22 January - National Answer Your Cats Questions Day

Cats are great at body language, and you’re probably clear on your cat’s desires…most of the time. But what about those times when you’re just not communicating? Here are a few questions we think a lot of cats have about life with humans. Question 1: Why do you keep petting me after I've told you to stop? Question 2: Why can't I have fish at every meal? Question 3: Why do you get upset about me jumping on the counter (or table?)

Why do cats knead? Why do cats purr? Why do cats sleep so much?

Happy cats appear to knead to show pleasure. Cats often knead while being petted, or when snuggling into a napping spot. Your cat may also knead on your lap to show her love and contentment, and then settle in for a pat or nap. A stressed cat may knead to create a soothing, calm mood.

But what if it isn't? What is your answer?
