6 Ways That Cats Talk With Their Tales:
1. Vertical Tail
He likes you - maybe. If his tail is completely straight, the cat is thrilled to see you, but a tip tilted into the shape of a question mark says the verdict on your character is still out.

3. A Lowered Tail
He's not taking any chances. If his tail is lowered and fluffed out, this cat's afraid. In surrender, he tucks his tail between his hind legs.

5. A Wagging Tale

6. An Arched, Bristled Tail
He's all set to duke it out. The angry cat bristles his coat to scare off enemies. He may take a swipe at you if you try to interfere.
