Luna does some extremely interesting things to me and I've been wondering what they possibly mean. I'm assuming she is talking in her own way to me and I'd love to know what she is saying
Does anyone know of any books that tell about cat behavior meanings? Or maybe you possibly know what she is saying....
First off, she wags her tail, yes WAGS her tail at me just like a dog!! I've never seen a cat do this before!
Also, she likes to bonk heads with me, lol, she will reach her head out to me and close her eyes and if I bump her face with mine you can tell she just loves it!! And she will wake up from her nap and start calling for me and once I say something to her and she seems me, she'll go back to sleep. Or if she can't find me in the house she starts calling, not just regular meowing, you can tell she is actually calling for me.
She also likes to groom me and also my Cresteds. She is also extremely attatched to one of my Cresteds and I will wake up in the night to the sound of her under the covers smacking and sucking on my Crested

Anyway, she just does some things I've never seen cats do before and I'm curious if it is a Sphynx thing and what her little signs mean.
Thanks for the help!!

This is her giving you kisses and telling you she loves you... it's very cute... Lucky is very affectionate like that too

And she will wake up from her nap and start calling for me and once I say something to her and she seems me, she'll go back to sleep. Or if she can't find me in the house she starts calling, not just regular meowing, you can tell she is actually calling for me.
Yep - she is calling for you... Lucky sometimes scare me to death - I think there is something wrong, then when I get to the living room, there she is, next to her turboscratcher or another toy as though she was saying: wanna play??? She also does the same thing when she comes to bed at night: She will jump on bed, and will meow kind of loud, to announce "I am here"... She will stop, look at me, and wont move until I acknowledge her presence with words or a rub.

Awwwww, she loves you
! What you have described are some common behaviors cats share amongst their family, ones they love. Not all cats head butt as a sign of affection, but those who do are expressing their love and sharing their scent. The crying when waking up I have experienced with a couple kitties. Sweety sometimes had nightmares and would cry loudly till we comforted her that she was ok and we were there for her. Maia will sometimes wake up crying for me and as soon as I answer, she is comforted and goes back to sleep or comes running for some loving! Maia is a big talker, and I mean big talker! She doesn't meow for no reason, but she has full conversations with me and also will give a call out if shes looking for me......For example if I feed her in the morning and then jump in the shower, when shes done eating shes giving a shout out looking for me!
