How to judge whether the relationship between two cats is good? What behaviors are there?
How to judge whether the relationship between two cats is good? Cats are animals with complex emotions, and their feelings are also complex. How to judge the emotional state between two cats? This article will introduce how to observe and judge the emotional state between two cats.
1. Observing behaviors
Cats' behavior is the most direct way to express their emotions. Observing their behaviors can lead to some conclusions. If there are more contact behaviors between them, such as kissing, stroking, and gentle grappling, these all indicate that the relationship between the two cats is good. If there is fierce grappling behavior or aggressive behavior, it means that the emotional state between the two cats is not very good.
2. Observation space
Cats are sociable animals. They will allocate space in a certain hierarchical order. Observing the space allocation between two cats can lead to some conclusions. If there is no obvious difference in space between two cats, but sleeps together and plays together, it means that they have a better relationship; if there is a clear boundary between the space between two cats, such as one cat sleeps in one place and the other cat sleeps in another place, it means that there is a certain contradiction between them.
3. Observe the interaction
Observe the interaction between two cats, and you can also judge the emotional state between them. If two cats interact but do not have aggressive behavior, it means that they have a better relationship; if two cats interact with each other, it means that they have a bad relationship.
4. Observing breathing
Observing breathing between two cats can also obtain some information. If the breathing rhythm between two cats is consistent when they are together, it means that their relationship is better; if the breathing rhythm between two cats is not consistent, or one cat keeps interrupting the breathing of the other cat, it means that their relationship is not very good.
5. Observing the sense of smell
Observing the sense of smell between two cats can also obtain some information. If the two cats often contact with their noses, it means that their relationship is better; if the olfactory contact between the two cats is reduced or interrupted, it means that their relationship is not very good.
Generally speaking, by observing the behavior, space, interaction, breathing and smell between two cats, you can roughly judge the emotional state between them, but it should be noted that the emotional state between different cats is changing, and we must observe their behavior frequently to avoid accidents.
