Although pleasing to you, scented candles can overwhelm your cat's sensitive senses. Choose mild or frangrance-free varieties and always monitor lit candles in your home.
Scientists say that cats do reach deep sleep where they experience rapid eye movement (REM) and many cats move their paws, claws and whiskers, and change positions. Some even make small noices or snore.
One of the most sensitive parts of your cat's body is its belly. For a cat to lie with its belly completely exposed or to allow you to rub its belly is a huge compliment and statement of your cat's trust in you.
