10 Signs That Your Cat Really Loves You
Sep 11, 2018
First they purr, then they roll on their back, and then they claw your hand. Your cat is not just erratic - he or she is trying to say "I love you!" If you recognize these 10 typical behaviors from your darling feline friend, then you can be sure that your cat holds you close to their heart just like you do.
1. They follow you anywhere and everywhere
Why is your cat following you around the house and curiously watching everything you do? It's actually quite simple. They like you and really don't want to leave your side!

2. They rub their head against you
If your cat rubs its head against you, it not only wants to get in a little cuddle time, but it also is trying to mark you with its scent. Even though we can't smell it all, your cat is trying to tell other cats that "this person belongs to me!"
3. They clean you
If your cat licks your skin, hair or even your clothes with its rough tongue, it is simply doing what it would do to other cats that it likes. It is trying to groom and take care of your "fur." It may be annoying when you've just put on lotion and your cat comes over and licks you, but they are just trying to get rid of the new "strange" smell.
4. They lightly bite at you
If your cat gently bites at you while you two are cuddling or playing, it doesn't mean that he or she is a little hungry but rather that they love you! A tender bite is a well known sign of affection among cats!
5. They rub you with their noses
Tender cat noses are not only very sensitive to odors but also to touch. When your cat nudges you with their nose while cuddling, it means to them that they think you smell good in the simplest sense and that you feel good.
6. They blink at you
If your cat looks you in the eyes and then slowly closes their eyes, they want you to know that you make them feel very safe and that they rely on you, because they do not have to constantly worry about knowing everything happening around them.
7. They kick at you
When small kittens are thirsty, they kick at their mother to stimulate the flow of milk through the so called "milk kick." If your adult cat does this as he or she curls up in your lap, then it means she feels comfortable and secure - just like when they were a kitten!
8. They purr
Purring is the feel good sound of cats. If they are purring while you are petting them, you know that you are doing everything right.
9. They let you pet their belly
The tummy is the most vulnerable place on a cat's body. Your cat let's you tickle their belly, because they know you will not hurt them. The fact that they just roll on their backs and stretch comfortably in front of you means you have achieved the highest level of trust.
10. They split the spoils of their hunt with you
Ok, so a dead mouse is not really what you wished for, but when a cat brings you a dead animal, it means that they want to take care of you. Obviously, you are not catching any mice yourself, so your cat thinks that they need to help you, so that you don't starve to death!
