I recently learned about this and now go around passionately slow blinking at every cat I see. These animals are like we don’t know you and you can’t sit with us but I’m still trying.
I know. I have a scar to prove it. My dear cat came on my bed and she looked at me until I fell asleep. Just when I closed my eyes she bit my hand. I guess my hand moved and she attacked it.
That is the look our cats give us when we fail to respond fast enough with treats in hand lol
Hubby ran to the store earlier today and picked up some treats. One was fast asleep and as soon as he came home she went from the bedroom to the kitchen at warp speed as he told her when he left he was getting more treats. lol
Ive seen that look. She wants you lay down perfectly still so she can lay on your chest and look you directly in your eyes from 2 inches away until she decides it’s over.
The first image indicates that you have been acknowledged and your credentials have come into question. The second image indicates that your credentials have been accepted but your clearance may not be sufficient.
The first look captures the disappointment that the new human servant is even less capable than her first barely adequate human servant. The second look is her contemplating how she will make the first human servant pay for her failings.
Looks like she's just asking for some space. Make a good impression! Go make some tuna salad and sneak her a dab before you mix everything. Then just proceed to the couch and chill. Maybe she'll be more receptive to chillage with you afterwards.
She might be confused. My sister and I sound so much alike that even our mother couldn't tell us apart on the phone. Our dogs and kids, when they were little, would just have the most confused looks on their faces. Why is my mother's voice coming out of this other person?
Please please please get rid of the bell. It’s very bad for a cat, it drives them crazy, and it’s very unhealthy. Please do this now and talk to your sister about it. 🙏
If she's giving you slow blinks that's a good thing. That's cat language for "I'm comfortable with you". Staring without blinking is usually a sign of concern or distrust. Though my tuxedo loves snuggling my lap and staring at me... just gotta feel out the cat I guess.
She’s giving you the “I love you” blink 🥰
