Lukey is the king of tummy rubbers, he literally collapses in front of you thudding down onto the carpet almost like he's been shot  :evillaugh:  Riley likes it too but he prefers it when I sling him over my shoulder so he's laying on his back, back feet at chest height and the rest of him arched over the wrong way draping down my back, the spare hand is for patting and rubbing the tummy vigourously  :Luv:

This is what I'm forced to rub EVERY day, it's so stressfull  ;)



You shouldn't post photos like that, when me the tummy muncher is about. ;D

Thai & Zubin love their tummy rubbed, any time any where. Zebedee Boo, depends what mood he is in and who is watching.

I have a foster that takes it one step further!! She loves belly rubs, then headbuts you with her face (you do have to watch your eyes!!), and when you pick her up, her paws go round your neck like she is giving you a hug!! Am doing well with having fosters who like it. George shows his belly lots, but is a bit skittish when you approach him.

Shanti hates it and bunny kicks at best if you try!  Meesh rolls over sometimes and enjoys a good tummy stroke though :)  Sabby is the funniest - like last night, there he was flat out on his back fast asleep and, well, you know, it's hard to resist isn't it?  When I start rubbing his tum he stretches out even more, purring like a tractor, and gets full-on 'curly paw' syndrome .. until ooops!  he fully wakes up, realises what's going on, and sits up all of a sudden and frantically starts cleaning himself!! "You didn't think I actually enjoyed that, did you?  Well, I didn't - honest!"   :rofl:

Max likes tummy rubs, he'll flop down at the top of the stairs when we come in demanding cuddles.  If he's chilled out, he also lets you blow rasberries on his tummy or lots of kisses  :Luv:

He'll only tolerate it for a while though before head/hands/arm gets a bunnykicking frenzy  :evillaugh:

Well Sasa is same as Toby and Lexy  ;D

Franta a loves it and will roll on his back and then I am excpected to know what he wants, chin stroke, tummy stroke or under the arms tickle, and if i get it wrong he will catch hand and move it to place he wants  :rofl: :rofl:

Ducha is a bit shy but he doesnt mind and Misa does not mind so much but just tends never to be in the right position. He is woried he may have some tangles and I may get out the comb  :evillaugh: :evillaugh:

Custard loves a tummy rub and will collapse in front of you in hope of one, often nearly tripping you up in the process. If you ignore he she twists and turns until you give in  :Luv: Smeagol offers him tum from time to time and will often roll over if you start fussing him. Batfink isn't keen at all sometimes but quite likes in other times. If you go near Marmite's tum she will give you a warning growl, then well, you're toast! Milo the kitten thinks everything is a game so just 'gets' your hand back. When he's all tuckered out he likes a rub though  :Luv2:

Meeko hates it, at all times. He'll wrap his paws round my wrist and bite me. Tigger doesn't seem to like it much but licks me instead of bites. Belle gives me the bunny kicks sometimes if I try, and Daisy doesn't seem bothered one way or the other!

Ging doesn't mind having his tummy rubbed but when he's had enough he'll let you know by gently biting your hand :shify:

Grwndi ain't keen on them,doesn't bite or anything,just when you touch his tummy he'll get up and move  :evillaugh:

Rameses sees tummy rubs as a change to eat and beat your fingers,but then he's only 8 months  :evillaugh:

Our bridge babe Pwt loved to expose her belly but if you got up to rub it she'd run off,she was such a weird cat,she hated being held and anybody grabbing her,she would only like head strokes and behind the ears rub :Luv2:
Love me,love my animals.

I Can occasionally rub and kiss Molly's belly, but not really through her choice, just her laziness!! Felix was wonderful with it, couldnt pick him up, but loved belly rubs, and Marmalade loves them. Zia will tolerate them for a couple of seconds, and Rolo is a bit indifferent to it really.

Binky would let you do anything - such a softy he was! Xanthe likes it on her terms occasionally, she even let me blow raspberries on her belly once or twice but you have to be sure she is in the mood or she'd have your hand / face off in a flash!

Jet (angel) would have our hands off for trying. she would snooze on the bed leaving her tum exposed to temptation and would claw us if we tried.
Garfield will let you stroke him and then taps your hand with his paw to divert attention to his tum, he's so furry his tum almost hides your hand.

Marco does the running ahead and rolling on to his back for a rub Polo occasionally likes a rub and Stig is starting to copy Marco but he can still be a bit nervous at times

Oliver sports that tummy to kill not without a reason, he revels in getting it rubbed and caressed, he would lay with me on bed all stretched out on his back and go prrrrrr prrrr prrrr for a loooong time, sometimes for the entire length of a film that we are watching at that time while I massage his tummy. :Luv:

Occasionally though he could suddenly switch into a playful mode and start nipping and bunnykicking at my hand too!! :Crazy:

Both mine do too, although Sooty (RIP) definitely didn't like it.  Milly particularly enjoys being brushed on her tummy, she rolls right over and waits  :wow:

Yup - both of mine do.  Although Mosi does see a tummy rubbing hand as a potential toy and tries to play with it  ;D

Cody does, in fact he runs over and throws himself on his back at our feet with 4 legs in the air for us to give him a belly rub & the rougher the better !!   Far more like a dog than a cat although my other 2 would put up with that at a push but not particularily enjoy it whilst my previous cat would have ripped my arm off at the socket if i'd even thought about touch his tummy as would many other felines i've met.

What about all your cats, do they like this or not ?
