Have you ever wondered why your cat tends to turn around and show us his back in certain situations? the cat makes this gesture to make us understand that he was offended by a reproach he did not expect to receive!

The cat perceives ours voice modulation and therefore manages to grasp if ours tone of voice want to express cheer, a command or irritation and disapproval of something. They also capture the intensity of our gaze very well!

But how do we understand the cat's reaction when we turn to him? It is appropriate to distinguish two different types of behavior that the cat can manifest, if in our tone of voice or behavior it identifies something that annoys it.

For example, if we tend to stare at it insistently, the cat perceives us as a kind of threat, so much so that he could be led to "attack us" and not turn his back on us as an offended cat would do.

Therefore, answering the question in this article, we can say that a cat with its back to us is basically a cat offended, because he picked up in our voice a signal of irritation or aversion for having done something about which he did not expect in the slightest of being scolded.

The behavior that the cat puts in place wants us to understand that it intends to keep a good relationship with us and he does not intend to challenge us, also because he was caught off guard. He also adopts this kind of behavior so as not to show us that he is actually sorry for having received a scolding !.

In a previous article we had also dealt with the behavior that a cat puts in place when it brings a "prey" back to the house and we had reiterated that we were careful not to scold it, because for it it is a signal to express affection.

So here comes the speech we were making; when a cat is scolded for something he actually thinks he is having done a good thing and to show us affection, he will tend to turn his back on us!
