Have you ever wondered why cats behave in this way?
It’s likely that many cat lovers have encountered this behavior.
You may be surprised by the reason…

Although they are not renowned for being overly cuddly, when they do, it is very special.
Cats have a way of showing their affection, and one of the most frequent expressions is rubbing up against you.
Cats genuinely mark you as their own when they brush up against you.
Scent glands can be found on a cat’s face, paws, tail, and other body regions.
They are spreading their aroma on you when they rub against you.
They are claiming you as their own by doing this as a show of affection. They can use it to signal to other cats that you are off-limits.
They are telling you that you are mine in this way.
But cats also rub up against you to form a bond with you, so it’s not only about demarcating their area.
They seek to build a relationship with you.
In conclusion, cats are affectionate as well as playful creatures.
One of the most frequent ways they show their love for you is by rubbing up against you.
