Many people who don't keep cats have such a prejudice against cats. They think that cats have no feelings for their owners. They label cats as "cold" and "loner", and feel that when cats take the initiative to find people, they are always for food, there is a material purpose.


But with more and more time together, the owner can really appreciate the cat's concern. Cats' emotions are affected by human emotions, and cats are also emotional animals.


Cats perceive happiness and sadness in people.In normal life, cats stay where they are used to playing, and are relatively independent pets. But when the owner is unhappy, the cat will quietly stay by the owner's side.


A University of Michigan study of 12 cats and their owners found that cats behave differently when people smile or frown. Cats are more likely to purr when people are laughing, and at this time, they will rub people and sit on people's laps. So we can know that cats' emotions are affected by people and respond to them. We may still not understand what the cat is thinking, but we can clearly know that the cat is not cold-blooded, it is interested in the owner, and will pay attention to what we are doing.


Cats need owner's attention.One of the common ways for cats to say hello is to roll over to show your belly to show that the cat is saying "Hi, you're back, master". This behavior is especially common among kittens, because they are very happy to see you at this time, and hope that you can get your attention in such a way, and even want you to gently rub their belly.


Owners should not show excessive anxiety when a cat is sick.When we know our cat is sick, we must be very anxious. Therefore, when we face cats, we will show sadness. However, cats' emotions can be influenced by people. If the cat feels that the person is in a sad mood, it will also be very stressed, so when the cat is sick, it will also feel more negative emotions, which will be detrimental to the disease.


Here are a few signs a cat can show when it's down:


1. Keep shaking its head


The cat keeps shaking its head, which means that it is uncomfortable and needs you to hug it to comfort its hurt heart. Of course, it is best to take it to the doctor. If it keeps sticking its head out, it means it is curious about what you are doing, or wants to go out for a walk.


2. Sudden clingy


If the cat suddenly becomes clingy and curls up in your lap, it may mean that the cat is expressing its frustration.


3. Ignore you


When the cat avoids your gaze and faces the corner alone, it may be that the cat is upset and frustrated. For example, if you have friends at your house, but the cat doesn't like to accept new friends, so he will lose his temper and turn his back to you.
