When I stroke my little Puddy Cat from her head right down to her tail,she arches her back and pushes upwards

Question

Does she like the feel of my hand ? Or is she trying to push my hand away?

Thank you.

Answer 4

One of ours does it too, there's a sensitive spot on her back, just before where here tail starts, and she loves to be scratched there. It's called the "elevator but" effect :-)

Answer 5

well it just shows , when it comes to p**sy, you have the knack!

Answer 6

It's just what cats do, it's no biggie. She may like the feel of your hand or she may not. Only your cat knows.

Answer 7

She likes your hand, and is probably wanting you to scratch her back...

Keep it up.  If she didn't like it, she'd walk away-

Answer 8

Well, just like women. They like it! You should be getting a reasponce that they want you to do it to them again. I know my cat and my women does. lol

Answer 9

I had a cat until last year when he (at 21) had to be put to sleep.  I can remember exactly what you describe.  I used to stroke him about a thousand times a day, and he would do that sometimes - I would get to a certain part of his back and he would 'arch' and push upwards.  But he certainly didn't want me to stop!  He was a lovely, common marmalade tabby, and I would give almost anything to have him back for 10 minutes.

Answer 10

She likes the feel of your hand and is pushing upwards so she can feel even more of your touch. Also cats do this more when they are in season as when a male cat goes to mate with the female she will raise herself upwards so that the male can mount her and do his business with her,lol. Even neutered females show this behaviour quite often, it is perfectly normal.

Answer 11

This is a reflex. Cats do it when they're happy, but they can't help doing it. If she is purring, then that means she likes it...she definately isn't pushing you away, all cats do this.

Answer 12

All cats do that. When you get to near their butt, they stick it up. Dont know why, but they hate it.
