Understanding Cat Body Language: Ears Signals

Cats have their unique way of putting their ideas across, unlike human beings who do most of their non-verbal communication through eye contact. They do not like to communicate with eyes. In fact, the wider the pupil of the cat expands, the more fearful they become. So how do you know what your tabby is trying to say when he smells your scent, hisses, chatter and caterwauls? The great thing is that they have got a unique way of communicating with their owners which is through their meows. A cat tries to divert the attention of its owner by meowing. A meow can mean lots of things. It can mean that they are asking for food or want to spend some time outside the house.

How To Read Your Cat's Body Language

Important facts about your cat’s body language

# The sound of purr and the parlance behind it

According to Sharon Cromwell Davis, a professor of veterinary behavior at the University of Georgia purring can mean a lot of things, but it does not always mean that your tabby is content. On the contrary, it can also mean that he is debilitated, injured, or scared. The funny part is that they even purr when in a happy state of mind. Need to say anything further?

# A cuddling gesture by the kitty is not always a way to request

A cuddling gesture by your tabby would mean that they want you to stick around and are welcome to be in close proximity. If you are away from home for an entire day due to work or school it is a way of communicating with your pet that he missed you while you were away. So cool, isn’t it?

# Gesturing through eyes       

If your tabby slow blinks you, it does not comprehend that they are sleepy. But it shows that they are having a gala time with you and trust you by showing the comfort level they share with you. So the next time you see your tabby slow blink you don’t give up on them instead play with them so that the moment can be memorable for both of you.

The tails of your feline are not there only to give them balance, but they also tell us about the mood of your tabby.
