Does your cat LIKE you?

You may think your cat is plotting to kill you…but in reality, we bet they LOVE you!

No…really!

Dogs are much easier to read…so here are some signs your cat really does like you from Cosmo and Hill’s:

  • They purr a lot and seem pretty calm when you pet them.
  • They bring you stuff, like toys or dead animals.  Those aren’t really “gifts” but they do put them in places where they feel secure…which means they feel safe with you.
  • They get in your personal space a lot.  When they rub up against you, they’re trying to cover you in pheromones to tell other cats you’re already theirs.
  • They knead on you with their claws.  Licking you and lightly biting you can also be signs that they like you and feel comfortable with you.
  • They roll over and show you their stomach.  It’s a BIG sign of trust.
  • They stare at you and slowly wink or blink their eyes.  That’s another sign of trust.  You can respond by slowly blinking back at them.
  • They greet you with their tail up.  It means they feel confident and happy around you.  When they carry their tail down low, it usually means they’re nervous especially if it’s tucked under their body.

Look for the signs…we bet you’ll find them…every day! ❤❤❤
