The Meaning Behind 9 Strange Cat Behaviors

Cats are a lot of fun, but they can also be a bit mysterious. Their unique behaviors are both endearing and curious for many cat owners.

The informational YouTube channel Pet Facts decided to investigate 9 strange cat behaviors and explained the meaning behind them.

They shared the information in a video, saying:

"Strolling around your house like it's their kingdom, relishing their meals, seeking solitude, yet ready for a cozy snuggle when love is in the air, cats are not only adorable they can also indulge in behaviors that could seem weird to us humans. However, what appears unnatural to you, does often have a logical explanation hidden underneath."

In the video, the narrator explains the following 9 cat behaviors:

1. Kneading their paws.

2. Burying or covering their poop.

3. Bringing you gifts.

4. Chewing on things.

5. Drinking from the faucets.

6. 2 a.m. zoomies and cat calls.

7. Licking after they bite.

8. Ignoring your very existence.

9. Making bird noises.

Some of the behaviors are rooted in the cat's natural instincts while others stem from feelings or emotions that cats experience in captivity.
