8 Ways Cats Express Their Love For Humans

Are you someone who loves your cat unconditionally? Do you often celebrate any good news related to cats and animals? Cats are affectionate, loving creatures. You can tell they care about you by how they interact with you, right? It’s not always easy to tell if your kitty loves you, but here are some signs that she does:

Your cat rubs against your legs

Cats are highly affectionate creatures. They love to be petted and stroked and often seek human attention if they feel like they haven’t had enough of it. A cat that rubs up against you sends signals that it wants some attention from you.

Your cat purrs

Your cat purrs when he is happy, relaxed, or in pain. He does not purr when he is sad and crying for attention, but rather when he wants to show you that he’s content and comfortable. A cat will also purr when sick or scared if it has been attached to a human for a long time and knows that the human will take care of it through its illness.

Your cat gives you “love bites.”

When your cat nibbles on your hand, it’s not because they’re trying to punish you. Your sweet kitty tells you they love and want to be close to you!

Your cat follows you around, even to the bathroom

Cats are known for their love of being around humans. They can often be found stretching out in the sun or in a comfy spot on your lap. But did you know that cats also enjoy being near other animals and objects?

Your cat brings you her favourite toys

When you’re out of the house, your cat will often bring you a favourite toy to show how much she loves you. It’s almost as though she wants to say, “This is my favourite toy, but it’s also yours because I love you.”

Your cat lays on you and won’t budge.

Cats are very territorial animals and like to be close to their humans. If your cat is lying to you, it’s likely because they feel safe and secure with you. You’ve probably noticed that when you’re cuddling with your cat in bed, he’ll curl up next to your feet or shoulders.

Your cat headbutts you (gently)

Headbutting is a prevalent cat behaviour, often used as a form of greeting and a way to show affection and dominance. Cats tend to use this body language before they purr or even meow at their owners.

You are a top priority to your cat

The relationship between a cat and its owner is a unique one. The cat has chosen you as the one who will play with it, feed it, pet it and keep it safe. Cats are very expressive when they want something from their owners.

Cats are affectionate and sweet but aren’t always the best at showing it. It can be hard to tell if your cat loves you or is just being friendly. Keep in mind that not all cats do these things regularly (or at all), so if your kitty doesn’t seem interested in headbutting or following you around, don’t worry!
