Cat Ears Back While Playing. Something has scared your cat when this happens. Cats also may arch their backs when playing.
Watch for these ears the next time you walk in the door, or if your cat is looking out the window at a bird. Use caution around a cat whose ears are in this position. The way a cat plays as she ages may change but the desire to play should hopefully remain throughout a cat's life.
If you live with more than one cat, hopefully, they have a good relationship and spend time playing together.
When a cat has their ears pulled back and down, as if they were disappearing to the back of the neck, it means that the cat is afraid.it could also mean that there’s something your cat hates nearby. For instance, if you are taking your cat to the vet care and he is acting aggressively, ensure that you bring along a cat carrier. But this is not the case. Cats also may arch their backs when playing.
