Sometimes it is difficult to understand whether cats are fighting or playing.
According to a study published in a Scientific Reports article, some behavioral categories can be distinguished: wrestling, chasing, crouching, immobile postures, and vocalizations.
If the cats are not yet adults and are silently fighting, most likely they are just playing.
However, chasing and vocalizations are markers of a fight.
However, wrestling can also have both positive and negative contexts. For example, were claws and bites involved.
In addition, the game can also develop into a fight. In this case, the animals become more noisy and periodically freeze, looking at each other with or without vocalization.
