Cats, unlike dogs, keep their feelings to themselves (unless they're pissed). So, this makes understanding your cat's emotions a little challenging. I mean, other than food, they don't really seem to want very much else. The world of a cat is strictly on their terms - they'll come and sit on your lap when they want to (and usually when you need to pee). And those little bodies are capable of hogging an entire bed - so much that you'll be perched on the edge of the mattress with no covers. Sure, cats are hard work emotionally but they're easier pets to own than dogs that seem to need you every second of the day. But when your cat stares at you, what are they thinking? When they stare at the wall, what are they thinking? When they roll around the floor after catnip, what are they thinking? And that's what this fun quiz is all about - deciphering the mysterious language of cats!
