There is a stereotype that cats are cold and aloof. I photograph cats and I want to show that they are capable of a range of emotions, from serious to silly and everything in between.

Cats, of course, have emotions just like all mammals (and animals in general) but they don't express them using their facial muscles as much. They use their whole body and tail a lot more (compared to humans). You would be able to tell much more about the emotion the cat is feeling by looking at their posture rather than face. They show anger and even disgust pretty well by wrinkling their nose, tho. :)

Of course they do... My one cat has even cried when I moved and for the first few nights she would start crying in the hall. I'd have to get her and put her completely under the bed covers to sleep beside me! It was heartbreaking to hear those cries!

Oh course they have emotions but are shown mostly when they talk to you. Also they have souls.

Cats certainly do have emotions, but they'll show them more through their body language than their face, which we misinterpret because of our human prejudices about facial expressions. For instance, most Persian cats will appear grumpy, just because they have this flat face (deformed by us, humans, through silly breeding selection). The first cat shown is not confused, he only has a bad squint. Cats with dilated pupils are either attentive or excited. The red tabby with half-closed eyes is not seething, he may just be meditating. Etc.
