"Light, Love & Mojo"

Recently my cat started sleeping on my head on the pillow at night, I have terrible insomnia and the purring surrounding me just knocks me out in minutes, I love her so much

the belly thing totally depends on the cat. My cat definitely loves being pet there^^;

Everything Jackson said is 100% true HOWEVER, each cat is an individual. What some cats won't, don't tolerate others might, or might come to with the exception of over stimulating and the signs of an aggravated kitty. That is no different than the ways in which we communicate such things physically, such as drumming of fingers, hand on the hip etc. Dilated pupils is another good sign of aggravation (in a well lit room - no cause for wide dilation).

I say all this because it is our responsibility to "know" our kitty as an individual, it is only fair as our kitties and other pets such as the dog make every attempt to know us =) My boy Bram kitty, doesn't care about being touched anywhere "by me" or the dog he lived with (RIP Boot doggy). Thank you Jackson and MUCHO success !

I just got my self a cat yesterday and she's already getting along with me. Wish me luck for ahead of time

A feral I befriended (who was tough, so I allowed myself to learn from her) taught me all about the proper way to interact with cats. It was relationship building from the ground up, so I gave her the lead. It took months to get her inside and to stay all always paid attention to body language, and as a result, I never received an ounce of aggression from her. In the beginning if I moved certain ways, she would hiss...Id take away all eye contact and just allow her to calm down....once she knew I wasn't exhibiting any threatening behavior, Id see shed relax very quickly. Learned the right way to pet her....she didn't like any "reach around her head" petting, so I would cease on anything I perceived as something she didn't like. The relationship was always like this as time went on. The result was the greatest bond I ever had the pleasure to have with any animal. Sadly, she passed nearly a year ago. She had spent 9 to 10 years outside, with people who provided her a shelter and food, but never bonded with anyone the way she did with me. She provided me with a good deal of knowledge on who cats are, and how to develop a loving bond with them. She touched my heart forever.
My daughter and I adopted a cat last month, and the bond is growing, all because of my unique bond, with a very special cat.

My cat peed on my brothers bed bc he didn’t change the litter pan in over a week and knew it was his job lol

[brightnight]

So I'm sitting here watching Jackson speak about cat behaviors, and all I could think of was how much better the world is with him in it.
Soo much love JG,
so much!! 💕🐘

*cat pisses on my bed*
Cat: we compadrés

[BlueUncia]

So many people here are saying their cat lets them rub their belly. Congratulations! You have a very trusting and / or tolerant cat. :) Most cats aren't like that, so you should definitely appreciate that yours has such a great bond with you.

My cat used to bite me when I ate pasta in front of him, specifically fettuccine alfredo... I guess he just really disliked Italian

[philiponeill]

There are, of course, individual exceptions. My cat *adores* gentle belly rubs *from me.* Not anyone else - anyone else and she'll scratch and bite. With me, however, she purrs and makes kittie biscuits, and if I stop, she'll grab my hand with soft paws and pull it back to her tummy.

[animalist]

Great help! Sometimes you just can't help but go in for the belly rub

[Ashencrowe]

A year ago, I adopted a 1 year old feral cat, whom I named Buddy. This video was instrumental to our relationship. Sure, I have plenty of scars on my arms and ankles to tell the full story, but Buddy is now one of the sweetest, well-behaved little lover boys I've ever known. Jackson helped make this past year a joy. Thank you!

I’ve always heard that a cat “wagging” its tail meant it was agitated or annoyed, but my cat does this while purring and acting otherwise very happy and relaxed. She very frequently has at least the tip of her tail thumping around. She’s named Whip because of it. Has anyone else noticed this in their own cats?

[willowelliott]

After watching your videos I’ve been able to adjust how I treat my cats and they are happier than ever. My boy cat stopped peeing on everything as well and I’m super thankful for that. Thank you for making these informative videos your saving cats and humans relationships.

[starbaby]

when my cat goes on her back, i rub her belly and she loves it she’ll close her eyes and purr 🤷🏻‍♀️ but she’s 5months old so maybe it’s just her age or she just trusts me enough

[that_boi]

Wish me luck guys I'm getting my first cat!

[richardbraakman]

The best interpretation of the tail sweeps I've seen is that it's what they do when they have to make a decision. They do it when deciding whether to go out, too. And when deciding whether to tolerate more petting, which is when it looks like annoyance.

[sMusicLover]

My problem is I look at humans with "cat colored glasses".

[heg_egg]

When my cat exposes her stomach, she meows and purrs when I pet her. I even roll her around with my hand. She's my sister from another species <3
