    Do other cats wink?

    My cat winks at me. She has a habit of doing it at the perfect moment too

    Is she a freak or is this normal cat behaviour? None of my other cats winked.

    Emo cat does apparently. I see it occasionally and DS going nuts laughing when he does. I can't remember my other cats doing it though.

    yes, all three of my cats have done it at various (freakishly appropriate) times...I think they all know something we don't

    Mine winks and also raises an eyebrow at me (well it looks like a raising of an eyebrow), always at totally appropriate times.

    I'm sure I've seen our cat wink. But never at appropriate times- just when it looks like she had something in her eye

    Mine does too.

    She also coos like a pigeon and squeaks. She's a bit eccentric

    My cat winks and blinks, a few cat websites said that blinking is the cat's way of saying ''I love you''. I know that when my cat has been getting lots of pats he looks at me and gives me lots of slow blinks, lol.

    Yep, my cats do.

    Although one of them also bares his teeth and growls like a dog...

    My cat does this too. She loves to play with the bells from around those Lindt chocolate bunny's neck. Normally she is the most timid, gentle kitty but if you try and take her bell watch out!
