Cats are generally peaceful animals with a calm character. However, sometimes they can feel very upset, and that is when they leave sociability aside to show their other side.
It is important that we know the body language of the furry to prevent the animal from reaching that situation. Find out how to tell if my cat is angry.
All the señales that will indicate that the cat begins to feel uncomfortable are the following:
- Turn your ears back: it will be one of the first things you do. He will turn them back whenever he feels threatened, or whenever he feels fear. Also when he is about to attack. At this time the best thing to do is not pay attention to it, that is, we will not look at it or talk to it, and we will not caress it.
- Open your mouth showing your teeth: the felines have as a defensive weapon their sharp claws, but above all their teeth, with which they can do a lot of damage. If your furry man shows you his teeth, stay away from him. Wait for it to calm down.
- Arch your back: in cases where you really feel that your life is in danger, or when an adult is playing with a puppy that does not leave you alone, you may arch your back and bristle the fur of this part of the body to appear larger.
- Growls: the growl, in many cases, is simply a warning. It's his way of saying "I feel very uncomfortable, stay away." If we ignore this signal, then we can end up getting a scratch or a bite.
An angry cat is an animal that does not feel comfortable, and if it has no where to run, it can attack. It is for this reason that a cat should never be left alone with a baby or small child, since they could end up hurting each other by not knowing the meaning of the body language of both species (feline and human).
