How To Tell If Cats Are Playing Or Fighting

In the world of cats, you can tell a lot about what’s going on by looking at their eyes, listening to their movements, and paying attention to the tail. So if you ever see your cat doing any of the following things, it might mean they’re playing with each other:

1. Look at the eyes.

2. Listen to their movements and meows.

You can tell if cats are playing or fighting by listening to their movements and meowing. Cats are quieter when they are playing, but it’s a different story when they’re fighting: Their sounds will be more aggressive and loud. Cats also meow at other cats for a variety of reasons, including to communicate threats or for attention.

3. Look at the tail.

Look at the tail.

A swishing tail is a sign of play, while a tucked-between-the-legs tail indicates fear or submission. An aggressive cat with an arched back and raised fur (the hair on their back will stand up) may be using aggression to show dominance over another cat or person in their space, so keep an eye out for this posture when deciding whether your cats are playing or fighting.

Cats are adorable and complex creatures, but you can tell whether they’re playing or fighting by looking at their eyes, listening to their sounds, and looking at their tails.

Cats use a variety of sounds to communicate with each other. For example, if one cat is in pain or danger, it may meow loudly. If the cat is happy or excited about something (like getting a treat), it might purr loudly. However, when two cats are fighting over territory or resources like food or toys, they’ll often hiss at each other as part of their aggression display. The sound of hissing is produced by using an “S” sound while breathing through the nose—it’s similar to saying “sssssss.” This can be confusing for people who don’t know how cats communicate because some humans also make this noise when they’re upset about something! But there’s another way to tell if your kitty is angry: look for the position of her ears!

By looking at this, you can tell if they’re playing or fighting. If they look like they’re having fun and making lots of noise, then it’s probably playing. If there are any signs of aggression, like growling and hissing, then it’s probably time to intervene before things get out of hand!
