I've noticed that Dinah will lick ScatCat when he tries to play with her. This doesnt happen all the time, but often, while they are playing, she will lick him a few times, then play, then lick, then play. Why does she do this? What is she saying?
Yup! CJ and Billy do that all the time! I guess that's why we ended up with two more little kittens!Originally Posted by coaster
She likes him!!
Sounds like they're just playing to me... that's how cats play. CJ will hiss at Billy all the time, then the next time I see them, they're konked out wrapped around each other.Originally Posted by DinahCat
If she likes him, then why does she growl at him all the time? He wont leave her alone. I swear, he's a little pest. They fight as often as they play at this point. One minute she is licking him, a few later, she's growling. What's up with that?
Sounds like Dinah is wanting to be the dominant one, and rightfully so, I think. She is older, and she did come to me first.Originally Posted by BigOrangeMenace
Its a dominance thign toowho ever licks the other the most wins... and one will growl if it doesnt like being dominated, or if it wants to dominate the other and the other wont sit still
this was posted on a post in behavior a while ago, but I remembered it.Yay!
Elliot and Aerowyn do this also, they seem to be equal in the dominance department though...
