    Behavior:Signal + Action

    Start by observing for 3 days straight. Note each behavior—zoomies, tail flicks, kneading, and staring into space—and record what follows (play invitation, annoyance, comfort). Use a simple log or app to match patterns. Within a week, you’ll translate those signals into the right response: more play, gentle pets, or a quiet retreat.
