Cats are one of the most popular types of pets. There are many people among their admirers. Some people would like to know that their pet reciprocates love, but do not know how to determine how the cat is feeling.
Instructions
Step 1
To understand if your cat loves you, you need to observe her behavior. There are several signals that this pet gives to its beloved owners, for example, purring. If your kitty begins to make characteristic sounds, meeting you or sitting on your lap, you can be sure she treats you with true tenderness.
Step 2
Pay attention to how the cat sits on your lap. If she not only purrs, but also fiddles with her front paws, as if stomping on the spot, this is a sure sign of her ardent love and devotion. This behavior is also called "milk step". Kittens in this way express their love for the mother cat.
Step 3
You can be confident in your cat's warm feelings if she rubs her head and sides against you. To just anyone, the cat will not be so fondled. Observe whether the animal does this only when it wants to eat or at other times too. The behavior in the second case indicates a special disposition of the animal towards you.
Step 4
Don't be offended if your cat loves to play with your hair, even if it scratches your scalp occasionally, or licks it. If this loyal but proud animal has taken up your hair, then she considers you a member of her family. So you can be calm: the cat loves you as much as you love her.
Step 5
Interpret your pet's behavior correctly. If a cat touches your face with its paw in the morning, this does not mean that it does not let you sleep out of harm. Perhaps she is just very bored or afraid that you would oversleep. And when a cat living in a private house, having the opportunity to walk and hunt, brings mice and birds to the master's bed, it means that she takes care of her beloved people.
Step 6
Don't impose your company on the cat. If she is not in the mood for play or petting, leave the animal alone. Otherwise, the cat will begin to avoid you and will not be able to show its love. Wait for your pet to come up to you and ask to pet you.
Step 7
Consider your cat's personality traits. Not all of them are affectionate and playful. It happens that the animal avoids its owners and prefers to spend time alone. To understand how a single cat treats you specifically, see if she sets you apart from other family members or guests. The fact that she does not hiss at you, as at the others, when trying to stroke her, may indicate her special disposition.
Step 8
See how your cat behaves when you get home. An animal that loves you very much will always run to the door, just hearing your steps. A loving cat will definitely express its feelings to you by lifting its tail with a pipe and twitching it with its tip. This behavior suggests that the animal is simply delighted that her loved one has come.
