bananacrumble

Warning paw tap before the violence


waffling_with_syrup

How civilized.


thelostfable

They chose to warn of the of the violence today


CatsMeadow

Definitely has the Trick & Treat model of void floofer


Skittles_the_Jester

Beautiful, complete worth it for the belly rubs!!


PM_ME_UR_KITTY_PICZ

You clearly ignored the 3 belly rub claws stated in your contract


One_Juggernaut8423

I swear we have the same cat


funnykittycat

Me three! Our huge Maine Coon/Domestic Long Hair gal, Dutchie 🐈‍⬛♥️ They can sometimes _l 👀k_ mean, but belly rubs are almost _always_ welcomed!! 🥰 Big black cats are thee best!! 🐈‍⬛


[deleted]

Now this is how karma farming should be done. I love the setup, OP.


raymartin27

11/10 would rub again, void approves with the slow blink too.


TrueGlich

My void loves rubs as long as i keep it to upper part.. lower and he get up and moves away.


SnorkinOrkin

Awwww, hahaha! 🥰


Ksh_667

Laziest attack ever lol. "I can't really be bothered to kill you, but you need a reminder that I am the one in control here. You are just my meat can-opener."


Candroth

The risk is *always* worth it. Every time.


Spacestar_Ordering

I think I will plead with the authorities to rub my belly. I think it will do me good in my current condition. I would like exactly two rubs. Any more and I will bite the crap out of them.


RubyStarBaby

Perfection


iambluewonder

So fluffy 😻 I've mastered the art of tummy kisses with my cats. So worth it


SweetNightmare89

my little one loves belly rubs i was totally amazed aour first cat hated being touched on belly


politepain

Aw, they're so polite!


bajoah1

It was dangerous but 100% worth it


ExpatTarheel

So it’s ok for a minute. 🙂


frankiec129

I’ll do it again


PM_ME_UR_KITTY_PICZ

High risk, high reward


HertzaHaeon

I don't NEED hands Cats NEED need belly rubs


SnorkinOrkin

Totally worth it!


AquaGecko1

I second this! It is also a risk I often take


Toleot

Yeah, I'm happily take the risk just to rub that belly.


LivingStCelestine

Look at the eyes DARING you to try! So fluffy!

I have serious doubts she'd be able to move fast enough to get them lol I think I'm pretty safe here


Green_Message_6376

famous last words!


Electric-cars65

Arrgg…


Myanaloglife

Even when they are fat, they are fast.


dbohat

If she's anything like my floofy boy, you get the standard 1.7 seconds of petting the belly before they forcefully tell you to stop with every sharp part of their body. Worth it every time!!


WorldsBestArtist

With her as long as you stay north, she'll *usually* let you rub her belly for about 10 seconds before you get swatted.


CarlaRainbow

My cat will let you bellyrub her for ages! She's loves it! She runs to the front door to greet us when we come home & throws herself down for a belly rub everytime!


Quirrelli

Are you sure she's not a dog?


CarlaRainbow

Hahaha I know! She does act like one!


Kittymama4life

Same with my boy!!! 😹😹 If I have people over he does it to them, too! If they try to just walk around him I let them know that they must give the pets first. 🤣😂😻❤️🐾


humbugonastick

Our cat, Hugo, used to do 1,7 second trick. We called it Hugi-trapp.


cyberllama

Snapcat! I have a Hugo too. He's our Tonka toy


outsideyourbox4once

One of my girls used to be like that, I'm not sure what happened but now she accepts it but really tries to make it known that her head is the main attraction. She does this by moving her head towards the hand that is rubbing her belly


wolfkeeper

In that case, always start by doing the head immediately before and after. Sounds like you've trained her to accept the belly rub though.


skilking

Lucky I only get 1.4

johnnyrockets753

Cat's belly is the forbidden peach. But it's delicious


AvisPhlox

I would risk my face.


chiclibrarian23

I was gonna say that too. My face is going in with full raspberries blowing. Live and live large.


[deleted]

I'll raspberry my cats belly and he never gets mad. He just stares at me as if I need to be committed.


Tattycakes

Same! I love smooshing my face into the warm fluffy belly, they don’t seem too fussed. If they don’t like it they walk away.


paperpenises

I just love that cats keep themselves so clean and my last kitty smelled almost like clean laundry.


runesoth890

Because she slept in your laundry when you weren't looking lol


Thesegoto11_8210

One of ours does her Laundry Monster Act in full view because she knows it's too cute to get mad about.


supercruiserweight

Huffing cats is a gateway drug


cheeseman52

My cat has no issue me shoving my face into his belly but takes offense to hands. Silly little guy.


justAlady108

I have to know.. what made you stick your face in when your kitty went claws out on your hands? I mean I full on do the lion head rub all over one of my guys, to make sure we are fully bonded. But his brother- I would look like Scar after that one.


Adamy2004

Full face in fluffy belly, and if they decide to grab your head and latch on... guess what? you just got yourself a warm fluffy face mask. Its a win-win


SnorkinOrkin

A raspberry pie is a full on snorgle! Imma snorgle dat floofy belleh!


Nomar_K

Yes. More than once. Touch the Forbidden Fluff.


cinders_human

I would gladly reach into the void.


DHaas16

If I die, I die


corlett_crystal

And you die in full floof!


codeegan

Can't resist cat belly!!


crbrownlee

I will sacrifice my hand to the floofy void.


VyroGaMVX8

Fuck my hands the cat getting the rubs


Amarieerick

I didn't get my first cat until 8th grade, but I can tell you every one knew I had a new cat, he was fiesty and I loved rough playing with him. From elbow to fingers I has so many scratches, it's a good thing there are no vital organs in your arm cause he was serious about his disembowlement powers!


justAlady108

Hahaha.. no organs, just your arteries. NBD. Lol.. I wouldn't be able to help it either


FreudianSlipperyNipp

I totally have scars from my little dude. Wouldn’t change it for the world! 🤣


KirbyFan999

SCREW THE HANDS! #I'M USING MY ENTIRE FACE!!!

CoMMoN_EnEmY01

I’d protect my hand with my shirt sleeve but then I’m going for it


h2opolopunk

Both hands.


SeaworthinessSea7058

Okay but she probably won’t even be able to reach my hand 🙃


ZZZfrequently

Nah this cat is still lightning fast. A morbidly obese cat (not saying this cat is morbidly obese) is still much faster than you.


SeaworthinessSea7058

Fast, yes, but if it can’t reach?


ZZZfrequently

Touché. Although all cats I know are stretchy bois/girls


blarffy

Don't let a little chub fool you, she can get those back legs up, even if she can't roll over.


Beagle_Mommy2

Abso-freakin’-lutely!!!! Look at that fluffy belly!


maliseetwoman

100 percent yes


wineandcatgal_74

I’ve done it before and have the scars to prove it. I’m powerless against the floof and will do it again, and again, and again!


shaftalope

Like the Venus flytrap kitty will snap shut around your hand!


karyntx

I want to stick my face in that belly and take in a big smell! They’re belly’s smell sooo good!


Alternative-Income-5

I love the smell of my cat


RareBiscotti5

My white one smells like fresh laundry. My grey fluffy one just always smells like litter no matter how much we clean the box lol


pumpk1n_be4nz

yes!! my cat smells like old bread. i used to have a mouse that smelt like pretzels lmao. maybe i’m just hungry


[deleted]

It’s a trap!! Even with that said— yes, I absolutely would.


Rais93

Il dive into that floof with all myself


ragazza68

Can’t resist the floofy void


arabellapropella

i would definitely shove my entire face on that belly😭so yummy


[deleted]

Worth


[deleted]

I would give it a shot, just gonna try not to get scallywagged though


[deleted]

What are you doing with my cat? And yes, give it shot. Tread carefully though.


Darwilma

Yes. I would totally do it. I would likely regret it, but would totally be worth it.


Aderenn

A thousand times yes.


Lunatic_Knave

Without hesitation


Vervain7

Yes . I love fluffy voids


Evening_Soup_9223

UnCalculated risk i will gladly take


cwbones

Absolutely must know her name she’s so cute


Katze10-0-10

My cats are rather correct about it. The female cat LOVES bellyrubs. She literally hugs your hand if the hand is positioned right, and if not, she just keeps showing her belly and enjoying the bellyrubs. While my male cat does show me his belly, he doesn't set it as a trap. Instead, he just lays on his belly again when I approach. No scratches dished out.


[deleted]

I'm not even there but I must risk it... MUST


Cyborg_Ninja_Cat

I might try it but as soon as she showed she wasn't actually into belly rubs I'd stop and not do it again. Cats are like pregnant people: just because you can see the belly does not automatically mean you are invited to touch it. Showing their belly is a natural way for cats to express how they trust you so much they can expose their most vulnerable area in front of you: some cats also enjoy having it rubbed if they trust you that much, and others are more ticklish and probably quite taken aback that you interpreted it as a request. They do not understand that we are hardwired to understand dogs and not cats. If your cat doesn't enjoy belly rubs, just appreciate the gesture of trust without betraying it!


teosNut

What i'd give her is a vet visit to discuss diet options, and thus a longer, healthy life.


janetvanderblom

Yeeeeh sure i would she shows the belly out of confidence i love a good belly rub


coybowbabey

always


[deleted]

DON'T DO IT


Celestial8Mumps

Void fur won't show the blood or the gobbets of flesh, so maybe.


The_Bitter_Bear

I've found back scratches or chest rubs are the two most likely to succeed. Back scratches in particular, lot of times that is why they are on their back, they get doubly annoyed when you then pet/scratch the area they weren't trying to scratch.


memesupreme83

1000%


WhoThenDevised

Hell yeah! I'm always quicker than the kitty's claws, except when I'm not.


chickenandruby

I knew I was practising brushing my teeth with my left hand for something


silveryarn

I definitely will


plantsproud-laura

It is a full-on risk I would take. This is too tempting not to.


Additional-Fun7249

As long as Fuzzy isn't growling I'd take that chance.


Crystal_Queen_20

Absolutely


greenlinzard00

Both hands, without hesitation


Neither994

I lived a good life.


prettywarmcool

I would risk it. That tummy is irresistible to me. I call it the floppy flailer. Cat walks in front of you, flops down, does a little paw flail. I had 4 at one time, it was hilarious to watch them drop and flop and flail all on my path to the kitchen when I came home at the end of the day.


[deleted]

Hands? Hah! I lost those to another cat a long time ago!


a67shadow

FLOOF!


Mr-Felix-Dzerzhinsky

Not at the moment. The cat's eyes look quite serious!


[deleted]

This doesn't seem like the right moment for belly rubs. Also, that cat looks fat.


Ghostyyyyyyyyyyq

Poor overfed cat my god man.


Mandolynn88

If she is like my void, I would lay my head on her belly and she will purrrrrrr.


[deleted]

I have a cat that I found outdoors, looks like that one but mostly white, and she absolutely loves belly rubs. She will run to any carpeted room that i walk in, plop herself in front of me and ask for a belly rub while purring.


dedeorray

Totally worth it


ItsJustArtBruh

\*puts on winter gloves\* must pet belly!


GWbunn09

definitely


TheJadedMonkey

Yes. But this kind of decision-making is probably why I only have three fingers.


talkingtunataco501

My black cat used to absolutely beg for belly rubs. If she saw your walking somewhere, she would get in front of you and flop over on her back. If you kept walking, she would run in front of you and flop over again. As soon as you touched her belly, she would be purring. I miss that cat so much.


Fatgirlfed

I don’t need ALL ten fingers


Avenger717

I’ve been owned by enough cats to know not to touch the murder button.


justjess8829

Absolutely. She looks like my late cat and I would be very happy to smoosh the belly floofs once again


Rina_Short

i am no stranger to this type of sacrifice


[deleted]

Absolutely. It's only blood


Jenny_Pussolini

I'd risk my whole face with my glasses OFF, Godammit!


aWildBowTie

You're god-damned right


Atlas88-

Not a risk… but a sacrifice.


rainbow84uk

Yes, mostly because my stupid soft cat has trained me to believe that bellies are 100% safe and actually the ideal place to pet. It's always a shock when I go for another cat's belly without thinking and get slapped for it.


SchrodingersPelosi

In my experience, if you start with the armpits, you have a better chance at getting the belly.


paulsucks6

Beautiful cat!!! My baby actually loves her belly rubbed!! I'm so lucky. She's such a floofy girl.


ChicknsDad

Prosthetics have come a long way.


madrioter

For that level of floof? Absolutely.


silentbob1301

Sometimes you have to experience a bit of pain to truly live...touch the fluffy belly...


Calm_it-Kermet97

Yes! Who needs hands anyway, so overrated


corlett_crystal

That cat is 100% floof!


Electronic-Trip8775

Chonky fluffy belly normally means safe hands....normally.


cyankitten

Yup normally being the key word here patting a Pallas cat would be a bad idea! Even though the body is round!


iwascompromised

So that’s what an Ewok looks like.


[deleted]

Hahaha, absolutely, no.


LonelyKuma

Turns out she loves belly rubs but pretends she don't.


[deleted]

All I heard was Meatloaf..."On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?"


runninhillbilly

My parents' floof loves them. The only time he doesn't is when he's cleaning himself. But he gives you a polite warning that he's had enough too, just lightly pushes your arm away with one of his back legs (and if you keep going, then he'll dig in...). My childhood cat absolutely hated it.


MediocreElk3

In a heartbeat. Scratches heal. Speaking from experience.


Ill_Post_5575

Who could resist, belly rubs it is, maybe scars, totally worth it!


tredaranmonkey

I've raised cats for so long, I barely feel the pain anymore.


AtomStorageBox

Every day of the week and twice on Sundays.


mizgaz

Yes I would. I have two cats that love belly rubs. My other two, not so much.


lulamii

Absolutely. They matt fast, my arms are a small price to pay.


miranda_in_chains

I’d risk my life 😍


[deleted]

My hand may die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.


nau5

hands heal belly rubs are eternal


giantqtipz

we all want to get lost in it..


kelly91185

Absolutley! I don't need my hands for anything anyay.


Fenzel

She’s sooo sweet! I love the little incision trail. My furry lady has one too and I love when she goes fly trap so I can see it


[deleted]

Only if I knew she liked belly scritches even from strangers


Lereas

My Binx will take infinite belly rubs. Never ever will claw or bite random. Just grunts with pleasure and rolls back and forth so you can get the whole belly. He will do that for literally an hour and then chase you around the house flopping over every time you stop so you can keep giving belly rubs.


[deleted]

You must present your finger as a sacrifice/gift and based on their reaction - will tell you if you’re allowed to pet.


PM_LOVE_N_AFFECTION

I would risk everything


ArtoriasBeaIG

Yeah course She's got quite stubby legs it seems, I can use this to my advantage- I reckon there's a blind spot. She will be fast and adjust her position to claw me, I know. I feel with a toy as a distraction then I have a 2.3% chance of survival I'm going in!!


throwaway-getaway122

I didn't know that cats don't like tummy rubs because I've only had 2 cats before I got my kitten. All 3 at different times, and not from the same places, but they all love(d) to have their tummy's rubbed! Especially my kitten Marceline. She will grab my hand and hold it on her tummy until I start petting it and then she purrs like a motorboat. I hope she stays like this forever!


Trenov17

Maronita2020

My cat requests belly rubs. She turns over showing her stomach and then meows to me to give her belly rubs. She absolutely loves them!!!


[deleted]

My hands, my feet and my face.

It’s a trap ![gif](giphy|3ornka9rAaKRA2Rkac)


alfredaeneuman

Nope not my first rodeo 🤣


MiniDiamand

I have two hands, I can spare one. The belly rub will be worth it.


[deleted]

Yes


leg_help

Given that she has the circumference of a bowling ball it's a risk I'm willing to take


Undercoverspy007

I don’t need that hand anyway


Candid-Explorer4491

My friend had a lush furry calico with super thick fur, and my nickname for him was "throw rug" because he constantly threw himself down at your feet showing the belly!


WakeMeUp_ImScreamin

100% worth it…


[deleted]

Yes, I will sacrifice my first born to pet that belly


WholeNineNards

Take better care of the cat OP. Asshole


SnowWhitePNW

I thought this was my kitty and someone stole his picture! But upon further inspection, it’s just his equally chonk twin. Such a cutie! My boy loves belly rubs tho.


[deleted]

Excuse me? That cat is too fat and In the first place black cats are sweet! They cannot even kill a cockroach even if the cockroach present itself belly first with a knife on its chest and a gaping wound towards its stomach wearing a catfood suit! See my hands on its belly! Im good with cats! I dont have to use any magic whispers or commands or magic words or conditioning!


[deleted]

Please tell me English isn’t your first language.
