15 Ways Cats Tell You That You're Purrfect For Them

Most people think that cats are aloof creatures that show no affection but this isn't true.

Most people make out cats to be lazy creatures that just want to be left alone and don't care at all for their human family. This perception isn't the truth because cats have their own special ways of showing love. Here are some things that I've noticed my cat and many other cats do to show their trust and love towards their humans.

1. Bringing Presents

For indoor cats (like my own) this means bringing their favorite toys to you or for outdoor cats this means bringing you their hunt (possibly mice and birds).

2. Bunting

This is when cats rub their head against you in order to show that they are comfortable with you and want to claim you as their special human.

3. Slowly Blinking At You

This can also be reciprocated so try to slow blink back at your kitty when they do it to you!

4. Kneading You

5. Purring

6. Rolling On The Floor In Front Of You

This is one of the cutest ways in my opinion of how a cat shows they trust you.

7. Flicking Their Tails Up

8. Rubbing

9. Showing Their Tummy

10. Grooming You

Although most people wont be a fan of this, when a cat chooses to groom you, it comes from a place of love because they want to make sure their human is clean, or at least as clean as them.

11. Meowing At You

12. Gently Biting

13. Sleeping On You

If they choose your lap out of all of the possible comfy sleeping areas, that's saying something.

14. Following You

15. Wanting To Play With You

Taking time to actively play with your cat everyday strengthens the bond between cat and human as well as keeps them happy and in shape.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
