Softest cat parts

Takayuki - 23 Nov 2004 08:13 GMT I was wondering if people had any opinions on what part of their cat is the softest? To me, the cat parts that feel softest are the parts where the fur is dense, flat, fine, and all facing in the same direction. On Betty, those parts are:
1. On top of her paws. 2. Between the ears.
and
3. The upper part of her throat, underneath her chin.
Those are among the best areas for smoochies!

Cleopatra: all over Amelia: tummy and top of head Tabitha: nose fur and ears Sammy: tummy, top of head Harri: tummy
Harri is the only one of the kitties that likes tummy rubs.

Piggybacking: Dan, how is Harri getting along with your other cats (and they with her)? I love the mind-picture of a trucker walking a little cat on a leash (or a little cat walking the trucker).

Harri did a lot of hissing and growling, but that's to be expected since she's so tiny. I must say, after spending so much time with baby Harri, my baby Sammy looks HUGE!
Cleo was the only one to hiss back at Harri, but nobody took any swipes at anyone else. I should be getting back home this afternoon, and this time I'll be staying for 3 days. So we'll do the for-real introduction work over those next 3 days.

He's got rabbit fur. The fur on his cheek pads is very thick and dense, so that's very soft. Probably from getting so much scritching there...stimulates the hair growth ;-) He's also got the softest downiest tummy fur. Really, the only part that isn't super soft is this thin line of fur right down the middle of his back. That's his ridge and he can puff it up. But the fur there's just a tad coarser than the rest of him. -- Britta Sandpaper kisses, a cuddle and a purr. I have an alarm clock that's covered in fur!

Shame, its so soft and well insulated :-) I have similar problems here. If I kiss Betty too much on the throat, she'll back off with a "mruff" sound, then headbonk me, as if to say, "On TOP of the head, not underneath!"

On Emily and Sophie, it's their tummies - also the best areas for smoochies. On Martha, it's her furry butt. There, smoochies are definitely out!

I remember the first time he pooped, I'd had im for about 2 - 3 days before he finally did, and when he did, boy did he ever! And he screamed his fuzzy caterpillar-head off when he did it, too. He did it in three statges, stage one was pretty firm, kinda like a tootsie roll (but smaller, a bit softer, and a whole lot stinkier), stage too came out like peanut butter (didn't semll like it though), stage three was all that he had left, and it was really stinky and smooshy, and he didn't like me messing around back there, so he kept trying to hide 'it' with his tail, hence got all that stinky goosh in his tail. Poor little bugger worked so hard on that, he fell right to sleep afterward!

Seanette Blaylock - 23 Nov 2004 16:44 GMT Takayuki <Takayuki9z@yahoo.com> had some very interesting things to say about Softest cat parts:
>I was wondering if people had any opinions on what part of their cat >is the softest? To me, the cat parts that feel softest are the parts [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >3. The upper part of her throat, underneath her chin. >Those are among the best areas for smoochies! On Felix, it's definitely his tummy. :-)

For both Eros and Oscar, the softest part is an area just behind/below the ears. On Eros there was a noticable difference in the quality of the fur. Oscar is pretty much soft all over, although the top of her head is incredibly soft.

To me, the cat parts that feel softest are the parts [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Those are among the best areas for smoochies! Nina is a little powder puff all over. But her softest fur is on the top of her head, where the light and dark fur makes a lovely, very complicated diamond pattern, under her chin, and down her white shirt front.
Cesca is sofest around her head and neck and over her shirtfront. She also has a very silky soft coat down her back. It's impossible to resist stroking her.
Pan still loves his ear scritches and chin rubs, and he'll flop over and let me give him a tummy rub now and then, too. His coat is not what it used to be, though, although he's still pretty glossy for an old fellow.
The late beloved Isadora had a wonderful plushy thick coat, and it was a pleasure to stroke her almost anywhere. She was not fond of having her paws handled though.

(Touching her belly causes EXTREME BLEEDING--she looks soft, but after various surgeries, belly-touches get you BIT and CLAWED.)
Smokey: Belly, cheeks.
Tyche: Kinda wiry-furred all over, but has a nice soft throat.
Kumani: Cheeks, throat.

I agree with two of those :) On both Gossamer and Jeeves: 1. the backs of the ears 2. the tops of the paws 3. the curve of the throat (Gossamer has her only pure white spot just below there - it often looks like a little heart)

Denise Clere - 26 Nov 2004 14:31 GMT her tumm-tumm. I was wondering if people had any opinions on what part of their cat is the softest? To me, the cat parts that feel softest are the parts where the fur is dense, flat, fine, and all facing in the same direction. On Betty, those parts are:
1. On top of her paws. 2. Between the ears.
and
3. The upper part of her throat, underneath her chin.
Those are among the best areas for smoochies!
