Your cat will use every part of it's body to communicate different messages to you. In this article, we will explore some of the different ways cats use their body language to communicate with us and with other animals.
Posture
An upright posture with the head held high indicates a content and confident cat. When your cat lowers his head and turns it sideways, avoiding eye contact, he is expressing lack of interest and non-aggression. However, when danger is present, a cat's head will move down and it's back will begin arching which is an indication he is ready to attack if necessary.
