Dogs and cats give us very clear signals about their moods and attitudes. For those of us who interact with them frequently, it’s important to recognize and understand these signals.
Several websites give us excellent graphics to get us started. Below are some of my favorites.
From Jay Padilla’s “Signals” of dog body language on Tuscon Grooming Pets & Grooming Services website (http://www.tucsongrooming.com/?p=23):
From Sarah Hartwell’s web page “Cat Communication – Body Language” (http://messybeast.com/cat_talk2.htm):
From Catster’s “Cat Body Language” article (http://www.catster.com/cat-behavior/cat-body-language):
If this article is helpful & you’re able, please consider sending a thank-you tip/donation. Even small donations will help me keep my business running during the travel industry slump that has brought pet sitting to a screeching halt. Thank you! (FYI, for a sliding scale fee starting at $30, I offer consultations to help people solve their specific cat-related issues. Let me know what I can help you with.)
