Ahaha, we play rough sometimes. But it's always play. He's actually really good at noticing if he has bitten or scratched too hard, there's a real shift in his demeanour and he suddenly gets all gentle and affectionate. But otherwise it's game on
i like to give my cat forehead kisses because why have a cat if you cannot kiss them on their cute little foreheads.
it's been a week. i woke up this morning, which was a surprise in itself (i don't exactly sleep these days) and my kitten was giving me forehead kisses. she's never done that before. at least not when i've been awake.
she never wants to be a sweetie when other people are around, kind of like how when you were in high school and didn't want your mom showing affection. i mean unless it's to make the person she really wants affection from jealous, she is a cat. specifically she is a tough cat. they found her in a dumpster behind the Paco Taco by the freeway and She Was Doing Fine (that is the story we made up for her before we got her from Kitty Jail. She is a Survivor!) but she loves it here and needs a snuggle when no one's looking.

My cat likes when I touch his paws.

heh, same. Mimi curls her paws when I slide my finger across them. She seems to like it

I see those scratch scars on your hand. You and I both know he's not always like that. :P
(I have a young cat and also have a scarred-as-shit hand. I wear them like a badge of honor.)

I know that face. She's feeling relaxion, and total trust in you, but also her body is tensed up because she's ticklish.

You trust him too, I see those scritches on the back of your hand.
You two have obviously negotiated before.

He's a good boy, I'm just too lazy to go fetch his toys a lot of the time!
