Tail Flicking & Purring
I read somewhere that when a cat flicks its tail, it means he/she is irritated. But what could it mean if the cat is purring at the same time.
For example, when I crouch down to the ground, Cheddar almost always comes running and lays down underneath me, between my feet. He's purring away with his paws pressed up to my leg, kind of reminds me of what my dogs do sometimes. I pet him gently along his back, closer to his bum as I found it keeps him from getting over-excited. But then I notice the tip of his tail flick as his body is still lax and calm, purring loudly. How do I interpret this?
