Why Cats Wiggle Their Tails

Cat Wiggle Tail
Cat Wiggles Tail
If you have ever owned a cat or the owner of a cat or cats, you must have noticed some unusual tail wiggling by your cat.  Cats do not wag their tails like a dog, but they do much cooler, slower wiggly movement.  If you have ever wondered why a cat wiggles it;s tail, read on.

  • Cat's tail up in the air with a curl near the tip symbolizes that the cat is in a good mood.  This can also symbolize that the cat is loving you and maybe needs a bit of attention, sometimes the curly tail at the tip will come with relaxing purrs from the cat.  Another reason for this curly tail at the tip is out of curiosity. If the cat is intrigued and something has got it's attention, you may get that tail up in the air with that curly tip wiggling.
  • Tail Wagging or Thumping symbolizes that your cat is just not in a good mood.  It is a good idea to just give the cat some space and let it cool off. The harder the thump, the angrier the cat is getting. However, they can also do this when they are happy and engaged in play or hunting. Look for other signs of your cat’s emotions when you see this tail wagging, like growls and hisses. In any case, I wouldn’t get too close.
  • Tail down/no movement - Your cat is trying to be low key and probably wants to be left alone. Think of it like a default non-emotional state. Not happy or angry or sad, just mellow. You will see cats do this if they DO NOT want attention (because if it’s up that’s like waving at someone you like, if it’s down that’s like walking by someone with your head down so you don’t have to talk to them).
  • Tail curled between legs - You cat is scared. When I take my cat to the vet his tail is curled between his legs the whole time because he is just terrified of the vet.

Conclusion
There are a number of reasons for this and they differ depending upon the situation. When a cat greets a family member (particularly their favorite) the tail is held upright with just the tip kinked over to one side. Don't worry, it's not a permanent kink! This is a sign of safety and familiarity, also used when greeting other animals that are known to the cat.

What Cats Do

What Cats Do
Cats Running
Pet cats are part of the smaller breed from the family of felines which includes larger cats such as the jaguar, Lion, Cheetah, and of course the Tiger.  They have the same instincts as their larger brothers and sisters and do just about the same stuff, only on a much more smaller level.

Things All Cats Do

1. Clean Themselves by Licking
There is a saying which goes, "Cleanliness is next to Godliness." But I can assure you that cleanliness is next to 'catliness'.  Cats like to keep themselves sparkling clean by licking their coats of dirt and anything they think will infringe on their suave.

2. Sleep Alot
If you got as much sleep as our feline pets, we would be up probably at least 5 hours out of the entire day. Talk about being the king of dozing off, you have to give it to the cat. Cats will sleep for at least 16-20 hours per day.  That would lead one to ask, what else does a cat do if he sleeps so long? Well lets find out more, shall we?

3. Prey
What? you don't believe that your pet cat is natural born hunter? Well, just let him loose in a nice backyard with a few lizards, small birds or rats and you will see a different side of your kitty you have never seen before. It is built into them, coded into their DNA. Cats are predators and if it was not for domestication, they would have been out snatching up birds, rabbits and other small delicacies for their tummies.

4. Cuddle
Cats love to be cuddles and will seek that special comfort from time to time. Weather it be a large cat or a Small cat. Cuddling is that way of making the animal feel comfort and satisfaction.

10 Most Common Cat Diseases You Should Know About (Info-graph)

9/5/2017

Comments

 
Keeping your kitty healthy and happy are priorities of cat owners and cat lovers the world over. But try as we might, sometimes a cat’s natural curiosity, their environment, or interaction with other cats brings them into contact with harmful or unhealthy factors. When that happens, your cat may become sick and you'll have to determine the best course of action for you and your tabby.

There are several things you can do of course, from riding it out if it doesn't seem too severe to making an appointment with your vet and getting to the bottom of the problem. To that end, one of the most important things you can do is to learn about what some of the most typical illnesses, sickness or diseases are that may afflict your feline friend. 

Learning about the most common cat diseases your cat may get, gives you a heads-up into what you and your cat experience if afflicted by one of them. For example, you can learn about feline leukemia, kidney disease, worms, hyperthyroidism and several others. You should learn about symptoms, what to expect for treatment, the costs associated with it, and more.

Keep Learning

When dealing with any feline illness, the more knowledge available, the better you can make an informed decision. You should learn about the treatments and preventive measures to keep your cat thriving and flourishing for as long as they live.

The Bottom Line

Whenever you choose to bring a kitten or a cat into your home, among other things, you have just become the primary caregiver in their life. The quality of life that your pet has is directly dependent on you, what you feed them, providing a sanitary litter box, and how you interact with them, whether it's playtime, grooming or even common surgical procedures like spaying or neutering. That also means that when a problem occurs, or your kitty becomes ill, it's your responsibility to take care of it.
Learning about the health problems your cat can encounter is one of the best ways to stay in tune with your cat's health needs, which will serve both of you well, for life.
