Such a look

[@ciberkid22]

It takes time to set priorities straight

[@littlekitsune1]

It's actually kind of surprising how so few people think to actually ask an animal's permission to touch them. They skip past the introductions and just expect the animal to feel graced by their touch alone or something. It reminds me of all the stories I've heard from pregnant women about how they hate how people suddenly think they can just go up to them and touch them, LOL.

[@CherylBerryl]

Exactly!

[@semperfi818]

Indeed so, or like the folks of European descent who think it's purrfectly cool to touch the hair of an African-American with whom they are at most marginally acquainted: in short, incredibly presumptuous, and downright rude and dismissive of the other being's dignity. What gives, people? You say you "love kitties,"and then you treat a sensitive, living cat as if s/he were a stuffed toy. Especially a cat, whose dignity and sense of self are immensely powerful things, should be treated no less presumptuously than one would treat another human; I recall Jackson's teachings re the three-part kitteh "hello," used when meeting a cat for the first time, and to this day can report that I have never upset a kitteh when I have used that simple, respectful greeting, but have made many feline friends once they could tell by my approach that I meant them no harm and could be trusted. If one always lets the kitteh lead the encounter, showing where s/he wishes to be touched (if at all), one will most likely be rewarded by the trust and friendship of said kitteh, which is no small thing.

[@Gunngirl]

Even more stupid is they go in all aggressive and when the cat swats or scratches or hisses then they want to kill it. Never taking responsibility for getting in their space.

It’s so nice seeing you reinforce something that I already instinctually knew about cats - introducing yourself and saying hi and inviting them to be friends. Cats communicate so much in their body language and behaviours so I find it sad when people ignore that and then get upset when the cat doesn’t want to be around them or be touched in a certain way, and then the person patting them things the cat is unreasonable.

[@forheavenssakeidonthavewif2657]

Aromanthia - has it occurred to you that puss may have trained you to tickle their chin when they roll over? The line you use may just indicate to puss that you're up for it and your aura is non-threatening. I'm so in tune with my feline now that I just have to say an instruction for her to obey, albeit sometimes with a grumpy meow. I'd be surprised if she understands English, but she reads me easily.

Jackson, on the ear tip thing you are spot-on. Just like when we press the webbing in between our thumb and forefinger on cats when you press on their ear tips like that it's been scientifically shown to release endorphins in the brain. One of my favorite things to do to my kitties! I have found it works especially well when they are in stressful situations, like at the vet, to help calm them down.

[@heatherkoolaid]

Interesting! Thanks.

[@catpoke9557]

I actually didn't know people liked having the webbing between their thumb and forefinger to be pressed.. Interesting. Is it a massage type thing?

Has saved my life many times from low blood sugar levels. She is my mini me for sure. Love my orange and white tabby cat! And oh boy she loves being petted. Think mine might be part human and dog.

I volunteer at this very cat cafe and I was so excited to see Doc, he’s the only cat in the video who is still there and not yet adopted. He has made a lot of progress towards being able to trust humans, but he still seems to be easily overwhelmed. I know he has a sweet loving goofy personality inside him, but it’s not really showcased when he’s so preoccupied with hissing at any hand that comes near him and running away to take refuge in his box. I firmly believe that he would be happier and more likely to let his relaxed positive aspects of his personality shine if he were in a home with just a few people, no small kids, no dogs and maybe just one or a few other cats, to match his energy. If anyone out there lives in LA and might be interested or knows someone who might be, please come by the cat cafe to meet Doc and talk with staff about adoption. Thanks Jackson, amazing video as always! :)

Cats are really very easy to "read." Thank you, Jackson, for explaining their "language" to those who don't know how to read it yet. My can did not like her back touched at all when I first got her; maybe a previous bad experience. I patiently touched a little more and a little more over the first few months she was with me until she now allows a full body pet, which I limit to the length of time she finds acceptable. Beside the head pets and scratches, she loves (also time limited) a good belly rub. The body language and ears and tail all will guide a person to exactly what his or her highness accepts. I love your tutorials!

Thank you Jackson! I have always respected my cats’ space, to the point that I never even picked them up unless they showed an interest in being held that way.

We are bigger and louder, the least we can do is let them decide if we are allowed to pet them.

[@kellyriddell5014]

I'm working on socializing a litter of feral kittens that a cat had and left on my porch. They're now about 10 weeks old, and I'm trying to walk that line between "forcing" them and respecting their boundaries. We've gotten to where they can be petted, picked up, etc. to the extent that's necessary to be safe for vet visits and things like that. Now I'm trying to work on backing off some of that mandatory touching and just offering them treats when they come by. None of them enjoy being petted yet, though. I do think there is some forcing you have to do when it comes to feral kittens because they have to be somewhat socialized, and since humans are scary to them, they aren't going to just magically get out of their own comfort zone.

Way more people need to see this perspective when it comes to petting cats, as well as dogs. So many people pet animals as a selfish thing, because they want to, as if animals exist solely for us to enjoy them. Animals are beings with their own wants, needs and preferences. Petting is something you do when you have rapport with an animal, and it should be enjoyed equally by both of you.

never had a cat before but this helped a lot. my cat loves chin rubs

Thanks Jackson! When I come home, or my cat(s) walk by, I bend down and stroke his back. Owning 2 for 9 years, I (we) thought it odd he would bend his back down to the floor and walk away. Now I know why. :) 💚💜🌴😎

If your cat evades touching her back /spine it might be pain from arthritis or something else.

I learned this from you last week, and while I happened to be out house hunting, the cat that lived in the house I was looking at came over to me, I held my fingers out as you do and let her decide if she wanted further contact. 😉 Thank You, you're advice is taken by multiple members of my family.😁 makes the cats in our lives alot happier.

Just love you. Your videos are so helpful. I am definitely a cat person.

I’m not very good with cats, thanks for explaining this.

It's learning a new language when you interact with any animal - watch them "talk" to each other if you can and modify what they do to work for you.
