Here’s a breakdown of key feline body language cues and what they really mean:

🐾 The Tail Tells All

  • Upright with a slight curl: Happy and confident.
  • Puffed-up tail: Scared or startled.
  • Low or tucked tail: Nervous or submissive.
  • Twitching tip: Focused or slightly irritated.

👂 The Ears Are Key

  • Forward-facing ears: Curious and engaged.
  • Flattened ears: Fearful or defensive.
  • Swiveling ears: Monitoring surroundings.

😽 Slow Blinks & Head Butts

  • A slow blink from your cat is the ultimate sign of trust and affection, try returning it!
  • Head butts and cheek rubs are ways cats mark you as family.

💖 The Truth About Purring

While purring is often a sign of contentment, it can also indicate pain or distress. Pay attention to the context. If your cat is purring while tense or hiding, it might be a sign they need help.
