Cats may seem antagonistic, but they do know how to show love in their most subtle yet mischievous way.

In an article by Elena Nicolaou on oprahdaily.com, Rover cat behavior expert Mike Delgado said that cats have a lot of the same emotions that humans do. Like us, cats feel happy, sad, afraid, curious, and even frustrated.

"Some cats are more affectionate than others, or they're more obvious with their affection. Cats can really build trust and a bond," Delgado said.

To show their love, there are cats who sit on your chest, purr on your face, bite your feet, or when they get talkative.

"Some breeds are very active, like Abyssinians, and Siamese are known to be vocal, but as far as like body language and interactions with people, they're general across all cat breeds," he said.

Here are some signs:

Cats treat you like a cat, too. Most often, cats show their affection to their owners by rubbing on them, sleeping beside them, and licking their face the same way they do to other cats.

They slow blink their eyes. This means I love you in cat language.

Kneading their paws. Cats appear to express their affection and flattery when they knead with their paws like a kitten.

Those belly rubs. When cats expose their bellies to you, it is a sign that they trust and feel comfortable around you.

Cat bunting. One way for cats to mark a person their territory is to headbutt them. Cats also circle a person's leg to transfer their scent, identifying them as their safe zone.

When they bring you gifts. Don't be shocked when cats bring you gifts (ex: toys, dead prey), it is a compliment. This only means that they want to share their "catch" with family.

Remember, cats are just like us. They can form connections and relationships the same as we do, even if they don't show it that often.
