weird/funny (cat) thing happened to me last nite

Last nite around 2 am, I woke up with a start and found Spike KNEADING MY FACE!!!!

One of his front paws was on my forehead while the other front paw was on my right eye!! One of his back legs was on my chin and he started kneading my chin also with his back legs then started "rabbit kicking" my chin! I freaked out at that point and shoved him off my face!! I have two small scratches from this but not bad though..

Could u believe that though????? Isn't that WEIRD that he'd use his back legs to knead with also AND on the face! Now.. I wonder if he will do the same thing tonite??

I am USED to cats kneading my neck (3 of my cats are obsessed with kneading my neck) but not my face!

Yeah Mac tries to do that sometimes, but I immediately knock him off. Last time I let him he almost took my eye out.

Peace,
Brandon

Perhaps Spike liked your warm breath on his tummy!

What a wake up call!

The half-kid Tiger likes to knead my stomache.... Especially when I am laying down on my back watching the telly

Kionu does the same thing, only to my feet. If he's not kneading my feet, he's trying to hump my leg (which baffles me since he's neutered). If I push him off, he will whine (literally like a baby) and start kneading/humping again. I have to pick him up and put him on the ground about 6 times before he gets to the point where he's "over it". He's the weirdest cat.

Wow! That surprised me to hear that some of ur cats HAVE kneaded ur face also!!

However, I haven't heard anything about kneading with backlegs.. Do u know anyone else who have cat(s) who kneads with backlegs also??

Last nite Spikey kneaded my neck but not my face!!

Well, I've seen mine use their back legs. It's so cute.

I know what you mean! Anytime I lay down on the couch to watch tv, Zebra or Buddy immediately hops up on me and proceed to knead my neck for a LOOOONNNNGGGGG time! Sometimes BOTH would get up on me and try to knead on my neck at the same time. That is HILARIOUS to see them try to push each other off so they could knead my neck.

Spike tend to knead my neck when I'm trying to go to sleep in my bed.

Pepper is the only one who doesn't knead BUT she LOVES to be on my lap so anytime I lay down, she'd get on my lap!

One good thing about their kneading me is that it lets me know when it's time for me to trim their claws! When it starts getting painful and I start getting marks on my neck then I know it's time for a trim..
