He meows. Makes hard eye contact but if I touch him , he gets mad and runs off.
What? What do you want!?!?! Why are you staring at me and meowing if you don’t actually want me to do anything?!
He also seems to get mad and run off if I just look back at him and not try to pet him.
If I try to ignore him he just rolls around and sometimes does this little ridiculous “tantrum” deal where he will stand up and dramatically throw himself down and then roll onto his back. It’s always loud cause he’s a big cat. It can’t feel very good. But he does it all the time.
Idk. Maybe he just likes being dramatic.
Anyway. Any cat whisperers who have figured it out, let me know.
One of my cats lays on her back and stretches out when she’s hot. If you try to scratch her belly, she will claw your arm off. So she has clearly communicated that I should not scratch her belly and that’s an easy message to understand based on the scars.
My other cat loves belly scratches, but she prefers if I pick her up for them.
The easy thing to do is try various actions and then stop doing the ones that result in you getting your arm torn off, and whatever’s left over, that’s what the cat likes
What if you don’t figure it out before losing both arms?
