Cats put their paws on your face as a way to get your attention, because they want food, want to play, want to show trust and affection.
Your cat will bury her face in your arm as a way to check on your health and show affection and love towards you.
Cats sometimes bury their head or face in your arms when they are experiencing anxiety and needing to comfort themselves as well.
Cats can see very well in the dark because cats have large corneas and pupils, which are about 50% larger than humans', allow more light into their eyes.
This extra light helps the cats to see in the dark.
When cats knead it means the cat is comforting themselves and showing pleasure.
Kneading in cats is a behavior frequently observed in domestic cats where, when a cat feels at ease, it may push out and pull in its front paws against a surface such as furniture or carpet, often alternating between right and left limbs.
Kneading is an instinctive behavior for cats, so unless the kneading behavior is truly bothersome, let your cat knead in peace and try to enjoy it.
Adult cats continue this kneading behavior when they're feeling most relaxed, content, and loved.
That's often when they're being petted on their owner's lap.
Think of kneading as a distinct expression of adoration.
Cats are territorial creatures, and one of the ways they safeguard their turf is to scent-mark their belongings.
By kneading their paws on the surface of something (yes, including you), they're activating the scent glands in their soft paw pads, thereby marking that item as theirs.
Below are some common signs that your cat loves you.
Slow Blinking. Eyes are said to be the windows to the soul.
Headbutting. Your cat may bump their head against you or rub their cheeks against you to show affection.
Grooming.
Kneading.
Showing Their Belly.
Meowing.
Purring.
Greeting You at the Door.
In many cases, soft, gentle purrs signal your cat's satisfaction with the world, providing an audible sign of her contentment.
But purring doesn't always indicate happiness; some cats also purr when they are hungry or stressed.
