Hi. We have a young black cat about 7 months old. Any time you place
her on a soft material like a blanket made of wool, she seems to very
slowly be pushing her front paws into the material. We cannot tell if
she is stretching or exercising or just feeling the material. Has
anyone else seen this or can you figure out what she is doing and why
from the video. (about 2 meg avi file)
She still has her claws and only does this on soft material and will
do this for 2 or 3 minutes at a time.  She has a scratching post which
she uses, but is very aggressive with it, but very slow and delicate
with the wool.
Any info would be appreciated.
(not a problem, just curious)

Please reply here or to the email below.

This is called "kneading". Not unusual at all. For info visit this page:
