3) Kneading

Cats knead with their paws as a sign of affection and contentment. It’s a throwback to their kittenhood, where they would knead their mother’s belly to stimulate milk production. So if your cat kneads you, it’s a clear sign they love you and feel safe with you.

4) Following you around

Cats are notorious for their independence, but that doesn’t mean they don’t crave your company. One way your cat shows their affection is by following you around. Whether you’re heading to the bathroom or making a cup of coffee, your furry friend wants to be near you. Soak up the attention and take it as a sign that your cat truly adores you.
