Cats ears are sensitive and when you pet them, it feels good and makes them happy, so they purr. You have to be careful, though. If you put too much pressure on their ears, you could end up hurting them, and they might lash out because of that.

The domestic cat is a member of the cat family and happens to be the smallest in the cat family. Domestic cats have the long tails, claws and teeth like their big cat relatives. All domestic cats share similar features to their relatives in which they are very agile and have finely coordinated movement. It is believed that the Ancient Egyptians first domesticated cats.

Cats, the four-legged, furry friends that are present in millions of homes across the world, have a long and complex history that dates back thousands of years. All domesticated cats that live today are descended from the Near Eastern wildcat. This cat is believed to have been domesticated soon after the development of agriculture around the Fertile Crescent in the Middle East, around 8000 B.C. Humans and cats developed a mutually beneficial relationship where cats would hunt rodents and other vermin that would attack grain supplies and crops, and humans would give them a safe place to live, mostly free of larger predators. Cats are an animal that self-domesticated themselves by lessening their aggressive behaviors to adapt to living with humans. Cats would perceived differently in many different cultures and the way people reacted to the presence of them changed over time.
At first I thought that the only reason cats’ purred was because they were happy and content. I now know that that is only partly truth. Cats may purr more often when they are happy, but they also purr as a way to show distress and to heal themselves, as well. I guess the only way for us to know the reason why they are purring, is for us to pay attention to how they are acting. If you really want to know why your cat is purring, just pay attention and you might just be able to tell
I like cats. Cats have been biologically proven to use purring as a medication. Quite oddly, a cat’s purr vibrates at a tone that speeds up the healing process. Because of this, a cat purrs when it is hurt so it can regenerate faster, and a cat also purrs to show that it is content. Is that not cool?
Cats are fun to have but also are a lot of work they rip curtains, scratch wood and jump on shelves. But they also are fun because they curl up with you and play with you.
Another important part of a cat's behavior is that they typically misinterpret an owner's reaction to its misbehavior.

Should the cat live in the wild, its mother will feed it mice and other types of prey. Growing up on mice and other wild catches will in later years have the cat become a predator. Whereas should the cat grow up in the comfort of a home an under the protection of the cat owner, they will learn not to prey because they will always have a source of food. Cats sleep just about 70% of the time, this allows their body to grow faster than most other animals. They can survive in just about any weather especially with their survival instincts. .
I enjoy playing with my cats in my spare time. I make inventions for my cats such as automatic cat feeders, this way I can be lazy for a couple more minutes.

They have extremely powerful senses able to detect the smallest changes in heartbeat or temperature, giving them the ability to detect fatal illness while at home, and without having a professional healthcare official on scene. There have been cases of cats acting strangely around people right before heart attacks or strokes. Cats also provide exercise, entertainment and fun.
The main difference between cats and dogs is their history and background. Before dogs became pets, they hunted in packs which means dogs now love company. Cats are considered more of as loners and love to spend time alone. Dogs are known to be as one of the smartest pets because they are capable of understanding humans and their commands. On the other hand, cats aren’t as social as dogs, it’s harder to get them to interact with their owners. Dogs are more likely to be obedient and ready to be trained, dogs are so smart you can teach them tricks such as to shake your hand, play frisbee, or even to stand on their hind legs. Cats want no part in learning anything taught by a human for example: Dogs will come when called whereas cats will stare because they do not want to respond to directives.. Dogs are also social and enjoy interacting with people, they can also become very loyal to their owners but cats enjoy being alone and would rather lay around than learn to do anything. Dogs are
