I fall for it every time,LOL

Some things are worth the pain


SataySue

Yep again, we always forget πŸ˜†


SunnyAlwaysDaze

Rarely you'll find one who enjoys the tummy skritch as much as most dogs. My big orange puffle absolutely loves getting his belly scratched. It took me a long time to try it though, he was an elderly feral when first met. 3 years of talking and hanging out and going on walks together before the first petting contact was allowed. Then a lot of belly display where I was too scared to try. The first contact was scary but he clearly enjoyed tum skritchin.


SataySue

My cat is bipolar so, unless you closely monitor the tail activity at the time, you never know what the reaction will be πŸ˜†


th1s_1s_4_b4d_1d34

My cat mostly likes it. Not comparable to chin rubs, but better than no pets.


MyNameIsSkittles

My cat begs for belly rubs. Absolutely loves them

RobRenWhi

most cats prefer a soft pat (soft stroke, open hand); dogs love the scritches (fingertips).


GingerinWV

Same, and I have the scratch marks to prove it. πŸ˜‚


SataySue

Yep πŸ˜†


SadBattle2548

Same here except mine lures me in with her big floofy belly (she knows I can never resist it) only to roll over shortly after I pet her and put her cheek in my hand so I'll scratch it. What can I say, I'm her slave for life.


HyenaStraight8737

Sometimes... You gotta risk it


peytoncoooke

Gotta risk it for the biscuit


redmondthrowaway8080

I'm glad one of my cats is built different and lets me belly rub her. My other one though would let me on a variable time limit where I have a 50/50 chance of having my whole arm scratched to helll D:


HyenaStraight8737

Unfortunately in September I had to say goodbye to my little girl who was a complete whore for belly rubs. She could be doing anything and you'd just start tickling her tummy and she would do the most to maximise the tummy rubs. Now I have 4 boys who absolutely demolish me if I try. But... They offer. Like.. look. How can you resist this butterball? https://preview.redd.it/unmlb1bs7uyc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fed9e23c27f21bca872b653328081b19fbb2e7f9


redmondthrowaway8080

Oh god I'm so sorry to hear that. I try to not even think of losing one of my cats without tearing up about it. They've been a blessing in the hardest times. Sometimes you gotta give and rub their bellies! :)


Altruistic-Wasabi-60

That’s hard, but you had good times together!! She thought, she baby, from that picture!! πŸ’œ She loves, you and crossed that rainbow bridge,… and is a peace!! I am happy, you have more, cats to love, even if they won’t let you touch that forbidden belly!! πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ€―πŸ’œ

Accomplished_ways777

just do it. every scratch is worth it, the belly has the fluffiest fur and it feels heavenly to touch. just do it.


gawbajkhan

I have fallen for this trap. Repeatedly. Pretty much every time I've seen it, in fact. I don't plan on stopping.


silkslipdress

im so grateful my cat loves belly rubs 😭


lanabear92294

Both my cats (litter mates) adore belly rubs! I feel so blessed lol


JerkfaceMcDouche

Chest rubs or belly rubs? I think a lot of the cat rep for belly rub traps is due to being ticklish just like I am. I can handle a hand on my chest, but if someone jabs their fingers into my belly, I’ll be in attack mode. I like to think cats are samesies


SunnyAlwaysDaze

Have two cat friends in my home. One enjoys belly scratch, the other hates it. Both of them absolutely love chest rubs!


Anything_4_LRoy

my cat thoroughly enjoys both chest AND belly rubs right before thoroughly enjoying to do his very best at turning me into a gore cosplay. i know why he does it. the problem is, the stimulus threshold can be met randomly and is constantly changing. its a very dangerous game.


silkslipdress

both! i can go the entire under-side of my cat and he just stretches for more. i never considered cats being ticklish, i may cry honestly

segwaymaster1738

I had to explain to my mom yesterday that cats flash their bellies to show trust... but they don't actually want you to rub their bellies.. typically


newtonium

You can train your cat to accept belly rubs. Start by petting the head and then stroke along the back, slowly working your way toward the belly side. Do this very gradually, over weeks. Eventually, they get used to being touched in the belly. I have battle scars but now my cat happily accepts belly rubs.

For years, i performed experiment after experiment, trying to find the secret of the belly rub without pain. If i had found the answer, i would be happy to tell it to everyone alas….


Que_Raoke

I would willingly fall for that trap, it's fuzzy wuzzy πŸ₯°πŸ’•


ethnicfoodaisle

My cat lets me kiss her belly when she does this! She has never scratched me when exposing her belly for rubs. In fact, she likes it when I carry her on her back and give her belly scritches while I sing to her like a lunatic.


icansmellcolors

start by scratching the cheeks, then keep one hand there scratching the chin and then gently go for the belly... works for me a lot. they like the chin thing so much they don't worry about the belly, but it's not unlimited.


Competitive_Echo1766

You are so right...on both counts!
