On one hand, how dare you reject my love. On the other, well if you didn’t sometimes then you wouldn’t be a cat. See you 'round, gato

No, if my wife touches my hair I have to fix it. It feels wrong otherwise.
They’re doing the same thing.
This is actually the cat being interested and curious as to who touched them, not a sign of rejection. If a cat doesn’t want to get touched, you won’t touch it.
You might touch it, but likely only briefly and you might also regret it.

I love you, Doctor Zaius!
ofc not, they are just fixing their fur
Hey it could be worse - if you touch me I get the shivers of disgust, very visibly. I still feel kinda sorry for that random person who accidentally slightly brushed my arm when they sat next to me in the train years ago
In all fairness she didn’t pass the initial sniff inspection followed by a surprise sniff inspection.
