Standing On Their Back Legs
Cats look silly if they stand on their back legs, but this behavior actually has an explanation related to evolution. When a predator confronts cats in the wild, the felines would stand on their hind legs to make themselves appear bigger and ward off the threat. Standing back is the best course of action if your kitty stands on its back legs and appears to be acting defensive. However, it isn’t always bad news if cats are standing on their hind legs because sometimes, they do it just to get a treat.

Scratching Stuff
There are cat owners who have horror stories of coming home and finding out their couch has completely been torn apart by their scratching cat. To prevent this from happening, many cat owners purchase scratching posts for their pets. You might be wondering why cats do this but scratching is actually normal behavior that has several causes – it is a way to mark their territory since it deposits their scent, it removes their claws’ uncomfortable dead layer, and stretching their claws and bodies feels good for them. However, if your kitty is destroying your stuff, try getting a scratching toy for it.
