1-If a cat licks your hands, face or hair, take it as a big compliment: it’s grooming you like one of its own.
2-If a cat lies on its back when it sees you, it means that it trusts you, since in this position it could not defend itself from an attack.
3-People who have cats have less stress and fewer heart attacks.
4-Cats consider themselves the owners of the house where they live with humans.
5-When a cat rubs against you, it is because it is marking you as part of its territory.
6-A cat almost never communicates with a “meow” to another cat, this sound is used to communicate with humans.
7-If a cat raises its tail and keeps it fully stretched upwards, it means it is greeting.
8-Cats pay more attention to women than to men, because they react better to a high-pitched tone of voice.
9-If your cat gets sick and stops washing, wash it yourself, as it may lose its will to live just by seeing itself dirty and forgotten.
10-Tricolor cats, or those with up to four colors, are exclusively female. Their coats are three colors: black, red, and cream (tortoiseshell), and four-color cats, when they have white. The peculiarity is that tricolor and four-color cats are exclusively female, and in the extremely rare cases of some males, they are sterile.
11-Cats don’t understand punishments, but they do understand rewards when they do something right.
12-Cats sleep 16 to 18 hours a day. But even when asleep, they are alert to any stimulus.
13-Cats have excellent night vision.
14-After eating, cats wash immediately. It’s a survival instinct that drives them to do this so predators don’t smell the food and attack them.
15-The cat walks and runs by moving its front and back legs on the same side. Only the camel, the giraffe, and the cat have this characteristic.
