I know it's a silly question, but I wonder if cats are ticklish like
humans. Any views? The closest Emily comes is that if you scratch her
lower back in a certain spot, she reflexively licks herself, but I
think many cats do that. But she know's that I'M ticklish. When I get
out of the shower, she dries off my leg with her little sandpaper
tongue. I always laugh out loud - and I think she enjoys doing that to
me!

I think Barney is, as you can cradle him like a baby forever, UNTIL you
rub/skritch his tummy, then he gets squirmy and wants down.

her wipe out Bunny's world domination.

Oh, yes, yes, yes. Rowdous is in all my catslave years the only one
who
hates to have his belly rubbed, even gently. He loves headscritches
and ear-petting
as well as under-chin and jowl rubbing, but if hoomin hands go
elsewhere he will
growl or cry and get away. I can't see it being anything other than
"ticklish".
