my cat 'scream' when she was sleeping just now. i think she got a nightmare. do cats dream?

How the scream sound? A nightmare maybe?

just a little bit louder than her normal meows. ah...like how she meows when she is on heat. but her eyes was closed. so i assume she was still sleeping. she didnt know even when i go near her and wanted to carry her.

speedy has no girlfriend lah elf, but he has a little sister kitty.

this morning speedy start jump here jump there ad. run from the staircase go downstair.

is't ok like that? he seem healthy already

and start play with his little sister.

Do cats dream?
As do humans, cats alternate phases of deep and light sleep. Dreaming occurs during the deep sleep phase. During a cat's deep-sleep phase the give-away is movement of his paws and claws, twitching of his whiskers, and flicking his ears. Sometimes he vocalizes.

Why do cats flick their ears when they're asleep?
The cat's remarkable ears each have 30 muscles that control the outer ear, (our ears only have 6 muscles). These muscles rotate 180° so that they can hear without moving their head. Even though they may appear to be sleeping quite often, most of the time they are only dozing, constantly searching the air for sound.

yep its ok.. because male recover faster since it did not involve open surgery like female cat. male only involve a very small cut to take out that small nuts size testicle.

good to hear he is playing now

oowww no gf.. ok lah still got sister beside still young to go candle light dinner with gf eheheh

Wahhh....elfreakz, ur like this person that know everything about cat's..
So i can assume that u r the sifu here...Sila beri tunjuk ajar...

something like Bomoh Kucing

i always explain cat and dog behavior like this la

Dog = treat you as master.
Cat = treat you as co-habitant.



like my kitten last time, had problem cos i fed wrong type of milk - so end up have to give medical treatment la.

so end up i have to wrap the fella up just to force him to drink medicine. i thought sure this kitty won't like me anymore la, but later on seems like no problem and the fella turned out to have good relationship with me.

True

PEOPLE AND CATS ITS A PARTNERSHIP

Is he the LYN member?

True
How bout as Companion....

from my experience - YES. it is.

i notice that dogs usually like to trail the master. go everywhere this la that la. they're literally worshipping you.

cats on the other hand, live in the house like another human. i mind my own business, but i come find you when i feel i like to have your company. so to call a cat selfish would akin to like calling a human selfish, cos we're like that also to begin with. well, that's not to say cats don't trail you. mind trail me up the stairs and all, often almost tripping me.

anyway someone else once put it something like this

to a dog, you're the person who feeds it - therefore you're a deity! (eg the person who brings food to me)
to a cat, you're the person who feeds it - therefore it is a deity! (eg slaves prepare food for king)

sounds logical.

a lil bit companion. but dog is a fully companion. cat won't accompany you, but you are the one accompany them. in other words, you are the slave for them, they are the king and queen. you work for them.

it's very sweet sometimes that they'll actually come to you just to sit / rest on or next to you. probably for their self-gratification purpose but then it's still nice.

and they're damn fun to play with........ i'm still waiting to get a cat again, previous one went on his own adventures. i miss him.

Hi goldfries...what cat do u want?u want a pure breed or what? just ask..

for me, no need pure-breed wan la. any cat will do, as long as look nice.

prefer short hair, grey color. if not brown / white / beige also can. prefer not black. prefer the type like in elfreakz's signature. those eyes.

aiii...why u do not want a black cat?
