Cat Behavior (Neko!Levi x Reader)

Chapter 2: Sociability

You sighed and sat down on a chair in front of Levis desk. You looked at the book again and noticed that the cat on the front looked quite similar to Natit, Hanjis kitten. Levi was doing his paperwork again and you smiled as you looked at him. His cat ears were twitching at every little sound and his tail was moving around a lot as well.

"Can you like control it?" you asked, curiously

"What?" he said, looking up.

"Your tail, can you move it on your own or is it like a reflex?"

"If I could control it, I would make it stop twitching. It's fucking uncomfortable. Same with the ears:" and he began writing what looked like a report again.

He was really devoted to his work, even in a situation like this he made sure to finish everything.

You opened the book again and decided to read the first chapter.

1. Sociability

Wildcats are solitary, but their domesticated relatives behavior is much more variable and ranges from wildly dispersed individuals to feral cat colonies. Within groups, there is usually one cat which is dominant over the others.

'Levi would definitely be said dominant cat, you thought and looked at him. Although he seemed peaceful now you once saw him punish a soldier for not cleaning their shoes and that wasn't peaceful at all.' You shrugged slightly at the memory and went on reading.

In a cat colony, every single cat has their own territory. These vary in sizes, but sexually active males tend to have larger Territory and those may overlap with several female territories.

'Territory, hu? He wasn't allowed or actually able to leave his office so that could end badly. Maybe he could show aggression or something as a result? You thought about this for a moment and decided that you would not want to experience that. Sexually active males? You wondered weather the captain was sexually active or not. What did the author even mean? That the male cat was able to reproduce or that he actually did so from time to time? Again, your mind drifted of the book and you thought about all the females he could have possible had intercourse with in the last few years.

Hanji, maybe? No that wasn't even an option.

Petra? Well, she liked him, but he always seemed to ignore her obvious flirting.

Mikasa? No, she was into Eren and really hated Levi.

Christa? Nah, you heard Ymir mentioning the other day how she finally came out of the closet.'

There was no one you could think of so you red on

Domesticated cats mark their territory just like wildcats. This happens in the form of urine spraying, defecation and by rubbing object at head height with secretions from facial glands.

'PLEASE NO! This is too disgusting. Would he – being the clean freak he is – do that? Maybe the face rubbing thing would be okay, but oh god no please don't let the other stuff happen!'

Outside of neutral areas (located between these territories) the territory holder chases away and stranger cats. At first by staring and hissing, then by loud growling and if that is not working, by short but violent attacks.

Short but violent attacks? Reading all this made you think you were going to visit the infirmary more than once in the next few days. Maybe you could avoid it by leaving the room when he began hissing? You giggled slightly at the thought of the raven haired male hissing like a kittie cat at you.

Life in proximity to humans and other domestic animals has led to a symbiotic social adaptation in cats, and cats may express great affection toward humans or other animals.
