The reality is that cats can be masters at hiding many things, including their emotions. But, in many occasions a careful observation will show you some behaviors that your kitty will do if he is happy and enjoying life.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you want to know if your cat is happy, we recommend a careful observation of its body language. This will teach you to know what makes him uncomfortable or upset, as well as how to distinguish when he is happy and relaxed.  <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Is your cat happy? Watch it<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A cat is happy if it exhibits some of the behaviors listed below.  <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Purring<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The vast majority of cats will purr if they feel happy and at ease. A cat that is calm may begin to emit that characteristic sound we know as a purr. On the other hand, there are times when a cat may purr as well, but to reassure itself that it is in trouble. So you must take into account the circumstances in each case. A cat that is next to you, curled up and calm and starts purring, is a happy cat.  <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Kneading.  <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is the name given to the typical movement that cats make with their paws, in such a way that it looks as if they were kneading. It is also known as cookie making. Cats can knead a blanket, something soft or even a person. This is considered a great sign that a cat is happy.  <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Drooling<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. Although this sign can be a bit annoying, a cat that drools when hugged or petted may be showing great signs of happiness. It should be noted that drooling as a sign of happiness only occurs when a cat receives affection or attention. In other words, if he drools at any other time, a veterinarian should be consulted.  <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Curious attitude.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  A cat with a friendly and curious attitude is probably a cat that is happy. For example, if your cat comes up to you with its tail held high, rubs against your legs and head butts you, it may be a happy cat. Also, if he seems interested in sniffing your hands or the things you carry in them, he may also be a cat who is quite content and satisfied with his life.  <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Game.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  Cats love to play. This both alone and with people or other animals. You can stimulate this habit by giving him toys such as special hanging objects for cats and others. A cat that plays is definitely a happy cat.  <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Normal habits<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A cat that performs daily routines is a cat that is doing well. For example, if he eats well and on time, gets enough sleep and keeps his coat shiny and well-groomed. All of these attitudes are signs that your cat is not only in good health, but is also probably happy.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you notice changes in their sleeping, grooming or feeding routines, it is advisable to consult your veterinarian.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Image courtesy of https:\/\/pixabay.com, all rights reserved.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever wondered when you look at your cat if he is happy?
