Meow.. Meow.. Meow... Bliss Cat
- Your cat shows friendship by draping its tail over you, your dog, or another cat.
- A slow blink, in Wilde's words, is akin to a "kitty kiss." This gesture conveys trust and contentment.
- Cats and their owners have a distinct "vocabulary" that consists of various vocalizations, purrs, and mannerisms.
- Dogs only have ten distinct vocalizations, compared to up to 100 in cats.
- Making direct eye contact with cats can seem intimidating. Because they have smell glands in such places, cats mark you as their territory when they rub their faces and bodies against you.
- Yawns are a common approach for cats to settle an argument with another animal.
- According to Wilde, the cat that is hissing in a battle is the more vulnerable one.
- Your cat is very delighted to see you if she approaches you with a straight tail that practically vibrates.
- Kneading is a symbol of joy and happiness, while some call it "making biscuits." When a mother is nursing, cats knead her to encourage the let-down of milk.
- Cats have created the meowing activity specifically to communicate with people.
- It's not always a request for a belly rub when a cat rolls over and reveals his belly. When a cat feels trusting and at ease, he will act in this way.
- Cats are playing, not attacking, when they slap you with their retracted claws.
- Dogs may be showing delight when they wag their tails. For cats, however, this is not the case! Your cat is trying to tell you that you are starting to irritate her when she wags her tail.
- Your cat is showing you friendship when he sticks his butt in your face.
- A cat's whiskers can also reveal a lot about its emotions. A cat retracts his whiskers when he is afraid. However, a cat's whiskers are extended when it is hunting.
- Staying indoors prolongs the life of cats.
- Cats have a six-fold height jump.
- Humans only have 206 bones, compared to 230 in cats.
- Certain cats have swimming abilities.
- Cats enjoy napping on items that carry their owner's scent, such cushions and soiled laundry (yuck!).
- Laundry baskets are a great place for cats to sleep since they resemble hidden spots with peepholes.
- When bored, cats often attack your ankles.
- Some cats have an odd taste for items like potato chips, olives, and the hops in beer.
- Cats detest citrus odors for some reason.
- Licking their owner's just cleaned hair is a common cat behavior.
