Bonus points for extra contentment if the tip of their tail twitches a bit or curls like a question mark. It also communicates that they are friendly and willing to be interacted with.
So he practices instead by acting out the fatal bite to his kill. A cat whose tail is straight up when they see you or walk around the house is a sure sign that they are happy and content.
Although much less common, some cats will also mark their territory by leaving small amounts of urine, or occasionally stool, on horizontal surfaces. In most cases, the spraying cat will back into the area, the tail may quiver, and with little or no crouching, will urinate. Your vet will be able to determine if your cat is experiencing involuntary tremors that are casing its tail to quiver and hopefully provide any necessary treatement. This way, if your cat doesnt quiver its tail once at the vets, you can show the recording. So when your kitty sits in the window and chatters at the birds, he may be feeling frustrated that he can’t be the hunting critter that he was meant to be. Spraying is the deposition of small amounts of urine on vertical surfaces. Once you have made an appointment, capture your cats tail vibrations on video if possible. Many times, you may notice that your cat’s tail gets puffy or twitches in a special way that accompanies his special chattering noises. Answer (1 of 11): Since cats do not talk, they have other ways of communicating and wagging the tail is one of them. In chattering and squeaking, house cats may be showing their excitement at seeing potential prey, or they may be acting out their frustration in seeing potential prey that they cannot reach. Young kittens in the wild have opportunities to practice and hone this special bite. Cats can deliver this bite quickly and efficiently causing death before the prey has a chance to struggle. Feline behavioral specialists have noted the similarity of the noise to one made by cats delivering a special neck bite when killing a bird or small rodent. That noise is more instinctual than many of us realize. If he is really excited, he might add a vocal utterance that sounds almost like a cry. The noise that results is a cross between lip-smacking and teeth chattering. The cat opens his mouth slightly, pulls his lips back, and then opens and closes his jaws very quickly.
Sometimes when your indoor cat watches “prey,” like birds or a squirrel, through a window, or sometimes just sees them on television, he makes a chattering sound. This desire has little to do with hunger and everything to do with instinct and pure enjoyment. Artificial selection and breeding of cats by we humans have not blunted the urge to hunt. You may think your indoor kitty has no cause to be a grand hunter like his relatives were in the wild, but try telling him that.
