How to know if my cat is happy

Happy cat

If you are a follower of the blog, it is because you probably like these little felines and, perhaps, you are sharing your life with one or you are thinking of doing so. If so, surely you would like to know if your cat is happy, right? That is, we know that the purr, unless it has had an accident, carries with it a message of love and trust towards their loved ones, but what other things does this furry darling do to show that he feels good?

The body language of the Felis catus is much broader than we might expect. He, to express how comfortable he is, adopts several positions that I am going to tell you next, here, in your article entitled how to know if my cat is happy.

Look at her body

The posture you adopt will tell you how you feel at all times. If he is happy, you will see that his head is slightly erect and his tail is raised with (or without) the tip bent. That is his way of saying that he feels very safe and calm, at that moment, and if he also looks at us and squints his eyes, he will be telling us that he trusts us.

When he sleeps a happy happy cat adopts a thousand and one postures: with his legs in the air, with his body in the shape of a disk, with his head resting on the back of his bed, ... If he were leading a bad life, the little he would sleep would sleep badly, with his tail between his legs or waking up with every noise.

Listen to your cat

Another way you can tell if he is happy is by listening to him. High tones express joy, while the bass indicates that you are uncomfortable. Thus, when it sees you with a can for cats, it will emit long, high-pitched meows, as if it wanted to say "give me the can now, please!" On the other hand, if he feels threatened, his meows will be serious and can be combined with growls and / or snorts.

And of course we can't forget about the purr. If he purrs when you are stroking him, it is because he feels very happy.

Watch it daily

In addition to everything we have said so far, there is one more way to know if the furry is comfortable is by observing him and letting him behave as he is. When he rubs his head against you, or when he cleans you, it is because he feels great about you and, therefore, is a happy cat.

    I am sure that my cat is happy and loves me as I look for me, she always lies with me and kneads me until she falls asleep.

    I have two operated male and female cats, they both seem happy but the male is always marking territory, this indicates that he is not happy about something, it has me worried, apart from that he is destroying the parquet.
    Thanks for the tips.
    Greetings Yolanda.

      Hi Yolanda.

      I recommend taking him to the vet, as he could have a urinary infection.

      Greetings.
