What the owner can tell about his cat's ears: a simple way to determine the pet's condition

Did you know that a cat's ears can signal to the owner of the animal about the current state of the animal?

Straight and open ears

If you see that the cat's ears are straight and open, this means that the pet's mood can be described as "neutral".

This means that the cat at the moment does not care at all what exactly you are doing.

Pressed ears

If your pet has pressed its ears to its head, it is a sure sign that it is angry. As a rule, pressed ears "go with" round, dilated pupils.

When a cat is in this state, it is better not to provoke it to defend itself or attack – in this case, its aggression will quickly subside.

Backward-facing ears

If the cat's ears are turned back, you can be sure that your pet is playing and has turned into a real hunter - this position of the hearing apparatus expresses interest on the part of the cat.

If you see such a sign, feel free to enter into a game with the cat.

Previously we named dogs that get sick less often than others.
