Aside from getting your home ready for a new pet and adjusting your schedule to be sure you&#8217;ll always be there for them, you also have to worry about whether or not you and your are going to get along. After all, you never know what could happen! Although pets generally love their owners, they can sometimes be\u00a0so moody and predictable\u00a0that it can be hard to get the right relationship going. If you&#8217;re unsure about what\u00a0cat behaviors mean your cat likes you, there are some signs you can look for that will give you an answer.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-246\" src=\"http:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/519d4b0d-af62-482a-963c-5ff5f900bd77-getty-109120510-300x213.avif\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"213\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/519d4b0d-af62-482a-963c-5ff5f900bd77-getty-109120510-300x213.avif 300w, https:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/519d4b0d-af62-482a-963c-5ff5f900bd77-getty-109120510-768x544.avif 768w, https:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/519d4b0d-af62-482a-963c-5ff5f900bd77-getty-109120510.avif 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Cats might seem mysterious, but they&#8217;re pretty easy to read when you know what to look for. They engage in specific behaviors when they feel comfortable around someone, and you can look out for those to see how they feel about you. If you read through the below and come to the conclusion that you and your cat definitely aren&#8217;t vibing, there&#8217;s good news: you can always do things that will\u00a0allow you to form a bond with your cat. It doesn&#8217;t need to be a bad relationship forever! A little patience and effort could ensure that you and your cat become true besties.<\/p>\n<p>Another thing to keep in mind is that your relationship may need some time to form into something special. Cats generally need more time than dogs to get used to someone, as well as a new space. So don&#8217;t worry &#8211; all hope is not lost! Here are a few ways to tell that you and your cat are compatible:<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-247\" src=\"http:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-09-211528-246x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"246\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-09-211528-246x300.png 246w, https:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-09-211528.png 629w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 246px) 100vw, 246px\" \/><br \/>\nOne surefire way to tell if your cat feels comfortable around you is if they knead when they&#8217;re near you. When a cat kneads, they&#8217;ll use their claws to push in and out on a soft surface, like a blanket, or maybe even your lap. Kneading is a sign that they feel relaxed and happy, and\u00a0it&#8217;s a way that they say &#8220;I love you.&#8221;\u00a0If your cat does this when they&#8217;re cuddling with you, they are definitely happy to be around you.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-248\" src=\"http:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-09-211435-297x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"297\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-09-211435-297x300.png 297w, https:\/\/starloop.site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Screenshot-2026-08-09-211435.png 623w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 297px) 100vw, 297px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Getting a new cat is exciting, but it can also be really stressful.
