14 Ways Your CAT IS TALKING to You (And You're Ignoring It)

Your cat is talking to you constantly — through her tail, her ears, her purr, her meows — and most of it goes past you completely unnoticed. This video breaks down 14 real cat communication signals and what each one actually means. Your cat has a full signalling system, and you're already inside it whether you know it or not. This video takes fourteen of those signals one at a time: tail position, ear movement, whisker direction, purring, meowing, kneading, headbutting, eye contact, belly exposure and more — with what current research and feline behavior experts actually understand about each one today. You'll learn the real reason cats meow at humans but almost never at each other, how to tell relaxed purring from stressed purring, why a cat showing her belly is not asking for a belly rub, and why the slow blink — studied in cats in university research — works as a cat's version of saying I love you. Every signal comes with a simple way to respond, so your cat actually notices that you answered. Count along as you watch and see how many of the fourteen your own cat does on a normal day. Most owners land somewhere between five and eight without ever having noticed.
