Fun fact: everyone searched for this
thats true I searched that
Me too
I dont even own a cat
No way
True
“Don’t pet your cat while they are asleep”
Me: but........... *kitty*
I always pet my cat when shes sleeping 😩 it's to cute to not 🥺
cats are almost never fully asleep!
you can pet your beby whenever you'd like to play with them,but don't give pat pats when they are eating or in a box they will bitey
englishrxses well don’t
Mari Mine doesn’t lol, but i should really stop doing that anyway. She’s so cute though 🥺❤️
my cat likes it more when i pet her when she’s sleeping then when she’s awake
It's so easy to ignore that your cat is annoyed because they're soooo cute
RIGHT!?!? My cat just turned 1 and a half she has a heart shaped patern on her side
I’m just going to say it now: GIVE JISOO TURTLE RABBIT KIM MORE LINES! Thank you for listening to my ted talk
Yesssss
Thank you for all the likes evryone i have never gotten this many likes ever
NO MEANS NO
“Do not touch it’s belly”
My cat: *flops on the floor and stretches expecting me to give him a belly rub
My foster does too!
MY CAT LOVES BELLY RUBSS
My cat too xD
🐈
I’m gonna be a nerd
Cats do that not to ask for belly rubs they do it to show that they really trust you and love you. Cats are very exposed when showing their belly, so when they are exposing themselves they trust you won’t attack them, so rubbing their bellies would be considered an attack to them
"avoid patting, hitting or pinching even if the intention is good" _how would hitting a cat ever be of good intention_
I think they mean percussion massage. As a massage therapist, we slap the body with the flat of our hands or with closed fists to get the circulation moving, I do it with the tips of my fingertips all over my kitty and she loves it.
BUCCIARATIII
Another pro tip: Avoid punching, kicking, or strangling even if the intention is good.
I think they mean when cats bite you you feel like hitting a cat because of ur anger
@@zekkvot4712 what the fuck!!! why didnt you tell me sooner???
You just gotta squish that cat
Oh yeah? Guess your name says it all.
Lord Byron it’s from a video😂
@ Riccardo Verdecia Sr Why did you just have to ruin it?... Those videos are amazing.
@@AFMMarcelD r/wooooosh
lmaooo
My cat doesn't like being petted for more than 5 seconds, then he bites my hand and stares at me with his mouth partially open like he wants to eat me. Guess he's just nuts
He might be overstimmulated and taking a smell-break
No that’s a really good sign if it does that it means it wants you o pet it at the bottom of his chin right next to his mouth . My cat does it all the time. It might sound weird but Tm cats love it .
@ThatCrazy Drunk bruhhhh who hurt you?
ThatCrazy Drunk what the absolute fuck
Same for my cat
When the cat is trying to walk away, don't force holding it.
My brother does that and he doesn’t get that she hates him because of it
@@Wendys2069 he is dumb
such an ignorant creature, they should go extinct
@@vengeance86 ur talking about yourself right?
@@Wendys2069 😂
my cat be like:yes hooman pet me everywhere
"Don't pet ur cat when they r asleep"
Me: But...
"NO"
Me: but my cat likes to be petted when they r asleep
"NO WHO ASKED"
:(
They lick me
@@Spiffybub then get licked
Yeah.. some cats like it
Some cats don't like long full body strokes. I would recommend stretching out your hand to them and letting them sniff you and rub your hand with their cheeks. Then you can pet them gently on the head, but not aggressive long body strokes :) I have a cat and it loves rubbing and sniffing my hands
No! Don't listen to that bullshit, cats hate you she's dangerous, burn the cat
@@vengeance86 💀💀 why tf did u even click in this video 💀💀
@@vengeance86 2 cats lives on my terrace and they are the sweetest most affectionate beings. You're the dangerous one if you want to harm the cat not the cat themselves
Bruh same
Me too but my mom threw it so I got another one
I have an EXTREMELY friendly cat who loves being petted almost anywhere.. his name's Ginger and he is an angel.. he doesn't mind cuddling.. just call him and he'll plop right down next to you and you can stroke him for as long as you like.. I love him with a burning passion.
What if, i encountered an instance where the car purrs while getting petted, and when I stopped the cat slaps my hand, and then proceeds to continue to relax and purr when i continued to pet it.
Looks like the cat is saying, Come on! Keep going! 😸
@@IngotAU exactly lol. What a self centred cat
You're trapped
You're not allowed to stop unless the cat is satisfied and you will keep petting that cat
She's playing hard to get😂
Thats so cute
I always break contact before he gets annoyed when I pet my cat...I think their are several types of petting, when hes tired and going to sleep soon, it's a slow methodic petting session. When he's happy and running around, it's a quicker massage type sessions.... My cats a rescue cat, and for some reason his belly is off limits!!! And that's OK...
Yeah a cat doesn't let its belly being touched cuz it's a sign of weakness for animals since that's where the vita organs lie
@Soft & Wet Oh yea, I dare you to
type in cats that love belly rubs.
Say there are none, AND YOU'LL BE FULL OF IT.....
Legends: Squish that cat
Gamers: hold shift and have a fish in your hand
My cats actually like getting there tails pet and a long stroke from head to the end of the tail
wut how would you know
Err no it doesn’t
Yeetasaurus Rex thank you
Not every cat likes/dislikes the same thing you idiots.
@wut it depends how you grab the tail, they don't like when you squeeze it. But my cat likes when i pet from the head to tail.
A lot of cats rub their cheeks against you if they want to claim you. Scent glands are in their cheeks. If you look at a cat and keep eye contact, blinking slowly, they will know that you love them.
Oh really- I just thought my cat was just slow because shes old 😅
They stay cute all throughout their lives.
everyone who watched this video deserves love, this is such a wholesome topic and im glad i’m not the only one searching about it haha
I love these videos. I almost always learn something. In only about two weeks since I started watching these, the bond between me and my two cats has noticeably improved.
(I thought things were great before, but my cats assure me that I'm getting to be better and better company)
The ideal time to pet them is when they jump up onto your lap. It indicates receptiveness to contact from you.
Being a dog person, i never thought I'll watch this video until a stary cat came and start living in my house 😊🐈
They’re so entertaining, just can’t stop loving my baby ❤️😘✝️
Siobhan Kane I'm getting my baby next week!!!
Afraz Khan oh you’ll love her/ him The love is great 👍. Good luck
This help a lot, a random cat came in my house so I had to pet it took get it too relax
Did it come from the street? If so, does it have a small chunk taken out of its ear? This is the symbol that a cat is spayed/neutered. If it isn't, watch this video:
ua-cam.com/video/L50sMy1EFKU/v-deo.html
there are so many kittens in shelters because cats aren't spayed/neutered. getting your cat spayed/neutered can really help decrease the numbers of kittens in shelters.
You don't squish the cat?
I petted her just once and she rolled on her back with her belly up while purring and blinking at me. Her paws were curled. Literally so cute. 😫💕
I have two cats, both female, sisters in fact which were raised by me since two weeks old cause the mother was run over. Even though they were raised similarly they have very different preferences with nearly anything. While one likes to be full on cuddled and held in my arms the other prefers long strokes over the back where she can get away any time and freely choose the amount of attention she wants.
So there is no absolute right or wrong it's just about getting to know your cat.
My girl loves a pat but I call her belly “the trap”. She stretches way out on her back, enticingly exposing her fluffy little tum but SNAPs up with teeth and back legs catching my hand to kick and give love bites lol. She keeps doing it and I keep falling for it 😁
Same tbh. At this point she scratches me so much it doesnt even hurt anymore, lol.
@ lol.. don't tell me what to do..
Very helpful. Thank you!
My cat kneads the air when I pick him up and when he's in a loving mood.
That's cute :-)
My yellow tom likes to be gently patted on the back. He likes to be scratched around the head and neck. If very relaxed, he obviously indicates it's ok to pet his belly. You just have to tune in to his behavior cues. Especially the subtle indicator called biting and scratching the crap outta me....
Since I have my cat next to me I searched this up and I'm happy
I have this handheld back massager, my cat loves it and it makes us both really happy because he purrs like crazy
Piplupppppppp
thank you this really helped my cat😊
Thank you for these tips and where to pet a cat! I watched this because I have a cat friend outside, she has a owner but, she's very comfortable with me. When she's outside the house I call her then she runs to me and rubs her head on me 🧸✨
Instructions unclear, cat stuck in motorboat.
1 STAR!!
Lol
My neighbour's foster kitten never cares where you pet her. Although petting her in her belly was difficult because that would often initiate playfighting. Then again, just moving anything in front of that little kitty could initiate playfighting. She'd often come to our back door just to see if I was there for a play session. I miss her. Just the way her innocent little face would peek inside just to check if I was there.
You should've adopted the cat then, seeing how much you enjoyed its company.
@@tsutsuji1 unfortunately I wasn't (and still am not) in a position where I can really take care of a cat. Maybe when I have finished university and have my own home instead of renting a room.
I got a cat today and it would flinch with the slightest sound and touch, I’m glad I was able to find useful advise
Actually i searched this because from many days a cat is roaming around our house and she is crying so much i don't know what happened to her maybe she is hungry or she is cold. I even gave her food a week ago and since that she has recoginised me like she has observed me and even i named her MOMO♡ but now i wanna really pet her in my house! And everyone's sleeping and even she came to my window she was watching me! So yeah i wish that my mom wouldn't be mad at me!
This is very true 👍
I love cats.
Who doesn't
The music used in this video sounds like something from the OST of the cat-focused game Stray and I love it
I think this is some excellent advice. Especially, practicing love, respect, and patience. My Lucy come from an abusive home. When I first got her, she would for no reason, bite my face. Some times drawing blood! I would absolutely not do anything, but say loudly say NO! Then walk away. It took awhile for the biting to stop. But it did. The worst thing she does now is paw slap me. She takes her paw, claws in, and brushes my cheek. If I am being a total idiot? Lucy takes a little bit of my hair in mouth, and gently tugs. Far cry from the cat that was dumped off at door with a litter box and half a bag of cat food. Then hid from me for 2 months.
my cat likes all of her paws massaged b4 bed every night and in the morning b4 I go to work 😆😁😁
Our cat loves to have the bridge of her nose scratched up and down. I make a point of finishing with a downward scratch or pet to leave the nose fur as it was, going with the grain.
All cats are different, my Babycakes for example loves rather hard pats on her bottom near the tail and soft ear massages. She gets bored with long strokes and totally hates scratches on her back or bottom. My sister's tabby on the other hand loves long strokes, scratches behind the ears and soft pats on his bottom. He also likes when resting to be petted on his belly with long soft strokes, he purrs really loud while sleeping. With my baby we do have to be very careful not to over excite her or she bites, not too hard but she does... Or becomes "crazy" wanting to play and run around. When I want to start her motor for playing I do it a little and she loves it. Sometimes she has bitten my hand when I don't pat her strong enough
Omg yas thx
beautifully explained. Subscribed.
my cat loves it when I stroke his paw! he insists on me holding his paw when we (yes we as in me and cat) go to bed
This really helped me
We're so glad we could be of help!
I think my cat doesn't care where we pet her...lol
Because she knows you, some cats slap your hands if you try to scratch their belly because it's sensitive.
I think it does
@ASHLEY PAWLICKI-ANDERSEN obviously stupid, she knows you I'm talking about cats that dont know you
@ASHLEY PAWLICKI-ANDERSEN
My car likes when I pet its tires
@@garythemilkman4442 my car likes me falling asleep with it
Cute and thanks
Our oldest Cat Sy actually was on my lap when our Second cat, Titan appeared next to me on the couch, so when I lifted him up, He Hissed at Titan and when I tried to grab him again, he Hissed, I DID Leave him alone, so Idk if he was annoyed or just Mad at Titan..
My cat loves when I stroke his paw he always hands me his paw 😍
True
my Maine Coon has one petting zone only. Everywhere. ESPECIALLY the belly. He demands belly rubs and will meow until he gets it, when rolling on his back on the floor. He then promptly starts to purr or close his eyes
I never knew there were relaxing song's for cats too
Yes there are, I was amazed too. 🙂
'Cat relax' and it works too. My 2 like it every now and then.
Too precious, when they love their scratches :)
Thx a lot, my dad found a lonely kitten in the garage and we started taking care of her. I started petting her but sometimes it gets to a point where it bites but not really strong. I will do what you said and then see if it worked. Thx !!😃😃🥰🥰
Nipping might be play fighting or annoyance. :D
My cat's name is Princess Pei Pei like from the movie Shanghai Noon. She loves to be pet but only when Princess deems it necessary LOL😹
First time owning a cat and this tips are grateful appreciated i already got scratch i pet him wrong
Good tips!
But when I'm petting my cat she falls asleep sometimes to it. So when she is asleep I gently pet her under the chin then leave her to sleep 😺
my cat was watching this video like:bro i'm a kitty kat always love me
my cat LOVESSSSS her belly scratched though it's so cute! But she doesn't like prolonged petting and I was getting "stop bites" confused with "love bites" as a first time cat owner. I've always had dogs. And well I had to realize- cats are cats not dogs! lol.
I rescued a cat that was about 7 weeks old the other day. Yesterday he let me pet him, but todat when I pet him his body language says that he likes it, but he takes his claws and puts him arm in the air as if reaching for the stars, his claws are also out when he's on my lap, which doesn't usually happen. I don't know what to do.
Any suggestions or replies are greatly appreciated :D
when i’m petting my cat and he walks away: *:(*
because youre a gachatard
@@tiffanytwo2652 i respect that
My boy has known and trusted me long enough that he doesn't mind gentle belly rubs, a bit of gentle squeezing, petting the tail, heavy pats on the body, and petting against the fur (I always end by petting with the fur when I'm done). Is my cat weird? There have been times I've noticed the irritated body language but he's never intentionally hurt me. He might have nipped at me or accidentally scratched me at times but the most he's done was walk away. He practically forces his way onto my lap half the time so I might be doing something right lol
I have found that when you reach to pet from above, it can often seem threatening. Whether you are dealing with an old friend or a new acquaintance to put your hand below the chin line and allow them to rub against you like they would a box or wall eases the stress of being mauled by the great big human. 🐈
Good point about not coming in from above. One of my cats used to be very nervous when humans would loom over her. Fortunately, we humans noticed, and quit looming
@@IngotAU Good for you! At least you saw and did something to ease the stress of your furry friend. Most don't and I have seen people grab a cat by the front paws, drag them forward and force them to be petted. Feline equivalent of rape.
🐈
What? The cat here is the opposite. Angry if you approach her from the bottom 🤔
@@fionnaclarissamuharlie168 Ok.
Doesn't change an observation made from having more than a dozen feline friends _in_ my home in the last 50 years. Not even _trying_ to count the 100's of others.
@@thetowerstillstands yeah I know, a weird cat there 😂 maybe one of a hundred.. learned it the hardway tho, add that she's a bit bipolar too, "scritch me but don't scritch me"
My cat loves having its belly stroked
My cat hates it
Im dog sitting 2 dogs and theres also a cat here, i was playing with it and when i stopped it followed me so i started to run around the house and it chased me and tried to attack my leg O_O
my kitty doesnt mind belly rubs :) she's a senior cat and shes blind so she has. more trust in us than she normally would if she was more agile and not blind. its fine! her belly is soft and chonky -3-
* Around the back of the ears
* Around the tail, near the rear
* Under the chin
Your cat will purr loudly 😁
My cat is a „happy cat“ everytime I give her food. Else she just spends her time relaxed sitting on my lab.
I need this because there’s a cat that wants petting
Finally my cat will love me
Honestly I don't even own a cat, I just came here because I like cats.
Watching this so I know how to pet the kitties I walk past in my neighborhood.
My kitty loves belly rubs tho
Same 🤔🤔🤔
@@bobman-li2xd Same for mine! (My cat looks *almost identical* if not *identical* to the cat at 3:04.)
Jaden Tapscott my ginger cat likes belly rubs, she is 15 years old or so and is the calmest out of the 4 we have. We have a long haired black cat who rolls around a lot but doesn’t like belly rubs because of car accident he had earlier
my ginger girl rolls on her back and offers her fluffy belly. starts purring right away when I pet her.
Me, who doesn’t have a cat, but has a dog: *INTERESTING.*
My cat lifts his head when i scratch it and likes being tickled under his chin
Fungusz _ same
@Cyrsclin they lift their tails because they're happy
07-08-2022. Good job brother
Everywhere !
Basically not my pet cats but some street cats whom we feed continuously are like angels never bites or scratch us
I have the same cat as in the thumbnail wow
The chonker in my pic loves being petted EVERYWHERE! And if I stop she blocks my way, meows and rolls over to lure me back into petting her. She even jumps into my lap and doesn't leave, she wants me to carry her like a baby
And whenever your kitty stretches it’s the law that you have to narrate: “Oh stretchy stretch”
Please make a video on why sleep in morning not night
Thanks. I am allergic and have almost never touched a cat. I have recently met a stray cat that I want to pet but I have no idea how to pet cats
My 🐈 loves her belly rubbed she purrs
My rescue car was 6 yrs old.I can only pet him around the neck .I cannot pet him on his body,which makes it difficult to brush his long hair.Any suggestions.
My cat love rough petting
My 20 lb. Black, Bombay, alpha Male cat, NOT FAT EITHER, COMMANDS RESPECT!!!🐅 High maintenance, but well worth it...
Same here except female and a bit lighter 🐱
Alright so I don't know if this is a bug or what , but I got a reply update in my inbox but when I checked to reply it didn't appear, but nonetheless, her name is ninja because the first day we found her, she leaped into our arms and started purring, so we had to take her to a party because the party owner knew how to take care of a cat. She spent the entire party:
•hunting the meatballs
•hiding in closets
•just generally sprinting around everywhere.
🐱
My cat is doing everything in this video
My cats like having their stomachs rubbed sometimes
Cats are basically me 😂
My cat loves pets everywhere and does not get angry just sleep
My cat loves belly rubs
I have a experiment cat too lol
I wanna pet this stray that lives outside my door, but she always randomly hisses at me even though I feed her. I get she's feral, but she did kiss up to me once by rubbing up against my leg so I can feed her lol
My cat really likes when I scratch the bottoms or in between the paws. He starts purring and falls asleep
Your couch is a pretty good place
