How to understand what a cat wants?

To bring up a cat, it needs to be understood! The behavior of cats requires special attention and is interesting for their spontaneity in expressing emotions of feelings and desires. Peculiarities of behavior in any particular life situation can be manifested to a greater or lesser extent in different cats' species in their own way, although, as the experienced owners of different peoples assert, there are also basic generalizing characteristics of the habits and manners of furry pets.

The main characteristic features of pronounced behavior are the positions of parts of the cat's body - tail, wool, ears, and also the position of the body's main body. If the cat is very nervous, threatened, or very frightened, then there is a characteristic sharp hiss, the back arches, forming a hump, then perhaps an assault or a sharp escape escape on the part of the animal. At games, in such pose, absence of intensity, and also playful movements of a head from above - downwards and in the parties are appreciable.

Here are some features of behavior in cats:

• The vertical location of the tail, with a calm rumbling, slightly curved back and approaching one of the coming households testify to the friendly greeting and deep disposition of a furry friend. If the tail is raised vertically, but its tip is constantly shaking, then the cat eagerly and with growing appetite awaits refreshments. But if the cat lies, the eyes are half-closed, but the tail is constantly moving in a circle, from time to time making as if the whip, then the cat is resting, but something is alarming her, or she is watching someone in half-asleep. The tail is horizontal with uneven waving - the cat is something very unhappy or disappointed.


• The feelings of contentment, tranquility and satisfaction are expressed in cats. Sometimes purring is also an indicator of the request to treat the pet along with affectionate movements about the owner's legs or simply a feeling of deep disposition towards the person.

The individuality of cats is distinguished by temperament in the first six months of life. Distinguish them as well as people in four categories. Each feature of temperament is interesting in its own way and it is an excellent ground for building relationships with a pet.

• Sanguine cats have a more balanced, calm type of behavior, moderately cheerful. Willingly go to contact and show patience to other animals and people. Easy to relate to moving, any change of scenery.


• Cat-melancholic opposite, very often tied to only one owner, very jealous, to change with caution, to innovations in the house with disbelief. They demand special attentive attitude, they are easy to offend. But friends from them are very true, because in temperament the main note is full trust to a certain person.


• Phlegmatic cats are the most patient and balanced. Any changes in the environment and relations can be transferred practically without consequences and responses in behavior. They get used to a sedentary lifestyle, they often become very lazy with age.


• Cats-choleric, like choleric people, are distinguished by mobility, communication in any possible manifestation, activity in each of their fluffy body cells. But this requires a special approach in education. They do not suffer punishments, in any form, even screams and strict moral teachings.
