Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / May 2005your kitty's 'soft spot'
Where does your cat like to be petted? Mine: Bobby loves belly rubs, hates his head petted Casey especially loves head pets and shoulder rubs > Where does your cat like to be petted? > > Mine: > > Bobby loves belly rubs, hates his head petted > Casey especially loves head pets and shoulder rubs Ming likes to be rubbed/scratched his sides and hips. He'll put his head down between his front paws (looks like he's trying to do a headstand) and purr like a motorboat. Eventually he flops on his side for a bellyrub. Katrina > > Where does your cat like to be petted? > > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Katrina Awww.... cute! Jake likes the soft spot just under his lower lip scratched. Molly hasn't worked it out yet. She can't decide if she likes being petted or not. Will beg for scritches but then squirm away from them.

Weird. He is trying to scratch it also. Molly may like scritches at some time. Maybe a massage? My cats love that when they are really relaxed. They are just like pillows afterwards. > Where does your cat like to be petted? > > Mine: > > Bobby loves belly rubs, hates his head petted > Casey especially loves head pets and shoulder rubs Bandit - her back at the base of her tail (she makes little biting faces when I do this). Demi - under her chin. Jessie - her chest. Sammy - her ears. Hugs, CatNipped > Where does your cat like to be petted? > > Mine: > > Bobby loves belly rubs, hates his head petted > Casey especially loves head pets and shoulder rubs Shmogg loves all around the head and neck and under the chin. He particularly likes that bit in the front of the ears where the fur is thinner. All else is strictly off limits. IBKFergus doesn't stay still long enough for pettins, and if I try to give her any she just bites me. Not hard, and I think its actually more affection that saying "stop it" but still, quiet, snuggly love-in time is not something IBKFergus ever indulges in. After all, there is TP to kill, carpet fluff to chase, Shmogg to torment, Cary to amuse and Fluff to confuse. Busy busy busy..... Yowie > > Where does your cat like to be petted? > > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > Yowie I am sure all cats reading this will admire IBKFergus' restraint. Shmogg is very particular about skitches and that is admirable also! My fluff buds just roll over like dogs to have their bellies rubbed. Shameful. >Where does your cat like to be petted? > >Mine: > >Bobby loves belly rubs, hates his head petted >Casey especially loves head pets and shoulder rubs Sheba loves her face rubbed; although she will accept petting anywhare. Djoser also likes his face rubbed; but will grab my hand and bring it to his face when I try to pet down his back. Robin loves to be petted anywhere, even his belly. But he gets ecstatic when I hold him against my shoulder with his head under my chin and he can schmurgle while i rub his body. -- CATherine > >Where does your cat like to be petted? > > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > -- > CATherine LOL! Cats are soooo sensitive! Djoser certainly has his likes. I love the description of Robin. >> >Where does your cat like to be petted? >> > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >LOL!

I love the way they squint their eyes when they are being cuddled and petted. -- CATherine > Where does your cat like to be petted? > > Mine: > > Bobby loves belly rubs, hates his head petted > Casey especially loves head pets and shoulder rubs Persia loves being scritched under her chin and stroked along the bridge of her nose - she tilts her head back and her mouth falls open and she purrs. Sometimes she likes belly rubs but it must be on her terms - if she rolls over, it's the signal :) Jill > > Where does your cat like to be petted? > > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Jill It is funny how different our cats are! Bobby sometimes likes me to scratch his whiskers and puckers up for it but the nose is off limits. I would love to watch Persia with the mouth falling open. Cats seem to be so sensitive and enjoyment is so apparent -- or visible -- when they are really pleased. > Where does your cat like to be petted? Xoxo - Head and back, mostly head.

You have a lot of kitties! Must keep you busy. I don't know why Bobby doesn't like his head petted. He ducks when I try. Do you have a link to pics of your kitties? How in the world do you keep up with 7? I have a hard time with 2! They demand so much attention from me. But, I do give them a lot so they expect it I guess. >>> Where does your cat like to be petted? >> [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > attention from me.

I love Tom and Your site. I don't have counters on either of our URLs. I wish I did. I always feel like no one ever visits them, even when I'm told that people do.

Lots of things get on my nerves, especially if I'm not feeling well or overwhelmed. But I don't think there was ever a time I wished a cat would go away and leave me alone. People sure. Dogs, sometimes. Cats. I really don't think so. Jo >I'm by nature a somewhat irritable person.

Dogs, sometimes. Cats. I really don't think >so. Since I've been retired and am rarely time-driven, the cats have taught me to slow down and take things easy. There were times though when a cat just wanted attention and I was in the middle of something that I wished they would go away. And naturally, they know just what piece of paper you need and pick that one to sit on. Regards and Purrs, O J (Old John) Gritmon How lovely Victor, I miss Henri being like that, Wilson is anything but a love-bug, thats why I have to use my back scratcher to get to lay in my feet while I put himt sleep with said B,S I'm going to look at your cats now.

All her belly fur is gone ...because she's old. Since this has happened, she loves belly rubs. Both Oscar and Maui like scritches on the head, and they both like butt pats. It must be a Meezer thing! Felix likes rubs everywhere. Especially around his cheeks and ears. He drools when he gets "eary scritches". :) Signature·.·´¨ ¨)) -:¦:- ¸.·´ .·´¨¨)) Laurie ((¸¸.·´ ..·´ -:¦:- ((¸¸ ·.· *~*LiveLoveLaugh*~* Aloha!!!!!

When you stroke under his chin, he leans so far in that direction that he tips over. He loves to have the bridge of his nose stroked, and he loves paw massages and belly rubs.

I think he was a masochist in a previous life as he prefers a good hard scratch to a gentle tickle! It's a good way to surreptitiously groom him at the same time, he's a very lucky boy! >> Where does your cat like to be petted? >> [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >gentle tickle! It's a good way to surreptitiously groom him at the >same time, he's a very lucky boy! My little Mimi loved very rough treatment. She used to jump on my mother's bed every night for what we called her "nightly beating." ;) The thing she loved the best was to be wrapped in a towel and rubbed very vigorously. What a little nut. ;) Theresa Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh My Blog: http://www.humanitas.blogspot.com Wilson doesn't seem to like head rubs, he thinks I'm asking him to play biting games, but he simply looooves his belly and chest rubbing with my back scratcher, he gets more use out of it than me, and it doesn't matter what he's doing he'll come running if I tap it onon the table leg.
