I love this article 😀
That’s the difference between dogs and cats. Cats are positive that the humans are there as their staff and if they tolerate you that means that they love you.
But all jokes aside, if the cat shows you their open belly that means that it truly trusts you. Because cats are most vulnerable on their tummy and they are very sensitive on that area so if they are opening it up for you that means that they truly love you.
But another thing that will show you how much they love you is they check up on you when you are sleeping. That is because in the wilderness cats have to look out for each other when taking a nap.
