It is very entertaining when watching your cat playing around you. However, cat owner should know certain cat behavior. Cat behavior can be described through its body language and communication (since the cat cannot talk to human).

Cats rely mainly on its body language for communications or show its interest. For example as below:

1. Disgust-Showing cat displeasure/comforted of a certain situation by rapidly shaking its paws. For example, after its accidentally stepping into water.

2. Aggression-indicated when the tail is sweeping or swishing, either in mid-air or against a person.  If the cat felt annoyed, it may caused the cat to leave or even start a physical aggression.

3. Kneading-We can observed this behavior when a kitten knead its mother’s nipple to stimulate the milk flows. Some cat may knead(with its paws)onto a person or even its owner shirts. For human point of view, it may shows the cat discomfort or uncomfortable. However, most likely it shows that the cat is happy.

4. Relaxing-Showed by rolling on the side or back or even rolling about. Cat show this behavior when a person (especially its master/owner) walk into the room. This show that cat is in complete relaxations.

Those are few behavior that can we observed. There are many others like its affection, its submission or even how the cats show its interest or its rejection.

By knowing the cat behavior, human can communicate and have better understanding on what their cat mean in above mentioned movement.
