Signs your cat loves you
15 years ago
General
A while back I read an article (http://www.suite101.com/content/does-your-cat-love-you-a47934) that listed behaviors that your cat may exhibit if he/she loves you. And interestingly enough, I've seen nearly all of them in Lani, if not more.
- Greeting me at the door: Check. Lani's an indoor cat, so she doesn't have a whole lot of places to go, but if I'm gone for more than a few minutes, she's usually meowing on the other side of the door when I come home. In fact, I have to be careful opening the door so I don't hit her.
- Following me from room to room: Check. Especially true when I use the litterbox. She'll run in and get a quick snack from her feeder, or drink some water, or use the litterbox herself, then run out. A few minutes later, she's back in, then back out.
- Adjusting to my schedule: Think so, but not sure. I do know that Lani seems to know when to let me sleep in, and usually doesn't bother me unless she hears me doing something in the room (most notably on the computer).
- Purrs, rubbing, other telltale signs. Check on the purring. Double check on the rubbing. Lani is also very talkative, which leads me to believe that she may be part-Siamese. Her meows are the high-pitched kittenish ones, so they are very pleading and rather difficult to ignore. Lani likes a lot of attention, which I don't mind giving her provided I'm not busy with something else, like websurfing, email, etc.
