According to Our Survey: The Cat Behaviours That Make Owners Laugh and Melt

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to think about how we show love to the ones who mean the most to us. At Webbox, we know that love is in the everyday moments, and we’re kicking it off at the perfect time to celebrate it. For cat owners, that love shows up in small but meaningful ways, checking the home camera just to make sure they’re okay, hiding cat treats around the house for a little surprise while you nip out, or making sure the cupboard is stocked with all of their favourite treats.

And then there’s how our cats show love back. Curling up on your lap while you binge your favourite series for hours, keeping your seat warm the moment you stand up, or following you from room to room. It happens every day in every purr, head nudge, and personal space invasion.

We asked 300 Webbox customers to share a moment with their cat that makes them laugh or melt every single time. A special insight into the love that happens every day through the Webbox Love Club. Here are some of our favourite quotes, straight from the people who know their cats best:

  1. He doesn’t like visitors after 8pm and will literally herd them to the door so he can go to bed” –  Domestic Shorthair owner
  2. “When I do go out, as soon as I come in she races to the door and drops on the floor as though someone has shot her – belly up in the air and ready for tummy tickles.”Persian owner
  3. “One Christmas Eve she ate too much chicken (from the bin) and then we had to take her to vet where we paid £300 to find out she really needed a poo”
  4. “When she gets the zoomies and runs around the bedroom doing parkour”
  5. “I have 2 siamese brothers and if the smaller one is on my lap, the big one will literally sit on top of him to get him to move so he can be there” –  Siamese owner
  6. “My cat will sit staring at me, slapping her lips to tell me she wants treats.” –  Domestic Longhair owner
  7. “When she gets excited, the wiggles she does are hilarious” – Ragdoll owner
  8. “Binx will chase his own shadow and run in circles trying to catch it.” – Domestic Shorthair owner
  9. “He is always making us laugh, hubby gets out of his chair and he jumps in and immediately pretends to sleep” – British Shorthair owner
  10. “Waiting with complete concentration for their Lick-e-licks at exactly the same time every night” – Senior Moggie owner
  11. “Torbi is the house comedian and often makes us laugh with his antics, but he has the most innocent eyes so it’s hard to tell him off if he’s being a bit of a hooligan. They both snuggle up together sometimes which is very sweet and one or both climb on the sofa to snuggle with us most evenings. We give them a lick-e-lix to share after a walk outside and they’ll lick it together like singers sharing a microphone!” – Norwegian Forest owner

  19. “Hazel will (according to my husband) walk on me until I shift & stop snoring, then she cuddles back up to him!” – Moggie owner
  20. “She dolphin dives at our legs when she wants attention” – Devon Rex owner

I always find it very sweet that she wants to be held/carried and then she’ll go to sleep” – Sphynx & Oriental Shorthair Mixed Kitten owner

Because life with a cat is never boring

If these moments prove anything, it’s that cats have perfected the art of being hilarious and heartfelt. One minute they’re doing something that makes absolutely no sense, the next they’re quietly stealing your heart.
