Why do cats raise their bums when you pet them?
A classic example is when a cat puts its back all the way up and stands sideways to the threat – a cat with their back arched in this position is telling you they’re terrified. When a cat’s back is arched, their hair often stands up too. (The term for hair standing up in this way is piloerection.)
How do cats show dominance to humans?
Cats purr whenever they’re happy, even while they’re eating. Sometimes, however, a cat may purr when they’re anxious or sick, using their purr to comfort themselves, like a child sucking their thumb. Growling, hissing or spitting indicates a cat who is annoyed, frightened, angry or aggressive.
