Cat Facts: Editor's Letter My Secret Hug By Beth Adelman for Cat Facts |
 All my cats love to sit next to me on the couch and snuggle up around my legs in bed, but while Mei Mei will tolerate a short hug now and then, my tabbies really do not like to be held. That's a pretty common feline preference, because when a cat has all four paws off the floor she feels like she has totally lost control.
I do occasionally pick them up anyway, very briefly, because I believe my cats need to be accustomed to this so that I can plop them in a carrier, give them medicine or check them for problems. They need it. It's good for them. At least, that's the excuse I use. The fact is, sometimes I just want to pick them up and hug them to me. Sometimes they're so adorable and loving and sweet that I just have to. It's my little secret. Don't tell! |
