How do cats behave in the wild?

Cats in the wild can show some of the same behaviors as your house cat!

One example is "scent marking." In the wild, cats will rub each other with their heads to signal that they belong to the same family. You may find that your house cat does this to you!

Cats in the wild also like to sleep in high places. This allows them to see around them and watch out for danger. House cats often like to sleep in high places, too.
