What it means when a cat rubs against you
A sign of sincere affection
Yes, your cat loves you in its own way! Rubbing against you is often interpreted by behaviorists as a sign of familiarity and attachment. This gesture demonstrates established trust and affectionate recognition. It’s a bit like giving you a hug… the feline way.
Contrary to popular belief, cats are not cold or distant. They simply express their affection differently than dogs, and this gesture is a sweet and precious proof of that.
