3 Signs That Your Cat Is Happy

Just like us, animals express how they feel through body language as well as sound.Cats use many different parts of their body to show us how they’re feeling. Here are 3 signs your cat is feeling happy.

1. Tail Position. The tail can tell you a lot about how a cat is feeling. A happy cat raises its tail straight up. A cat may still be happy if their tail is up the in air with the tip curled. It just means that they feel a bit unsure.

2. Ears. A cat is relaxed when their ears are facing forward, but tilted back just slightly. When a cat’s ears are flattened or lowered, this means they are feeling fearful or anxious. When one ear is flattened, but the other is not, they feel unsure of what’s around them.

3. Posture.  You can tell your cat is happy when they sleep with their paws tucked under. This tells you they feel relaxed and at home in their environment as well as with who is in that environment. A cat that is feeling aggressive will straighten it’s legs and erect the hair along their spine.
