...you scratch the base of a cat's tail or lower back and they make extremely funny sounds, open and close their mouth really fast, and move their head back and forth? I've seen this before on some TV shows but never actually seen a cat do it until I discovered my mother's cat does this. It's very funny, but I hope I'm not hurting the cat in any way.
Does anyone know what this is and why they do it? Is it like tickling them or does it actually hurt them? Does anyone else have cats that do this?
I tried it on my cat and her eyes glaze over and she starts to move her head back and forth, then, out of nowhere, she proceeds to shred my hand (obviously telling me "that's enough.").
