I would wager that anyone who owns a cat can attest to how great they are. Anytime I encounter someone who claims they’re not a fan of cats, I can’t help but question their character, and, furthermore, debate whether or not I trust them as a person. Unless you’ve had an exceptionally traumatizing experience with one of these critters, you really don’t have a valid excuse, and I can say that because I have had traumatic as hell instances with felines, and yet, I still adore them.
One of my earliest memories is having my hand positively mutilated by a cat. If I can love them to the extent I do after this event, then anyone can.
I’ve picked up a decent amount of knowledge about cats over the years, and because a lot of the information is helpful and rather cute, I wanted to share what I know with all of you.
For starters, if you’ve ever noticed your cat slowly blinking while looking at you, or in your general direction, there is a very high probability that they’re communicating to you that they love you.
If your cat often positions itself in such a way that its back is to you, it’s doing so as a form of protection on your behalf.
If a cat sleeps on top of you, you have absolutely and entirely earned their trust.
The same ideology applies to a cat following you from room to room – when they do this, it means that they enjoy your company, and that they trust you.
If a cat sits in your presence with its front legs tucked underneath them, this is an indication that it feels safe and at peace with you and their surroundings.
The personality of a cat is often a reflection of their owner, so if you come across one that’s a real dick, there is a reason for it.
