The cat's milk is an action that refers to the cat crawling, kicking around vigorously with its two front paws, as if it were a horse and a chicken, and its stomach gurgling. To put it simply, it is the cat to use its front paws to carry out a left and right "step in place" action on the owner's body. Because there are meat pads on the cat's paws, cats generally do not stretch out their paws when stepping on milk, so when the cat steps on the owner's milk, it is like massaging the owner, which is very comfortable.
Cats' behavior of stepping on milk can mean different things. On the one hand, stepping on the milk may be a sign that cats miss their mothers, which is an instinctive behavior of them, especially for very small cats. When the kittens are asleep, they will also do this when their mother is not around, which shows that they miss their mother very much. On the other hand, stepping on milk may also indicate that cats are very dependent on their owners, and many cats will step on the milk on their owners. This shows that in the subconscious, the owner has a good and intimate relationship with it, and they will have this kind of behavior, similar to treating the owner as their mother.
