Hm, I got two cats - and four dogs.

One cat gets pissed if you touch it. The other one loves to have it’s head and ears rubbed.

“Mine seeks out my hand and pets himself with it. Sometimes I have to leave the room to get away from him. “

You leave him alone with the hand?

Ha, looks just like my Sue, a Walker Hound I adopted. She’s a real sweetie-pie, very vocal though.

In case it wasn’t clear, I side with the “bullsh*t” faction.

Bottom line: Don’t stoke your pussy.

This article is such BS.

Agree!

I've had cats around since I was 12, 70th birthday too soon, methinks they are missreading their data.

What? My cat has been hanging out at your house? Tell him to come home at once.

Pretty on target. Especially the “hell yes” region.

Mine seeks out my hand and pets himself with it.

+1 "You don't get out of it that easy" seems to be the message.

So when they crawl in your lap purring when you pet them, and shut their eyes and throw their heads back, it’s some sort of strange deceptive reaction?

Mine used to wait by the door, throw her paws around my neck and hold me when I came home from work.

Now a lot of cats don’t like having their bellies rubbed, would rather have their cheeks or necks stroked. But the rest - garbage.

That chart is pretty close for a lot of cats and especially for my current two.

I love that picture... but it needs to be complete with the doggie graphic that goes with it...
