Do you understand your cat’s body language?

When your cats starting putting on some acts, do you understand what they need at that time. When Zoey is hungry, she starts clawing on furnitures and tables. I understand she needs food.
Are there any peculiar acts you have noticed in your cat as well?

I have lived with my three cats for years to understand exactly what they are implying with each body language they are showing me at any point in time. I know what they do when they're hungry and know what they do when they want to use litter box. I also know what they do when they are pissed at me for something that I did.

As a cat owner, you are supposed to be observant about everything that has to do with them because that is the only way you can be able to know when something is wrong with them so that you can act fast on it without having it become too bad.

As the one who owns and take very good care of my cats, I am supposed to know and understand their body language to the very last. This is what makes me to be in a better condition or position to know how to manage them at all times.

That is right. I have been very observant when it comes to my cats because I wouldn't want a situation where I am unaware that my cats are passing through one challenge or another.

It's not difficult for you to learn your cat's body language. In fact, they communicate with you through body language mostly and meowing. If you don't or can't understand that, it means you can't take care of them well.

I understand everything about my cat. Whenever she's hungry, sick or even sad, I will make sure to know what and how it's doing her. I took her like a child and a child always need attention.

There is a reason why I am the one taking very good care of my cat. This have put me in a better position to understand everything about them and also be able to read when something is off in order for me to take care of it as soon as possible.

Yeah, when you are the only one that take care of them, it will give you the sense of curiosity and observation when you feel that they are not really okay. It's understandable to do that.

If you don't understand the body language of your cats, I don't think you should be the right person to keep them because there is no way you can be able to take very good care of them since you cannot understand their body language.

It is just like being a parent with your kids at home. You have to be very observant of their body language to know when something is wrong and react to take care of it when it is early for you to do so before there is going to be a serious complication.

Pets are like babies and if humans can't take of babies, there's no way pets can be safe in their hands. Even baby have body language when they haven't started talking.

Exactly. It is the reason why I always pay a very good attention to whatever that is going on with my cats because that is going to help me to realize what I am supposed to pick up from their body language and attend to it as quickly as possible.

There are some videos I have seen and will always appreciate the owners for caring for their pets as their babies. The last video that brough tears to my eyes was the one that a lady was trying to know how sick her cat was and putting everything that can make it well in check.
