It turns out that cats can smile: here's how they do it
It is a common misconception that cats cannot smile.
In fact, fluffy creatures can show a smile. But not the same as a human's.
Unlike people, cats can hardly smile with their mouths. But they can smile with their eyes.
And it is very easy to recognize this smile. Moreover, a person can “smile” at his pet in response.
How Cats Smile
A furry four-legged friend who is happy with everything and wants to show his good mood to a person will probably squint and start blinking slowly.
Cats do not like direct and intent gaze: they consider it a threat.
But squinting and slow blinking are perceived by cats in a completely different way.
Fluffy animals themselves love to “smile” like this, especially when they feel comfortable and safe.
See your pet blinking slowly? Rejoice: your four-legged friend is happy and, perhaps, grateful for your care.
Don't be afraid to "smile" back: squint, look at your pet, and start blinking, but not too fast. The animal will likely "read" this response.
Earlier it became known whether it is true that the color of a cat's fur is related to its character.
