Today, we will take cat lovers to see what it means when cats make strange gestures. They are cute but strange.
Shaking their butts is a warm-up or muscle warm-up before attacking. When cats shake their butts back and forth, it is usually a behavior that occurs when cats are playing or wanting to hunt something, such as a toy or something they are interested in. Cats will shake their butts back and forth in a manner similar to preparation for jumping or hunting, which is a behavior that shows alertness and stimulation in the cat’s body.
Turn their butts as a cat-like greeting because cats mostly communicate through scent. If a cat turns its butt towards us, it means that the cat trusts and wants to greet us or accept us. Especially in cats that have close relationships with their owners or housemates, cats will turn their butts to show trust and friendliness. This behavior is similar to what cats will do to other cats in nature, which is to show non-aggression and say “I am not a threat” or “I trust you”. If a cat turns its butt towards its owner and feels comfortable and does not appear stressed or anxious, this may be a sign of bonding or asking for attention from its owner.
Stand on two legs to intimidate opponents or to be curious. A cat standing on two front legs seems like a cute and strange action! It can happen in some cases when the cat wants to stretch or behaves in a specific way, such as trying to stretch or asking for attention from the owner. This behavior may make the cat look like it is standing up like a real human!
Running at full speed for no reason is to release the excess energy in the cat when the cat runs at full speed for no apparent reason or for a short period of time. The behavior may occur after the cat has slept for a long time or when the cat is very excited. Running at full speed is often seen in younger cats or cats that still have a lot of energy left, but it can also be found in older cats that are happy or want to exercise their bodies. This type of running is often a way to relax or show happiness. Sometimes it may be chasing a toy or running after something that the cat is interested in in the house.
Sitting with a little belly showing This sitting position is cooler, allowing the cat to breathe better and reduce body heat. It also makes it easier to groom itself. When sitting with a belly showing or lying on its back, it shows that the cat is showing its belly and is often a sign that the cat feels very safe and relaxed. This behavior means that the cat trusts and is confident in the environment that the cat is in. Because the belly is the most vulnerable part of the cat. If the cat feels stressed or insecure, it will not show its belly. Sitting with a belly showing is also a way to show that the cat is comfortable sleeping in this position. Cats feel no threat from you or your surroundings, but that doesn’t mean they always want you to touch their belly. Some cats may just show that they are comfortable and relaxed, but don’t really want to touch their belly.
Slightly raised or slightly opened mouth corners occur when cats sense pheromones or scents, such as urine or other cats. When cats raise or slightly open mouth corners, it is often a sign of relaxed emotion or satisfaction. Some cats will smile like this when they feel happy or comfortable in their environment, such as when they are near their owner or when they are enjoying what they are doing, such as lying down or sitting in a place where they feel safe. However, sometimes the open mouth corners can be an expression of relaxation or gentleness, similar to how cats may show this gesture when being petted or touched in a spot they like, such as their head or neck.
However, sometimes the slightly opened mouth corners can be a sign of interest or satisfaction that occurs during interactions with you, such as when the cat is playing or receiving attention from you.
