Possible sign 8: Head butting! I’ve only had two cats in my life use this communication, but quite often one of my cats bonks the top of his head to my head (usually forehead).
@@100percentSNAFU I have an orange tomcat that seems to think he's some sort of Billy Goat. He'll jump on you and head butt you right square in the face😼
I give a slow wink with one eye,with a sweet closed mouth smile. Used to make my cat run to jump in my lap.. but it doesn't work anymore now that he is sick.
#8. Your cat grooms you. My Skittle will lie down and groom (lick/wash) my arms, legs, pretty much any exposed skin area when she's feeling particularly affectionate. She'll also sit on the back of my chair and groom my hair. In both cases she's purring wildly.
Add: 1.) Your cat will follow you around the house and want to be where you are--even THE BATHROOM 😸 2.) Wait for you outside of a closed door wondering what you are doing and when you are coming out.
my cat is always sleeping on my chest when i wake up, and greets me with head bumps in the morning when i wake up. The base of her tail goes really fluffy and she nestles her head into my neck. She also likes to roll onto her side, or nestle up in my arms and looks up at me and rubs her nose on my cheecks constantly. She is beautiful.
Depends on how hard. If your cat is more play biting or nipping, that's the kind of activity they did as kittens with their litter mates. Hissing and biting...not good.
@g54b95 What does it mean if it starts with soft biting with paws and claws holding my arm. When I take my arm away, he glares at my hand and attacks for real. (When he's biting softly, my hand doesn't wrestle with him. I keep it limp and still).
The funny thing with one of my cats is that with sitting in laps, she always wants to be on me or near me, and will curl up on my lap all the time, but she also doesn't like being touched much so if I'm not careful to keep my arms and hands at least a foot away from her (which is difficult to do when I'm at my desk) she will strike out and attack my hands and arms, absolutely offended that they were anywhere near her even if they were in the same position when she decided to get on my lap. She is very particular and gives mixed signals all the time like nudging my hand for pets and then attacking my hand after one or two head pets. She gives very little warning when she's had enough attention and wakes every day actively choosing violence, but does show so many ways that she loves me. Basically, she can use me as a pillow and jungle gym, but doesn't often want me touching her.
Other than that, both of my cats show all the signs. Except with the gentler cat, she prefers to settle down on my arm or right near me for cuddles instead of being on my lap. They both give me presents of various toys and will leave them on my bed for me. Each are sweethearts in their own ways.
OMG one of my cats talks to hear herself talk! But, I know how to translate much of her talking to me. Did your cat ask questions? Mine will have the same human sound at the end of her question. It's so funny.
My last cat use to spend 5 plus minutes washing my face and bury her head into my neck. Each cat is totally different, my current cat only comes cuddles once a day for half an hour to an hour.... This younger cat will give me light bites on my arm or bare leg or even feet.... Every cat have different ways of showing their love....
my cat follows me everywhere, if I sit down at night watching TV she has to b near me, doesn't matter how long I'm there. doesn't like being picked up, she knows she has it good.
One of my cats does most of those signs, and the other does only a few of them. One other thing I notice is that they show their love by spending time with me and falling asleep near me. Sometimes I turn around and see a sleeping baby on the couch and it makes my heart melt ❤
I adopted a chimera cat when she was a 6 week old kitten. Her mommy only had 3 kittens and just one survived which is the kitty we adopted named Tessa. Nobody wanted her because she was so different but my wife and I did and we wanted to bring her home. She’s never been a touchy feely cat but she wants to always be around my wife and I which makes the times that she does seek out our touch extra special. When I take a nap in the afternoons she always comes upstairs with me and makes several hundred biscuits on my stomach. I’ve got scratch marks all over my stomach from her kneading me but I just lay there and endure it because I know it’s a way she shows her love and contentment. The look on her face is absolutely super sweet. Her eyes are half shut and she just purrs and kneads away.
My cat is not a lap cat and does not like to be held but she sleeps with me at night and often joins me in a different room if I'm there for an extended period of time. She also asks to be pet on her own schedule. She's not cuddly but those are her ways of showing affection. Plus she sometimes starts purring and kneading when I talk to her. Just talk.
I exchange slow-blinks w/ my cats (and the strays I take care of) so much that I've been conditioned to do it when I see a cat doing it on my screen. Charlie's favorite form of bunting on me is 'face mushies", where he just mushes the side of his face across my cheek.
My cat has his own inner clock and part of it is daily at 3 p.m. he comes to cuddle with me .. i call it his Mommy-Time. He seldom comes for cuddles at any other time.
I share a cat with my neighbors from across the street. I pray and hope he's always safe whilst crossing my street. He exhibits ALL seven signs which you have mentioned. "Meow" ("Hello") from Charlie Ginger Tigger -- one sweet orange tabby! ❤😸😻😽
my MC doesn't care about sitting on my lap, she'll happily sit next to me though. All other signs are spot on. She also wants me to join her when she's eating. Pretty tasty kibble 😀
My kitten does all of this -but presents- on his first 5 days with us. I am absolutely in love with my little guy. I did not expect so much love in the beginning. My orange furry is so affectionate and definitely a lap cat.
All four of my cats make biscuits, purr, bunt/rub against me, yawn, and slow blink. All but one bring me various items, usually their toys, but one really likes to bring me a rubber doorstop for some reason lol. I have one cat who loves sitting on my lap no matter where I am, two will sit on my lap in certain circumstances, and one who prefers to sit next to me instead.
Thank for this information. I have 2 adopted cats (brother and sister), and sometimes I wonder if they love me or just tolerate me because I feed them. But they do everything you said! So yeah! They love me! ❤😂🎉
Not only have I seen all seven, my current cat has displayed all seven and is in my lap, making biscuits, rubbing me, and purring while watching this video. I’ve always loved my cats and they always seem to love me back. When I see someone criticizing cats, I figure that’s not a good cat owner.
My Bengal would head bunt my fist anytime I said "Give me some love". My current cat, a short haired orange tabby, likes to actually headbutt my head, usually right after I feed him. And sometimes that shit hurts!
Entertaining video. I have two cats, sisters. They both do six of the signs. I have never seen either one make biscuits. They love attention and petting. They will lie on their back and want a belly rub. Panda will come to us and jump in our lap. Colbie expects us to come to her. Happy Purrsday!
0ne of our four cats does not like to cuddle at all, not even a little, but when we play, she is very very gentle with her paws and teeth. Also, she decorates our bed with toys which is very very cute! One other, a real British shorthair, love is his second name! I got him from a shelter when he was 7 and ever since then he overwhelms me with love. The other two I got when they were 2 weeks old. I bottle fed them and they really believe I am their Mommy, still now and they are 15 now. Thank you for sharing 💐👍🏻I love anything I can learn from your informations! Greetings from a little village in Europe.
The young stray cat at my sister's that I took to get fixed, stayed with me while she healed. Started bumping my chin. Hard! She was only 7lbs but her little jump up to my chin was love and I knew it. My sister let her get pregnant 2x. None of her other kittens survived the male cat. I saved her little body when she got pregnant a 3rd time. Took care of her for 2 weeks bc she'd still been pregnant and needed 2 weeks of healing. Bumped my chin, made biscuits and purred. 🥰😻 My mother gets all of Elsa's love now and I couldn't be happier! Also, my cats don't really purr anymore. But one lays flat out on her back paws and feet just hanging. She feels safe and loved. Both of them do all the list but purr. I don't think they want to waste energy on that anymore. 😂😂😂
I see about 5 of these signs in each of my 3 cats. Never really seen the slow blink in any of these three, or any of the other three cats I owned previously though. I think the slow blink is just over-rated. Cats don't like being stared at, so they blink to defuse a stressful situation (staring = conflict). If you don't stare at them to start with, maybe they don't need to blink? I try slow blinking at them but not much success getting one back...Thanks for the video, you are so sweet 🙂
I noticed our cats love to be in our company often (like they stay in the same room with us & nap). & of course they go off to their favorite quiet place & nap there.
I have 3 cats inside and they do alot of the things that you mentioned even my stray cats outside do a few of them,,,,that's so awesome to know thank you
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ everytime I have my,Chemotherapy, my Little Angel Babies will, NOT LEAVE MY SIDE !! They walk me to the Restroom and to the Fridge to go get Water !!!! They lay all around me while I'm gathering myself and just, PURRRRRRR !!!! It's so comforting and I can feel their Love ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ 💕 💘 for me!!! They are, AMAZING AND AWESOME!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊😊
We have a mother and daughter. The daughter was born in the house and she is finicky and I’m bedridden and they visit me a few times a day for treats. The daughter rubs her face and body across my feet (she doesn’t like a lot of touching because she doesn’t like the scent) her mum climbs all over me and makes biscuits then they race each other to eat as much as they can to go nap on my window sill first 😂😂😂😂
I'm 53 my wife's dead. My kids are old enough to be out of my house. I got stuck with the cat. But now my room my bed my hands it will not go to sleep unless I got its tail in my hand
my kitten loves me but i cant understand the licking no matter how i try to stop him from licking i redirect him but he redirects me lol and its back to licking what can i do to stop this behavior thank you in advance
I actually don’t like cats I’m a dog person but my boyfriends cat loves to sleep on my lap and rub my legs. She’s growing on me but will always prefer dogs 🐶 😅

Kiki gives us chipmunks, lizard, frogs... whatever she can catch w her little paws
With all due respect, it’s much safer for cats to be indoors only. Plus, they kill millions of songbirds each year.
Thank you, good to know my cat loves me. I certainly love her.
