It's all about the belly

Or so it seems. This is as close to utter happiness as you get in this vale of tears - a completely blissed out cat in the middle of a belly rub.

Unfortunately, this can only happen in the floor, so down to the carpet I go, to rub and pet her (substantial) tummy as long as she want it. I'm told that she's had enough by a nip on the hand, after which she stalks off like she's insulted. I guess we're done. You're welcome?

Molly looks like she is in heaven!

Skyler flops on the floor a lot but you only get a few belly rubs in but he is nipper, for sure. Any ideas on how to stop that other than take a hint?

Oh, the cat has you trained! She looks very happy.

You are a very well trained human who is owned by a cat! LOL Smudge loves tummy rubs up to a point -- and when that point comes, he's not the least bit shy about letting us know.

That looks like a very contented cat! Very similar to a greyhound but they don't nip, just wave a regal paw when they want more. In the unlikely event they want you to stop, there's a big sigh, a comedy eyeroll and a special wiggle. They definately have us well trained!

I would be scarred for life if I tried this with Joey the Killer Cat. His version of "playing" usually means visits to the ER.

I've tagged you to play Photo Tag. Come on over to my blog and see how to play, if you want to participate!

yep, it's like that in my house times two! And they'll flop and roll for a belly rub anytime someone gets near them. A good life indeed!
