The language of cats, do you know how to interpret it?

Cats are some fun and great pets , some friends and unique companions that never stop surprise us with their mohines and a thousand ways to get our attention or look around any corner of the house.Living with our cats reveals their personality, behavior and how they express themselves to communicate with us.Researchers have made numerous studies on the behavior of cats and have concluded that, far from being cold or uncommunicative animals, cats are as expressive as dogs .

How cats communicate with us

The research of the University of California has highlighted c Like many of the cat's behaviors, they are misunderstood by their owners.So, cats don't always purr when they're happy, they also do it when they're hurt or sick. Purring would mean a request for care and honey.

Another way to get our attention is also to rub against our legs to greeting mode when we return home.Researchers have noted that it is a common behavior among wild cats and is a kind of greeting when they meet again after separating, a kind of hug.A way of being kind and show us their joy in seeing us again and how much they have missed us.If they rub against the frames of the doors or walls, then simply they are marking territory.

What does it tell you when it blinks?

The same goes for facial gestures , According to researchers, most people tend to look closely at the expressions of their cats since they tend to think that it is not expressed that way, however, studies have shown that cats usually demonstrate with their facial expression if they are tense, sick, happy or relaxed .

And the meows?

Sometimes adorable, sometimes scared or ask us, cats communicate with us with a very special language: the meow .According to the studies, the meow does not really use it to communicate with other cats, but to communicate with humans.Yes, wild cats barely meow, they are really very silent and usually meowing an average of one meow every 100 hours .Domestic cats instead meow frequently to get our attention and try to communicate with us.Besides, it has been shown that is not exactly a universal language and that each cat has a special way of communicating with its humans.
