Do You Study Your Cat's Expressions?

**Bengalz** · 06-30-2006, 10:46 PM

Yes I am a bit weird ... but I love watching a cat's expressions! As I am getting to know Eve, her different expressions just fascinate me. The attached photos are mostly her "serious" side.

Now, if I could just understand everything that goes on in that complex feline mind ... one can only hope!

Anyone else out there with a curious mind??

Betty - it might not be to everyone's taste...but there is a site called mycathatesyou.com which ascribes thoughts to the photos of a cat's expressions.

They can be a bit rough - but some are just TOO darn funny!

It is assumed that the cats' thoughts focus on hating the 'pink monkeys' they live with...but the variations are, er, varied....

Lut,

Your girls are all so precious and yes, the different expressions are intriguing. Little Snoopy's sweet face just melts my heart. She has such a look of innocence.

I recently read a book written by Jeffrey Masson titled "The Nine Emotional Lives of Cats". Although I'm not sure I agree with all of his opinions, the read was both interesting and entertaining. He has spent a lot of time observing and being involved in the lives of his kitties and brings so much insight into how they "may" feel about things in general.

Personally I think cats are somewhat of an enigma and that's so fascinating to me. (I would still like to know some of what they're thinking though!)

Giz gets a certain look when she is bored and wants to get into something.. I can always see it coming...

My Cats do have various looks.
I want a treat, pick me up, im lonely, and tell those Kittens to go away.
The last is a Tubby 2 specialty.
I refuse to believe My Cats ever hate me.
They might be impatient, but hate?
Never.
