I just winked at my cat and he winked back?

I just winked at my cat because I love him and I think he is cool and he was sitting on the floor about 2 metres away from me and he looked me right in the eye and purposefully winked back. Why is this?

Answer 10

Awwww, that's really sweet, you must have a close bond with your cat!

Sometimes when I yawn at my cat, he yawns back at me, which always makes me smile. He even makes a funny squeaky noise when he yawns, just like I do - I'm sure he picked it up from me!

Actually, I'll try winking at my cat tonight, too - hope he winks back at me...
