Willow likes belly rubs, when she's in the mood. It's not always easy to tell when she is in the mood, but it happens fairly often. Logan, the last kitty we had before her, hated to have his belly touched and would use his teeth to let us know if we made an attempt. We adored him anyway, of course, but I'm glad Willow will let me give her belly rubs at least some of the time.

Very cute pic, thanks for sharing your handsome boy with us.

They lure you to pet that lovely fur, and then suddenly *chomp.* My Pixie is like that; Othello just seems to want a belly rub.

To tell me when he wants one. When he is done 99%of the time I just know he's done. If I am oblivious he thumps his tail 2 times he is done. He has never used claws or teeth once. We have a way of communicating with each other unlike any other cat servant relationship I have ever had. We just know what each other wants. Its uncanny. Friends say we have a psychic link.Sometimes he stays in his belly up position and falls asleep.
