cat behavior is varied. i have 3 cats, all very different. one is friendly and clumsy, one is timid and dainty and one is playful and a bit shy. there behavior with eachother... they all get along well. most neutered cats do. you need to watch out for more aggressive non fixed cats around other cats though. If you are interested in purchasing a cat you should always look for a kitten who is playful and energetic. Although a quiet/docile cat may seem like a good idea, if they are like that as a kitten it usually means there is something wrong with their health.

Behaviour is all about training and attention. If you neglect your cat from an early age, they will become more aggressive and develop bad behaviours. So when someone complains about a nasty cat, dont blame the animal because it is usually the owners neglect or mistreatment which has caused the behaviour in the first place!

Why do cats chatter?

This is a reflex and it is used when cats cannot reach their prey. The movements of the jaw cause the teeth and lips to smack making small noises. That would explain the chattering.Chattering is primitive, instinctive behaviour. It is used to summon other cats, which is paradoxical because the modern cat doesn't hunt in packs. To better understand this behaviour, it is best to look to viverrids (mongoose, civet, genet) which predate cats on the evolutionary ladder.

Are cats related to weasels?

Domestic cats are in fact related to Cheetahs, Lions and Jaguars, but only distantly. Domestic cats and these bigger cat species are in different subfamily, but still fall under the Family Felidae. Domestic cats are in the subfamily (or Genus) Felinae, whereas big cats (Lions, Tigers, Leopards and Jaguars) fall under the subfamily Pantherinae. The Cheetah belongs in the Genus Acinonyx and is the only living species.However, all cats have most of the same instincts although the other animals in the cat family are much larger.Domestic house cats have the type of diet and digestive system as its wild counterparts; sadly, most people feed their cats hard or soft cat food, which most is species inappropriate. Most foods contain too little meat and too many plants to truly benefit a cat. Some outdoor cats do hunt their prey (Mice, Birds) in the same ways as all others of the cat family. All cats get their liquid from their food.
