Cats are crying for help by exhibiting the following behaviors:
1. Limping: A healthy cat walks with a light gait. If your cat starts to walk with a limp, like a lame person, it means that the cat's paw may be injured.
2. Becoming very clingy: If a cat that is usually quiet and likes to be alone suddenly becomes very clingy, and it's not asking for treats, it means the cat is "crying for help." It's probably feeling unwell and wants its owner's assistance.
3. Making pitiful noises: If your cat is making more noises than usual, including pitiful whimpers, purrs, or even aggressive howls, this is a distress signal from your cat. Your cat may be in pain and is making noises hoping to get your attention.
4. "Ge You Slouch": If your cat adopts a "Ge You slouch" posture, this is abnormal. It may indicate a skeletal condition. The cat adopts this posture to relieve pain after an attack. This is common in Scottish Fold cats or overweight cats.
5. Vomiting and diarrhea: It's normal for cats to vomit occasionally, as this can expel things that make them uncomfortable, such as hairballs. If your cat frequently has soft stools, diarrhea, or vomiting, it may be due to gastrointestinal discomfort. You can try giving your cat some probiotics to help regulate its digestive system.
6. Refusal to eat or drink: Cats normally have regular eating habits. If a cat suddenly stops eating and drinking and loses interest in its favorite foods, it's likely that the cat has some health problem that's causing its loss of appetite. 
Normal behaviors of cats showing affection:
1. If your cat comes to sit next to you or on your lap when you come home to rest, and meows at you, it's trying to be affectionate and wants you to hold it.
2. In the cat world, if a cat's pupils are dilated and it's staring at you, it indicates hostility. However, if a cat blinks one eye and looks at you, as if it's flirting with you, looking adorable, it means it's trying to be friendly and affectionate.
3. A cat's belly is a relatively vulnerable and sensitive area, and it generally won't expose it to strangers, otherwise it would put them in a dangerous situation. If, while you are interacting with your cat, it lies down on its own, exposes its belly to you, and purrs, it's trying to be affectionate and wants you to pet its belly.
