What does it mean when a cat licks its face?
Cats may seem aloof, but they actually adore their owners and will sometimes express their affection by licking their faces. In such cases, owners can reward them with treats like dried fish or cheese.
Cats are quite jealous and possessive. When they notice their owner's attention shifting to other pets, they will actively rub against their owner's face and lick it to assert their "ownership." This is a sign that the cat is jealous.
Cats are very clean and hygienic animals. When they find that their owner's face has a lot of bacteria and dirt, they will lick their owner's face as if they were cleaning their own fur. This is because the cat thinks its owner's face is too dirty.
