cat poses and confidence levels. sitting up straight: I don’t trust me a little. sitting in a dream: ok, I’ll sit here for a minute. sitting crouched down and bending my paws: I’ll sit here but I can still leave! front paws relaxed: actually, I kind of like it here. all paws are relaxed: you seem to be ok. the belly is visible, the eyes are crazy, the back is arched: perhaps I even like us. lying flat on your back: do you want to be my man?
