felines, you--the owner is like relatives. They look up to you as bigger felines. Outsiders are like potential predators & they are thought about threatening. So, if your cat comes across a new face, make sure they are at a safe distance from each other.

The event you make a loud noise, your small companion might hide away somewhere out of fear. They love to spend quieter moments. They show their affection by purring politely at you. The felines love to listen to female voices, as they are more stunning. Half-mews, "Prrrh" & trills friendly greetings when you are also welcomed with a small 'fluffy' rub.

Your cat needs attention or food when its mews are shorter vowel sounds. The sounds without vowels can either be questions or greetings. At that instant you need to look at its facial expressions to gauge what is in your love's mind. Sounds like 'Mrrrheor' or 'Ree-orh' are made to seek your attention.

Your pet recognizes your touch & loves it. Patting your cat's head for a sweet 'hello' can make him/her feel on top of the world. This strengthens your bond together with your furry mate & enhances trust. Touching noses increases the level of intimacy & love at both ends.

Sweet Emotions

A cat's tail is the best way to gauge its emotions. A low tail indicates that the cat is not sure of its surroundings & is prepared for any happening, whereas, an upright tail suggests its confidence & alertness. A lashing tail expresses pending aggression.

The 'Cat' & Tail of it...

Your cat can become hazardous when its hair fluffs out. This is where it means, "Do not mess with me". You'll be able to make out if your pet has been engrossed in some violent sessions with its other 'friends' when its hair is all out of place & makes noises like it is crying.

Your cat's flattened ears show fear or threat. When its ears are facing forward, it shows that it is being attentive.
