What are the physical features of cats?
Most cats have a round head, round eyes, small nose and mouth — very cute. Ears stand up, but folded-ear cats' ears fold down and carry a congenital bone disease, so they're not recommended.

Chow Chows are an ancient, lion-coated breed that is clean, quiet, and loyal, but they are far from easy to keep. Their stubborn independence makes training and walks a challenge, and as a short-nosed breed they overheat easily, drool, snore, and shed heavily while needing costly, careful grooming. They suit calm, experienced owners with patience, space, and budget — not first-time dog parents seduced by the cute 'grumpy' face.

The meaning comes from the situation and the cat's mood; brief arching is normal, but arching that lasts a long time can signal pain or illness.
