psycho-cat / Hannibal Lecter?

okay what does is mean when your cat gets a really wild scary look in its eyes and ... I don't know how to describe it ... like when Hannibal Lecter gritted his teeth and tremblingly sucked in air through his teeth.
What in the world was that about?

he was sitting next to me looking out of the window at some birds. He actually did that sucking-air thing several times, but it was quick each time.

Hi there

I've noticed many cats doing this, it is a natural thing called "flehming" and you might find the following link helpful. He's trying to smell the birds and doesn't realise he can't through the glass! Bless!

And yes, it does make them look just like Hannibal Lecter!

I had a cat like that before. We adopted her from the pound. She was crazy, less than a week after we took her home, I had to bring her back because she attacked my boyfriend. I felt awful but, I couldn't have a cat like that. I have nieces and nephews that come over a lot. That is not normal cat behavior.

Nope, in basic terms attempting to be tangled up for bragging rights and interest on yahoo solutions is distinctive then people who carry out a little of those issues yet extra volume and in no way question it. I additionally do no believe you once you assert, "i'm oftentimes very impolite to women folk human beings my age and act like i'm right into a chick that's into me then I unexpectedly end calling and putting out with them just to determine how depressed they get." Dude, chicks at the instant are not into you. "I decide to be anti-social." the only teenage females which would be into you are the obese pimples coated back ones. "yet those varieties of issues help me replace right into a extra darker and creative tale author" ..calm down Quentin Tarantino. in the experience that your finished tale is genuine, then that's no longer the torturing and all that which makes you "creative", that's the shown fact that your techniques has spots smaller than a classic persons. Your amygdala, hippocampus and different factors of the techniques are screwed up and you have a larger probability of a few wellbeing hazards and can seek for suggestion out of your wellbeing practitioner, even although he might make you mad and you will might desire to seek for revenge on him. i'm hoping you have been mendacity, and stable success in reformatory.

My cat does the same thing looking at birds. I think he's just working himself into an attack frenzy - have never seen it any other time.
