However, just because there is so much online coverage of funny feline antics, it doesn\u2019t necessarily mean people understand why cats have certain quirks. <\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Entertaining? Oh, yes. Illuminating? Maybe\u2026 Let\u2019s delve into the age-old question, \u201c why does my cat do that!?\u201d<br \/>\n<code><br \/>\n<\/code><br \/>\n<code><br \/>\n<\/code><\/p>\n<h3>Feline Behavior<\/h3>\n<p>Since our natural circadian rhythms differ drastically, it\u2019s downright astonishing that the relationship between humans and cats evolved to the point where we unabashedly adore our feline friends. Previously kept near human settlements for rodent control, cats now lead the pack as the number one kept pet in America, and their fierce independence, ability to amuse, \u00a0and purring affection secures a place in our homes.<\/p>\n<p>Kittens develop an acceptance for \u2013 or an aversion to \u2013 certain stimuli or handling in the first seven weeks of life. Exposure to other animals, unrelated cats, or children lead to a cat\u2019s overall culture, and feline behavior stems from those normal (or not so normal) experiences.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Does It Mean?<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>\u201cKneading\u201d Paws<\/strong> \u2013 This sweet feline behavior is connected to your cat\u2019s memory of nursing from his or her mother. Known as milk-treading, your cat does this when he or she feels happy, satisfied, or wants to find a cozy spot to curl up in (read: your lap).<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The 4-Paw Hug\/Attack or Battle On Your Ankles<\/strong> \u2013 Your cat is a natural hunter and this becomes obvious during play (even if you aren\u2019t aware that you\u2019re \u201cplaying\u201d). While getting your blood drawn by razor-sharp claws or fangs may not be your idea of fun, your cat most likely means no harm.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Chirping<\/strong> \u2013 One of our favorite quirks, cat chirping typically occurs when a cat locks in on prey. It\u2019s a natural reflex and your cat absolutely must do it at the window when a bird is just on the other side.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Loud Meow-ling<\/strong> \u2013 Cat owners are affected by a pet cat\u2019s nocturnal drive to hunt and prowl, and it\u2019s not uncommon to hear repetitive \u201clet me outside now\u201d meows around midnight.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Elevator Butt<\/strong> \u2013 Sure, not every cat enjoys being scratched or rubbed along the spine, but many cats absolutely adore it. If your cat raises his or her <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.catbehaviorassociates.com\/why-do-cats-raise-their-butts-in-the-air\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">butt in the air<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you\u2019ve probably just hit that sweet spot (usually at the base of the tail). \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Snoozing On Your Stuff<\/strong> \u2013 From your laundry basket to your laptop (and lap), your cat feels safe and secure when close to you, and your stuff. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Protect The Belly<\/strong> \u2013 Really, there are few places as soft and comfy as a cat\u2019s tummy, and a cat will typically go to great lengths to protect that furry spot. However, if a cat shows you his or her belly, it\u2019s a sign that you are trusted. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The Flehmen Response<\/strong> \u2013 Has your cat ever smelled something funky and, to show his or her distaste or confusion, raises the front lip into a pseudo-<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Flehmen_response\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">snarl<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">? Lots of animals share this natural reflex, and even though it sure can look odd, it\u2019s perfectly normal (and, let\u2019s just say it: it\u2019s funny and super cute!).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Getting To The Bottom Of Feline Behavior<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are countless quirks unique to our feline friends, and the above list is really just a tip of the iceberg. Cats keep us guessing \u2013 and laughing \u2013 everyday, and with the millions of hits on Youtube, we know we\u2019re not alone.
