Every cat owner knows that cats love their humans. They don't just tolerate us because we give them food and take care of them. Cats love us. Cats are simply less obvious in the ways that they show us their affection. But they still do it. It's simply up to us to read our cats - to learn their behaviors and what they mean, to see those things that our cats do to show us they love us.
And of all the people in the world, we know that our audience is the kind of audience who definitely pays attention to its cats - that will definitely see and appreciate all the small things that cats do to show us they love us. So, when we asked you guys to tell us about those small but meaningful things, we knew that you would come back with hundreds of answers. The only thing we didn't know is just how funny some of those answers would be.
Oh, there is nothing quite as awwdorable as the pitter-patter of a cat's paws when they follow you around the house. Cats are sleek, sure, and if they don't want you to hear their steps, they can do that, but them feeling so carefree and comfortable, pitter-pattering around the house as loudly as humanly possible… consider our hearts melted.
Hey, even these kinds of annoying little things are displays of affection, we agree! Cats are playful, cats want to prank, and this one choosing you as their playmate, climbing on top of you - trusting your balance, that you will keep them safe - well… if that's not a compliment, we don't know what is.
