I knead you...
Starting this part Monday morning, out of nowhere, both of my cats started
kneading me. When Jack wakes me up in the morning, he'll climb on any even remotely horizontal surface I present. He'll knead my arms, shoulders, legs, et cetera. He gives a pretty good massage! Rizzo, who still sleeps in his own room, will get on my lap right away after I let him out, and will knead my arms and legs. Since neither uses claws, it's certainly not bothersome. I'm just curious what would get them both started, at the same, out of the blue. Is this affection, or are they tenderizing me? |

He started to do this about a month after I first adopted him, and I can now count on him to start the kneading process any time I lie down on the sofa to watch TV (but not as often when I'm in bed). I consider it a display of contentment. His kneading can be a bit painful. He doesn't dig in with his claws, but the little sharp points can hurt. So I keep a small coverlet beside the sofa, and I carefully pull it up (between Duffy and me) whenever I think I need some extra protection.

Wow, I've begun speaking broken English.
Starting this part Monday morning, That should be "this past Monday". bothersome. I'm just curious what would get them both started, at the same, out of the blue. "At the same time," that is. |

Has there been a change in the weather, or in how you smell (illness, medication, cologne, etc.)? Priscilla -- Minutus cantorum, minutus balorum, minutus carborata descendum pantorum.

He kneads any surface before he lies down, even laps. If it's a blanket, he re-arranges it forever. The amount of time he spends kneading and re-arranging is usually indicative of how long he plans to crash on that spot. Sherry |
