One peculiar habit you may have noticed is headbutting, also known as bunting. The cat will touch their head to you, other cats in the home, furniture, or other pets.
Cats enjoy sleeping but are also very social creatures who like to play. However, a cat can play too much, they can become over-stimulated, and their play can also become aggressive if not appropriately regulated.
Cat’s meow to their humans to get their attention. They have several different meows to communicate different wants or needs. The chances are that the cat’s meowing before jumping is to alert you to their movement or intention.
Cats are a lot more social than we generally think and require socialisation from an early age. If a cat doesn’t have appropriate socialisation between three to sixteen weeks old it can develop some abnormal behaviours, as it won’t know how to behave with others.
