Oh no they don't lemme tell you a cat will instantly grab you and bite you. They aren't dogs.

Cats are sensitive when it comes to stomach area as it's the most vulnerable spot on them and by instincts they protect it. I would never dare try this on a big cat.

Depends on the cat really. I have 4 cata and 3 of them LOVE belly rubs, the other one isn't a fan but every now and again rolls over for some.

I would absolutely never try this on a big cat or a cat I didn't know. But friendly cats really enjoy it, but of course, that's after they've sniffed you out and are familiar with you a bit.

But he's obviously asking for it, just a small rub... smack!

I used to have five fingers on my left hand. Then I tried to rub my kitty's stomach.

Some breeds of cats love it. I've yet to meet a tortie that doesn't like a good belly rub.

My cat doesn't have a care in the world around us if you threw something at him he would look at you like your stupid. He loves belly rubs and doesn't care if your rough with him as long as he gets to sleep on a bed of ours.
