Here kitty kitty. Where that cat wants to be touched, and where he doesn’t...

If you’ve got a cat, you’ve probably already found the best spots for scratching – and the worst. 

While most dogs might love a good belly rub, that’s off limits for most cats. The belly is the most vulnerable spot on a cat because it provides access to all of their vital organs. Most cats are very protective about that spot and would rather not feel compromised on their back. Some cats will learn to like a belly rub from someone they really trust, while others never, ever will.

If that cat could talk, he or she would ask you to scratch at the base of the ears, on the cheeks just behind the whiskers, under the chin and at the base of the tail. Now that feels good.
