A lot of people think that cats work on their own agenda, not paying much attention to their owner – provided they have clean litter, food, and water. Cats can behave in odd manners at times, which can easily confuse their owners and make it really hard to determine what the cat wants. As much as cat behavior can be confusing, there are some ways that you can solve common cat behavior mysteries.
A common behavior that almost all cats do is push their heads into any type of object that will allow them to do it. You’ve probably seen your cat do this before, probably against table legs, TV stands, or another object. This can be noticed more when you have other people who own animals or those with allergies over at your house. When a cat notices this, he will rub his head against the person. In doing so, he will put a touch of saliva on the individual. In a cat’s mind, he owns what he puts his saliva on.
By putting his saliva on something, that object or person will have a familiar scent. Although this can be very annoying, you have to understand that other people in your home are seen as odd or weird to your cat. When a cat does this, he is simply trying to make the visitor belong. When he brushes up against them and puts his saliva on them, he is trying to put his scent on them – which in his mind will mean that they belong in his territory.
Even though marking someone or something with saliva is beneficial to the cat, saliva is one of the most common forms of pet allergies. When someone wipes the saliva off of them, the scent will be gone and the cat will go back and attempt to do it again. Even though it may appear that cats target those with allergies, cats are actually just trying to make the visitor belong at the house. If the guest simply cannot take the saliva, allow the cat to rub himself on their pants leg a few times. Normally, this is all takes for a cat to leave the person alone.
Those of you who an indoor cat should expect the cat to spend quite a bit of time lying near windows. During this time, you may hear your cat make very strange noises or weird movements. You shouldn’t fear though, as he is simply acting out his hunting instincts. Whether it’s another cat or object outside moving about, the cat will see it and simply go into his native hunting instinct.
As most already know, cats love to play. They love to played with, especially with toys. They will pounce on things on occasion, which should always be expected. If you try to prevent this type of behavior, your cat will take a very negative approach and you’ll end up with a lot of broken things in your home. You can always play with your cat using a string, as he will love to chase the string around the room.
The longer you own your cat, the more odd behavior you’ll see him exhibit. Cats behave in strange ways, although they always have a reason for behaving the way they do. If you can understand why your cat behaves like he does, you’ll have no problems keeping him healthy and happy. If you simply pay attention to your cat and the way he behaves at times – you’ll be able to understand him better than ever before.

fisher cat screech
The fisher cat is a North American marten, a medium sized mustelid. The fisher cat is agile in trees and has a slender body that allows it to pursue prey into hollow trees or burrows in the ground. Despite its name, this fisher cat animal seldom eats fish; the name may originate from the French word fichet, which referred to the pelt of a European polecat. In some regions the fisher is known as a pekan which is derived from its name in the Abenaki language.
The fisher cat is a resident of dense forests, and are mostly found in coniferous or mixed forests with high, continuous canopy cover. They are solitary animals and are very elusive. Few ever get the chance to see a fisher, mainly because they are nocturnal. However, fisher cats can sometimes be heard screeching in the woodlands during the mating season. You could possibly hear a fisher cat from afar as they have a loud chilling screech noise. What does a
fisher cat sound like, you might ask, we think it is very much like that of high-pitched child.
fisher cat
The fisher cat is found from the Sierra Nevada in California to the Appalachians in West Virginia and north to New England (where it is often called a fisher cat), as well as in southern Alaska and across most of Canada. Fishers are present in low density in the Rocky Mountains, where most populations are the result of reintroductions. There is recent evidence, however, that a Montana population persisted in a refugium despite extensive fur trapping in the area during the 1800s and 1900s.
Fisher cat's population have declined because of loss of their natural forest habitat and, in the past, because of the fur trade. They have the reputation of being shy and secretive, and they are difficult to breed in zoos. They have a tendency to hide deep in wooded areas. In some locales, however, particularly in northeastern North America where forest habitat is recovering near towns, fishers seem to be habituating to human presence and are now seen more readily; there have been reports of them entering suburban areas and scavenging for rubbish, and occasionally attacking domestic animals.
Sometimes, the fisher cats will attack on our domestic cats so be careful if you hear one screeching near your home.

Some house cats are more than 20lbs-like the Maine Coon, a large cat breed. Fisher's tail makes up a large part of its length. And yes, Fishers cat are the largest specie of Marten.
Fact about fisher cats
The fastes north american animal in the tree's
The fastest member of the weasel family
The only consistent predator of porcupines
One of nature most efficent predaotrs on land
Be grateful you guys can see these things in real life
most people never see them...
They make the most god awful noise at night like murdering children. It is high pitched and screaming like sound. They ate the ladies dog next door.
Friends of mine live out in Barrington, Rhode Island and hisy parents own a field. He don't even wonna leave his German Shepard outside with those fisher cat and even worst when you heard his screech.
They may not eat german shepards but they attack and injure and even kill dog sometimes, just a couple weeks ago I read of a fisher attacking and severely wounding a german shepard and another injured a Labrodor Fishers may be as small as a cat but they are very vicious animals that can and do hurt dogs much bigger than themselves.
Friend of mine own mini schnauzer that got attacked by one of those fisher cat.
I live in CT and have woken to them in my back yard making a terrible sound. Almost like laughing and screaming. Then I turn the flood light on and these are what I see. We have so many of these fisher cats in my area.
Incredible footage, filming a wild one is a feat. These animals are related to wolverines, so I believe it that they can take on a dog and win. If they are attacking dogs, chances are the population is too high, and they are desperate and starving. Trap a few, you can make good money from them and help those that remain in the process. Use raw meat for bait in a cage trap. But check your local laws first.
