Cats have their own daily routine and favorite activities. You can learn a lot about the behavior of your your cat by watching it go about its business.
Work, rest and play: Cats enjoy their sleep- they doze in cosy places for much of the day. In the wild they are mostly active at night. Pet cats too, are often up and about during the night. This is usually when they wander around to inspect and protect their home territory. They may be aggressive towards other cats that come near, hissing and spitting to warn them off.
Curious cats: Cats always like to know what is going on around them. they love to perch somewhere with a good view, such as a windowsill, chair or the roof of a parked car. Many cats sit for hours in front of TV! Even when a cat appears to be dozing, it is actually alert and stays aware of its surroundings. Its sharp senses mean it can detect the slightest sound or movement and is ready to wake up in an instant.
Cat talk: The most common cat sounds are purring and miaowing. Purring is usually a sign that the cat is happy,but sometimes cats purr if they are afraid or in pain. Miaowing is a more demanding noise- your cat might miaow when its hungry or just wants attention. Hissing and growling are sounds of anger or fear.
I have written a post on cats in history on my another blog, which is here.

House can be dangerous places for cats, make sure yours is safe. Here are some do’s and dont’s.
Do’s: Tke special care if your live in a high flat or near a busy road. Keep doors shut and consider putting mesh on windows that are open a lot.
Check that you don’t have plants that are poisonous to cats. Most common of them are: alfalafa,almond, many varieties of cherry, daffodil, misteltoe, marigold etc.
Make sure that everybody in your family puts away potential hazards, such as poisonous cleaning fluids, sharp knives etc.
Buy a scratching post to stop your cat damaging furniture at home.
Fit a cat flap in your door. Cats love exploring outside, where they can get some exercise and go to toilet. Your cat can use the flap to pop in and out when it wants.
Dont’s: Don’t leave electrical cables lying about-tuck them away so your cat can’t chew them and get an electric shock.
Don’t turn on the washing machine without checking your cat hasn’t climbed inside.
Don’t leave human food uncovered on table or units-your cat could jump up and eat it, which is unhealthy.
Don’t display a precious object where your cat can jump up and accidentally knock it off.
