Cat Forum / General Topics / November 2007New behavior.
In what seems to be five hundred times a day (not that I am complaining!) my cat rubs his nose on my nose to say hi. While I am working at the computer, reading, watching tv... you name it. Now a couple of times a week he gives my nose a gentle little bite between rubs. What gives?

Wait until he starts kneading. Oh, he's kneaded since he was a kitteh. He's six now and still does it sometimes. > It's a sign of affection.

Big Mama is 14 years old and still kneads...and does her "circles" before she lays down. Strangely enough, the funniest thing she does though is exceedingly rarely ever seen by me though...she won't do it if anyone is watching. I'll be inside sitting on the sofa, and she'll be outside on the deck; when all the sudden I'll hear the pitter-patter gallop of her paws running the length of the deck....back and then forth again as if for no reason at all. I call it; "chasing ghosts", because there is absolutely nothing on the deck she is chasing. It's just funny to hear her gallop though....just like a horse would. studio <tlack@hotmail.com> wrote in news:1194767253.350635.250950 @o38g2000hse.googlegroups.com: > Big Mama is 14 years old and still kneads...and does her "circles" > before she lays down. My cat does the same thing! He also "digs" the comforter or sofa cushion before circling and settling down.

For Deetoo, I call it doing her 'circle dance' alternating with single, double or triple reverse moves before she does a little hop in the air and flops down on her side. > In what seems to be five hundred times a day (not that I am complaining!) > my cat rubs his nose on my nose to say hi.

Gentile biting as a sign of affection is common with cats......Just be thankful he isn't a tiger! >> In what seems to be five hundred times a day (not that I am complaining!) >> my cat rubs his nose on my nose to say hi.

When sign makers go on strike, is anything written on their picket signs? It took me a minute but that was comedy gold.

As near as I can tell, (from watching animal planet specials) house cats are closer to tigers (personality wise) than to any other big cat.

Yeah, but tigers don't hop up and plop down on your keyboard when you're trying to work on the computer. : In what seems to be five hundred times a day (not that I am complaining!) : my cat rubs his nose on my nose to say hi. While I am working at the : computer, reading, watching tv... you name it. : : Now a couple of times a week he gives my nose a gentle little bite between : rubs. What gives? Just be grateful; I wish mine would move on to that stage. :) |
