Muzzling cats' noses
Lately, Martha our adorable tortie encourages me to make a circle with
my thumb and forefinger, then she shoves her little muzzle into it. Idon't think this is especially odd because most cats like to have their heads and faces mauled. Does your cat like the muzzle muzzling treatment? |

When Sir Weebs was a tiny one (1 - 2 days old) I had to bottle feed him, and he was sooooooo anxious and squirmy to get to the bottle, I couldn't get it in his mouth, so I had to hold his head still the way you describe. Until he learned to "find" it on his own. To this day, when he wants food in his dish, he comes up and nudges a hand with his head... He'll be 5 later this month. -- ^..^ This is Kitty.

Our like that and also like it if you cup your hand so they can bury their whole face in it. Kind of like they are trying to get their whole face scritched all at once. Jo |

Afterwards, when I'm towelling off she jumps down and helps me dry off by licking my ankles. She enjoys hearing me laugh because her raspy little tongue tickles me. |

In ,
outsider shouted to everyone in earshot, Frankie loves the armpit and I am _very_ ticklish! heh, I hear that. I'm actually not all that ticklish, but it's still hard to not "jump" when I'm lying down and Jimmer comes up to jam his nose into my pit, even if I'm wearing a shirt or two *and* I see him coming.
