It’s not a Trap!

20130613-214005.jpg

While some fuzzy ginger kitties dislike the tummy rubs, the same cannot be said for Cousin Shepherd. In fact, (this part has to be whispered or he may find out he is adopted), he is the only kitty in the entire family that allows, let alone enjoys, the belly rubs! And who can resist that fabulous white bib?!

    Cousin Shepherd, you may just be related to my cat, Squirrel.
    When she decides to allow me to cuddle with her,
    she enjoys tummy rubs too!

    Maybe it’s a Tabby thing? Cosmo and Ling are the only kitties here who LOVE tummy rubs. They literally flop over at our feet to have their tummies rubbed. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Our MMM is the only one here who enjoys a tummy rub, the others are likely to give you something that is pointy in return.

    Mom wouldn’t be able to resist that tummy. Some of us like belly rubs and some of us don’t. We wish Mom would remember who does and who doesn’t Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
