Every cat is different, some don’t even enjoy things cats are supposed to.

My cat will let me touch and pet him anywhere. He will get up and walk away if he’s done with it. I’ll roll him around on the floor like a rolling pin or play the bongos on his belly or butt. Sometimes he will want to play rough and will play bite and bunny kick my hand but it’s never actual aggression.

My friends cat will let you pet him quite rough but he doesn’t like his belly or back legs pet. He will gently let you know with a kind nip and a little yip sound. Hasn’t been hissy or scratchy but I think it’s because he knows me and we are pals.

My cat fuckin loves tummy rubs. He plops on the floor on his back in front of me and eats em up without ever doing that crazy cat thing where he changes his mind and attacks, unless I explicitly provoke it. He also lets me touch his tail and has no qualms with my clipping his claws, though sometimes he just gets done sitting in my lap making the claws harder to clip. But if I get him I. The right state he just dgaf and let’s me clip them all.

He dgaf about catnip tho

As others have said it really depends on the cat. My two let us do all, the belly as long as it’s very gently

A lot of what you hear is mostly tongue in cheek but also from those who don’t know how to cat.

We have three cats, two brothers and one girl a year older than them. Both boys love (and beg for) belly rubs so much that you could practically mop the floor with them!

The girl, however, is very skittish. (She was socialized a bit too late.) She tolerates people and whatnot, but lets you know VERY quickly when she’s done. However, she is also my cat specifically. She trusts me and loves me, and while petting her, she will very distinctly roll over, show her belly, and let me rub it while she licks me!

So, to answer your question, it can be normal for your cat to love all that attention! It mainly comes down to personality/temperament, your bond with the cat, and how much they trust you. What’s also noteworthy is that she shows you her limits, and you obey them. By doing this, you show her that you can be trusted for further petting and loving!

My cat loves belly rubs. He can go for 30 minutes straight no problem, no biting or anything.

My cat hates getting brushed and hates any form of wet food, including any human food (except for ice cream). So yeah. Cat’s are weird like that.

My cat is the same but also in short bursts. I feel like carrying a cat is generally fine if they trust you and you do it in a way that isn’t uncomfortable for them.

It entirely depends on the cat, and generally speaking, the earlier you teach a kitten that human contact is a good thing the more likely they will be receptive of it. Cats are most impressionable the first 10-12 weeks of their life, after that its really hard to convince them to change. We have two cats that were raised in a great foster home that we adopted at around 12 weeks and they will literally let you do anything; I think its like 50% genes and 50% how they were raised

My cat is fine with anything except being carried for a long period of time, he’s great.

My cat demands it my meowing super loud and annoyingly while rolling on her back. Every animal is different, regardless of what people say…unless it’s a health thing that is

Depends largely on both of our moods. Usually yes, any type of snug.

Only if I pour myself into him fully though.

He’s very spoiled.

Cats have their own personalities. Some don’t mind being picked up, some love it, others hate it. Same goes for belly rubs.

I think the key thing is trust. If you’re to do any of these things with a cat, it must trust you enough first. That is especially the case for touching the belly 😉

I have two cats that are sisters. One loves belly scritches. Her sister hates them.
