My
Ragdoll loves to sit on my chest when I am
laying on my back, hold a piece of my shirt
in his mouth and knead my stomach with his
front paws. Can you tell me what this means?
(Vicki Heinrichs, Canada)
I think your
cat is demonstrating the greatest compliment
you could have. He is enjoying the warmth
that you supply him with and bonding with
you by savoring the taste of your shirt. The
kneading of his paws is just a manifestation
of him being content, quite like how humans
will wiggle their feet in bed.
