OK so as a first time cat owner I still get nervous about reading my sweet kitty's body language. So here is a video of her hanging out with me....
Can you kitty body language experts help me out? From what I can tell
- Kneading my foot and leg means she is relaxed and trusting
- Belly to me means she is trusting
- Eyes half-closed means she is relaxed
- Her face on my leg definitely means trusting
- Tip of tail flicking... bad sign?
I went in for more pets of cheek and head after this video and she seemed to love it, plopping down more than once to lay on me. But I stop pets when I notice the flick of her tail in case it means she is starting to get annoyed. She has nipped me once or twice - VERY gently - as if to say "please stop" when I thought I was reading her right.
What did yall think?
