How To Tell If You Have A Confident Aggressive Or Fearful Cat
Much like human behaviors there are a number of traits and forms of body language a cat will exert that tells you the type of temperament they have. It is always best to understand your cats’ temperament in order to effectively coexist with you as well as other cats. One thing you can be certain of your cat will have a variety of behaviors depending on specific situation; it’s your job to understand what this body language means so that you can provide the proper attention, discipline if necessary and treatment and/or care.
Cats are loving creatures and provide a lifetime of affection and companionship to their owners. The old adage that says “You don’t own your cat your cat it owns you” may seem true in many instances when it comes to living with your pet cat and the number of behaviors and personalities your cat has. More importantly you want to better understand your cats’ natural traits and here are some possible traits that may tell you if you have a confident aggressive cat or one that is timid and fearful.
