Does Your Cat Love You? Just Look for These Signs

Masters of both intensity and patience, a cat staredown can be unnerving at first. But if your cat looks at you for long periods of time (without, it seems, even blinking), it can be a signal that they love you. Though it may feel like they’re plotting your demise, they could be just protecting you.

Of course, if they haven’t been fed in a while, it could also be that they’re interested in some food. But rest assured, they can be hungry and love you. They just might love you more when they’re fed.
