There are two behaviors that I've noticed in most, if not all, of the many cats I've owned over the years, they'll hold their whiskers far forward if they're getting an especially good chin or head scratch.
The other is the funny tail position on my three legged rescue tuxedo 'Barney'. When he's really happy and looking for some attention he'll walk with his tail extended straight over and above his back, the tip of his tail almost between his ears! It's the funniest thing. Now I know I'll probably be getting some angry comments about this but keep them to yourself please, but sometimes when he does that I'll give his tail a little tug to get his back legs off of the ground. Just a gentle, quick tug that lifts him an inch or two above the floor. He always comes back purring looking for more interaction. He'll more often than not flop down on the floor at my feet and roll over on his back. This is our 'play dead' rub my belly trick. *** A caveat- NEVER actually yank on your cats' tail or lift them by it. Lots of nerves and muscles there that can be damaged.
