Cats do not proclaim love with much open and universal tendencies. Instead, their I trust you cues will tend to occur in the everyday body language and minor behaviors, in the moments when a cat chooses to be intimate.
A friendly behavior cannot be confused with love and one action can not be performed in a different situation. It is beneficial to listen to as well so that the message may be brought out more clearly by paying attention to what comes before and what directly follows the behavior such as relaxed posture, soft-eyed gaze, and relaxed tail.
1. Kneading on a lap or blanket
Kneading -also sometimes known as making biscuits- is also used when a cat is relaxed and safe. Kittens knead when suckling to assist in getting the milk to run and most adult cats maintain the habit because it has a close connection with comfort. Others also knead since they also liberate soothing dopamine which can make the action self-perpetuating on calming down time. There is the other layer too, which is scent: cats have glands between their toes, and therein the kneading may make a special this is mine mark on a favourite person.
2. Following from room to room
A cat that creeps upon one is one that generally considers them a safe haven of shelter- a one deserving of keeping. Aftering may either be casual, interest, or habit (especially of footsteps, a promising promise of food or sport). The behavior may also continue to the stage of constant distress that can be pacing, frantic vocalizing or inability to calm with separation, that may be a signal to further enrichment or help of the child.
3. Banging of head and rubbing cheeks
Bumping the head of the cat, in the hand of the person, or dragging-in the cheek, of the cat, along a leg, is not only a greeting. The deposition of facial scent and the mixing of group smell Cats rub to advertise their territories with scent and in general this social cue can only be viewed in comfortable and trusting places. Many cats repeat this ritual at some predictable times like after a nap, prior to food, when a favorite person comes back because it helps in enhancing security.
4. Blinking of the room, intermittently
One of the weakest signs of the ease is the slow blink. When a cat, squints and closes his eyes in front of the face of a person, then this is a sign that the cat is sure that there is no danger to it and it can temporarily allow itself a relaxing guard. When there is no petting action, other cats tend to offer slow blinks as opposed to being petted as though to check in without necessarily touching.
5. Almost to purr and make up his mind
Purring can also be accompanied with satisfaction especially when one of the cats is lying near a person or sitting on his or her lap. It tends to accompany other signs of repose, the paws not being tight, the face gentle and the body inclined rather than turned away. As purring can also be introduced in some instances where a cat wants to relax, the most evident love interpretation is when purring is done in a state of tranquil closeness and then it stops to be excited.
6. Bringing “gifts” like toys
And there are cats which bear toys–or, in the case of those which go out, game–as though it were a sacrifice. Such a move can signify instincts of a predator, desire to share and call to action. When the cat puts a toy by the side of a person and hangs around, the communication was; this to you, and, let us do something together.
7. Licking or gentle nibbling
Cat kisses are austere in the figures. Licking could be an affiliative grooming behavior which unites the society in the same way that cats groom one another. The cat may also seek attention whenever it has learned to lick is a certain reward and may occur because of the appeal of salts in sweat. In case of the amplification of the licking behavior under stressful conditions, then we may conclude that it is a coping mechanism, rather than a love instinct.
8. Sharing a sleep or being close to a person
One vulnerability test is the level of sleep. The cat that likes to sleep on a bed, snuggle up to a leg or even more to the feet of a person suggests some form of trust that does not necessarily involve being with someone at any given time. The majority of cats also select the sleeping place based on its predictability and comfort and thus, recurrent use of identical location, identical individual can be a major marker of bond.
9. Wrapping an arm in a tail or caressing it
The tail is a means of communication and it can express affection in a very informal way. One of the forms of hugging the cat is a soft tail around a wrist or ankle, which is good as pet but does not require petting. The loose upright tail can also signify a friendly confident stance and flicking or twitching could signify irritation and the need to be left alone.
Feline love, like any other, is not an instance, it is a tendency. When several of these behaviors are overlapping with each other, especially in combination with the communicative quality of ease of body language, one is likely to find that a cat is trying to communicate to them a sense of comfort, attachment and trust.
One of the ways of protecting such a bond is to realize the difference between I like you and I am overwhelmed. The only sign is consistency: a cat that always prefers to be with him can be offering something valuable.
