Why do cats roll over? Is it to be subordinate to you, or have their stomach rubbed?

Both our cats do this, sometimes it means 'belly rub' :bigthumb:   other times I get' bunny kicked'

  Ziggy tumbles right over head first :lol:  .
:yeah: It really depends on the cat and its mood at any given moment. The cat may be inviting closer contact, but it can also be a defensive gesture. It doesn't show subordination like it does with dogs.
