Cat Insider

You’ve seen the viral videos of cats catapulting into the area when they encounter a cucumber, but the real question is: what’s the deal with cats and cucumbers?

Cats can feel a range of emotions and can recognize these emotions in humans. Their ability to sense and react to their owner's feelings, including sadness, highlights the deep bond shared between cats and humans.

Understanding how kittens express trust and affection towards their human caregivers is key to nurturing a deep bond. From the comforting rhythm of purring and kneading to the curious behavior of following you around, these signs reveal a kitten's perception of you as a parental figure or “cat mom.” Recognizing these behaviors is the first step in fostering a lasting, loving relationship with your cat companion.
