Trying to figure out the behavior of a cat can be a very difficult thing. This is, of course, because all a cat owner can do is speculate as to why a cats behavior is the way it is.

A classic example of this is when a cat is purring. Most people think that cats purr because they are happy or content. While this can be the case sometimes, they can also purr because they are injured or is distress. For the most part, however, when a cat is purring, it is a sign to humans that they are an approachable animal.

When cats want to greet each other, or when they want to greet their owners, they will often rub faces. Because they are not face to face with most humans, they will stand on their hind legs at times in an attempt to get face to face. Other cats will roll over on their backs and throw their legs in the air in an offering of saying hello.

Because this is a very vulnerable position for cats to be in, it is a sign that they have total trust in the person they are with.Many cats will also rub up against a persons legs when they greet them. This is because they have scent glands near their temples, and near their tails.


When they rub against someone, it is their way of marking that person to let other cats know who they belong to. Another common aspect of cats behavior that people often wonder about is kneading. This is when they will extend their claws and then retract them while sitting on their owner's lap.

Cats knead their claws in this fashion because it is something they have to do when they are kittens to get milk from their mother. When they are feeling very safe and content, they will mimic this behavior as adults. It is a good sign for your cat to knead with their claws, but it can sting a bit if they dig into your legs.

Cats are complex in their behaviors like most other animals. Watch your cat and take note of certain behaviors to really get to know them.
