Default Cat licking my face

Well, I've finally taught the new kitten not to sleep in my hair. His
newest thing is licking my face. He's done this three nights in a row.
He's very thorough, does almost the whole face and neck. I think it's a
bonding thing, like two kittens grooming each other. Which brings up
the question: Does he expect me to lick him back? Should I brush him
right after he does this?

Thanks, Betsy

Two of mine love to lick me on the face and the one drops her head
after licking. All I do to her is "snuzzle" with her.

I just rub my face against her head for a bit then when I stop she
licks me again and drops her head again and we "Snuzzle". This would
go on all morning if I let it.

no, i think the best thing you could do is just rub your cheek on his fur.
this is what my kitten does with my hand. i just pet her and let her know
she's appreciated

Dear Betsy,

Yes, your male cat does expect you to lick him back, I don't blame you
for not using your tongue, but you could get a hot wash rag and wipe
him dowwwwnnnn, l think he would really enjoy that.
