Painful Biting
While it might seem alarming when your cat bites you, it’s often their way of communicating discomfort or overstimulation. Cats may bite during play when they get too excited or if they’re trying to tell you they’ve had enough petting. Understanding your cat’s body language can help prevent these bites; for instance, watch for signs of agitation like flattened ears, twitching tails, or dilated pupils. If you notice these signals, it’s best to stop interacting and give your cat some space. Over time, you’ll learn to recognize your cat’s limits and create a more harmonious relationship.
Purring Loudly
A cat’s purr is often associated with contentment and relaxation, but if your cat is purring unusually loudly, it could indicate more than just happiness. Cats also purr when they’re in pain or feeling stressed as a way to comfort themselves. If your cat’s loud purring is accompanied by other signs of distress, such as hiding or changes in eating habits, it might be worth a visit to the vet to ensure everything is okay. Loud purring can be a multifaceted form of communication.
