In our case, it's definitely Rufous. He's got incredibly soft fur in his
tummy, and it's nice and cuddly (with spots!). Also, he's the most
skittish about tummy-rubbing, so that makes it more desirable I guess.
He doesn't mind tummy-rubs, but he doesn't love them either. Basho and
Issa, on the other hand, will let you rub their tummies all day long.

Baggy loooves tummy rubs. I often say there is something wrong with his
legs, cos soon as you go near him he rolls on his back. :-)

Smokey is a tummy slut too. Cali enjoys her tummy rubs when she's relaxed,
but you may get the occasional bunny kick,

How can you resist giving this little fella a wub?  This is our little 15
week old Omar.

I would have to say Frank. It's big, soft and white, and sometimes he
even lets me bury my face in it. Miranda's is far too tiny to be very
satisfacory that way, though I'm trying to teach her to let Meowmie kiss
the tumtum now and then. ;o) She doesn't like it, though. She always
gets this rather shocked look.

Nikki's tummy was the best for rubbing. She enjoyed it, and would
stretch out to receive scritches on as big a surface as possible.

Sammy still has irresistable baby fuzz on her tummy.  But if you try to rub
it you'll get *NAILED*!  ;>

Last week I would have said Snowball, who enjoys his tummy-rubs,
but now so does Claudius, and his has got Spots as well!

Only Bandit, even after 6 years of pampering, won't let anyone
near his vulnerable tum-tum on pain of disembowelment. Pity,
'cos it looks lovely & soft.

Stinky!  Of course!  Good thing he's a tummy whore. ;)    He and I
have always had a thing where I walk into a room where he's lounging,
and I say "SHOW ME THE BELLY!" and he flips right over. ;) Stinky's
belly is fluffy, blinding white, long *and* broad.  I always say it
looks like you can land F-16s on it at night. ;)

I think the spots are nipples.  Otis loves having his tum scratched (oh
not tickled by mum, really hard fur flinging scratching by dad) - he
rolls his eyes up, drools and sticks his tongue out - and Otis quite
likes it too!

The next day, mum is not amused as has to hoover up all the piles of
fur deposited on the sofa and floor and wash the covers to remove the
drool spots.

No, some cats have spotted fur on their tummies!

Silly and Scout both have wonderful soft fluffy furry white tummies
with spots! Scout lets me rub her tummy for her and she purrs her head
off for as long as I want to continue... Silver also likes tummy
scritches but she's likely to turn around and engage the deadly paw
trap if you do it for more than a few seconds at a time :)

Well, I'd have to say that of all my cats, the one with the yummiest
tummy is definitely Vino!  You just can't beat Vino's tummy, it's so
beige and tufty and soft and fluffy and he lets me touch it and bury
my face in it whenever I want.  That's why he has the bestest tummy of
all ;-)

TuTu is a mixed tabby but the whole under belly is pure white with
semi-long hair.  She loves belly rubs and combing.   MLB

I think the main reason Jake sleeps with us is to score the extra tummy rubs
at night if either of us can't sleep.

I'm only guessing that Molly even has a tummy.  She hasn't relaxed that much
yet.  I only get to scratch her back and ears for a few seconds if I am very
good.  I stepped on a paw while letting her out a little while ago.  That is
not what she considers being very good.

I have quite a nice collection of tummies at my place. Pan is a tummy slut.
Even though he's thin these days, he still loves a good tummy rub, and will
obligingly move his legs out of the way and purr LOUDLY the whole time with
his eyes closed and a smile on his little face.   Francesca and Nina both
have adorable soft tummies, and I can't decide whose is more desirable:
Nina's white tummy with the little belt of brown spotted fir just above her
hind legs, or Francesca's exotic orangey-brown fur with dark spots.  Nina
has somewhat MORE tummy than her mommy and is more inclined to let me touch
it  than Francesca is. Francesca bats at my hand with her paws and enough
claw tips to let me know that  I'm talking an UNSPEAKABLE liberty!

It's Will, hands down (or hands on).  His has just the right
feel.  Heidi is getting better about relaxing and letting us rub
hers, but it's just not the sensuous experience that rubbing
Will's is.

It's academic really.  For all I know KFC might have a very nice tummy and
now and again she will invite me to look at it.  It usually happens outside
in the summer and she will roll on her back on the path  "hey, stroke my
tummy.."  I fell for it once and retired wounded.
Boyfriend has a beautiful spotted tummy (eat your heart out Theresa, it is
so gorgeous..)
He shows it to me only occasionally when he feels really brave and
confident.
I think he would show it to me if I ate the mints I got in the post which
drove him a bit silly.  I must find out who sells them  <evil grin>

Ding, who has grown into a quite solid Russian Blue type, is the most
shy, and tends to hide. When he does come out to play, he often insists
on belly rubs. His alternative is to head-slam (not head butt) into me
when I'm in bed, and apparently try to get his head under my belly.

Once I start a belly rub, and sometimes a chest rub, he will usually
twist up his head to lick my hand. He has an uncommonly soft tongue for
a cat.

Rhonda will roll over, but really prefers to have her chest scratched
(as distinct to rubbed).

Mr. Clark, very rarely, will want a tummy rub, but, although he's
otherwise the most forgiving of the group, will warn that an uninvited
belly rub should stop very, very soon.

It is truly unfortunate that the absolutely most tempting tummy in our house
belongs to Tucker.  There is just something about that fat fuzzy
peach-colored tabby tummy that makes me take daring risks to pet it.  The
only way  I can get away with it is if he has both paws and claws and teeth
engaged in a cat toy and then I just reach in quickly and rub it!
Celeste says she can sometimes get away with petting his tum if he's verrry
sleeeppy (he sleeps with her in her room).
