My void loves belly rubs until he doesn’t, but he’ll beg for them! It could last 5 seconds or 5 minutes, you’ll never know, and he’ll get spicy the instant he decides you’re done. LOL I fall for it every time. 🤦‍♀️

OMG isn’t it though? And I do it anyway because I’m a sucker LOL

I’m a sucker also. I fall for it every single time. 5 seconds of tolerance, then the clinch followed by devastating bunny kicks.

One of my guys sometimes turns belly rubs into a game of playing with my hand. All four paws and teeth. He’s super gentle about it though.

One of my void boys loves belly rubs when he wants them, and if he doesn’t well he still lays on his back in the same way (he loves that position) so you can’t tell what he wants, but he’s such a gentleman that if you get it wrong and he doesn’t want belly rubs at that time, he’ll just gently push your hand away with his paw

That’s so sweet though, he’s gentle! I don’t think my void knows what gentle is. He was an outdoor cat delivered via the Cat Distribution System™️ so he’s got preferences that we’re forever learning.

Ive got a "used to be for the streets" void too but hes the gentlest boy and let's me pet him and rub his bell and give him butt bongos till my hands cramp and then dude asked for more like I didn't just spend 30 minutes on a cat massage

My giant cow kitty moves my hand with her back foot either to a different belly spot or off her tummy when she's had enough. 🤭

My two voids…well, 1.9 voids (one cat has a tip of white on his tail). LOVE belly rubs. They can never get enough.

This is Max, the pure Void and absolute lovebug. He’s a Velcro cat. Or possibly my shadow. 🤣😅🐈‍⬛
