This is how Rufus asks for belly rubs. No it's not a trap; he's a cat running on dog software.

I wouldn't be able to accomplish anything in life with a cat like Rufus πŸ˜„

You're absolutely correct, I don't get anything done. πŸ˜‚ If anything, sometimes I risk running late for work because I get so distracted with him begging for hugs.

I have a cat like Rufus, and accomplishing things is hard. Pretty much have to keep her out of my office. She also likes to headbut my chin to rub against my stubble.

Twinsies! I love standard issue cats so much, it's like having clones.

My pal Bran is a dog kitty too! He'd take belly scratches all day long!

I don't think cats are supposed to bend that way.

All ways are the correct way for a cat to bend! They are non-Euclidian by nature.

My dog like going back and forth between our legs. Maybe they got each others software accidentally.

I hope you gave him all the belly rubs! So soft.

If he had it his way, I wouldn't ever stop giving him belly rubs.

This is how my cat asks if I want new holes in my arm.

My old cat Mr Kits used to do that and every time he'd ensnare me with bites and scratches when the belly rubs became too much.
I was always wiling to oblige with the belly rubs however.

Look after Rufus for us all and always rub that tummy when they want it.

Rufus is so hungry for affection and love that he actually gets more upset when I stop the belly rubs.

My Mum's cat at home is kind of like this. She doesn't do it often, but she will sometimes roll over to let you lightly rub her belly

No pics but my 2 cats (both 13) love to get belly scratches from me! But I've been their Cat Mom since they were 13wks old, with at most another adult living with me, so I've earned their trust!

What kind of cat is Rufus?

emolr 6 points 3 years ago

He's just a cat. Cats who have no certificate or documentation of pedigree don't have breeds because cats reproduce so fast.

Ah, with the ears and longer hair and dog software, I was wondering if he were part Maine coon or maybe Norwegian Forest cat.

That is a full-breed floof.

I think the technical term would be a tabby domestic longhair.

That's fancy cat words for "tiger-colored floof of indeterminate ancestry".
