2. Head-Butting (Bunting)
Head-butting, or bunting, is a common behavior where cats nudge their heads against humans or objects. This action is their way of expressing affection and building social bonds. Additionally, it allows them to mark their territory using the scent glands on their heads.
By head-butting, cats not only show trust but also claim ownership of their favorite humans or spaces. This behavior underscores the importance of scent in feline communication and their subtle ways of showing love.
