The reasons why cats hold their little hands:
1. In winter, when cats feel cold, they will hold their hands to separate their flesh pads from the ground to help keep warm.

2. If the cat holds its hands and is accompanied by yawning or stretching, it means that the cat is in a relaxed state.

3. When a cat is sick, it will curl up and hold its hands. The owner needs to observe whether the cat is injured or suffering from disease.

4. Cat’s claws are very sensitive. Cats will put their hands up to prevent their owners from touching their pads.

5. When the owner wants to trim the cat’s nails, the cat feels scared and wants to protect its claws, so it will cover its hands.
