Kitty Language

Cats tend to communicate with each other using body language more than vocalisation, so it’s very imporant to learn how to read your cat. Learn to recognise that tail twitch that means they’re getting a little agitated and it’s time to stop rubbing their belly or scratching their ears.

Meowing is largely for communication with us humans, and we quickly learn what each one means if we listen to the different inflections and volumes. You know exactly when your kitty is hungry or wants you to open the door so’s they can come inside.

Learning body language is equally, if not more, important as many a painful scratch can be avoided. It’s also useful if you have a multi-cat household as you can learn to recognise when a disagreement might be in the offing between two cats and evasive action can be taken.

It is worth your while to pay attention and learn when your cat is afraid, apprehensive, protective, agitated, wanting to pick a fight or just ready for a cuddle.
