If you (or someone else) has angered your cat, and you see your cat’s back arch up like the Arc D’ Triomphe, then you need to defuse the situation quickly, as that is a cat’s final warning before it attacks something or someone.

When a cat arches its back, it is not just to indicate extreme anger or extreme fright…doing this also makes the cat appear larger and more intimidating, as this is usually done in tangent with a cat’s ears being very far back, and its fur standing on end…a cat looks quite deranged when it is in this position usually.

So, to avoid your cat doing this, try to keep your cat away from situations that could cause a cat to initiate this form of self-defence, and if you do, everything will be fine!
