It’s great. Not so great when it is on you and there are claws involved but aww…

Don't have a cat; never seen a cat do this; probably will not in the next 3 years. But this shit looks so sick

love this

hurts me when my kitties knead on bare skin but id never stop them. i find myself soothed by such blatant, tactile reassurance that they love me and feel safe with me. how wonderful!

his little claws do hurt me but i know he only does it out of love. i can’t begrudge him that. his form prevents him from communicating with me in many ways

top 5 worthy thing

i like when my cat does it to my tummy because i’m his mommy :)

i used to love when my kitty, oliver, would knead on my lap when he was sleepy. i hope he's running around in the clouds somewhere nice
