My cat tells me when she wants to play. She will scratch a specific spot on our engineered wood floor where the top layer is flaking off. As I have no desire to replace a piece of flooring in the middle of the room, this action gets an near instant toss of whatever toy is nearby. Interesting that female cats form more social, cooperative groups. I wonder if this explains why our female cat seems more sociable and human while our male cat is more aloof.
