HowDogs Say, ‘I LoveYou!’
Head-Butts —Have you ever had a cat bump their head against yours? These head butts are called “bunting,” and it’s one weird way cats show affection. Slow Blinks —While dogs like to maintain eye contact with our favorite humans, cats are more likely to blink at the humans they love. For cats, closing your eyes in the presence of another creature shows trust.
What’s your favorite way to say, “I love you”? Some people write notes, give gifts, or just say it out of the blue. Dogs can’t do any of these things, so telling our humans we love them can be tricky. This month, Emma and I want to share some of our favorite ways we show our humans how much we adore them! Staring Contest — For us dogs, locking eyes can be a threat, but when we look at a human we love and trust, it’s actually a sign of love! When dogs look at their humans, our brains release oxytocin, a bonding hormone. Leaning —Hugging is a little hard for dogs. So instead, we show affection by leaning against our humans’ legs. Sighing —Depending on the situation, a dog’s sigh can mean a number of different things. But if your dog stretches out next to you or snuggles up in your lap and lets out a long, soft sigh, take that to mean, “I love you!” Affectionate Felines We know some readers are cat people, so we’ve consulted a few of our feline friends to include ways cats show their people love!
Napping on Your Lap — Cats love to sleep, but they’ll only snooze in places where they feel safe. If a cat chooses your lap as their favorite napping spot, it means they are completely comfortable around you.
We hope this give you a little more insight into howmuch your pet loves you!
