Kitty Cats Making Biscuits

He Kneaded Me

Did your cat ever knead you like you were a piece of dough? All five of my cats have. Jeoffry is the biggest kneader, then Boudicca.

Why Do Cats Knead?

I know that kneading starts when they were kittens. However, I wanted to provide you with more information and searched for it on Perplexity AI. When I typed in why do cats, the next word on top of the search was knead. I’ll list the five main reasons, and you can learn more about cats’ kneading here.

1. Nursing instinct

2. Comforting and relieving stress

3. Being affectionate toward their human servant

4. Marking their scent

5. Getting their bed ready

Whatever the reason, when kitty kneads you, it’s adorable. Purr, purr, knead you. Except when they stick you with a claw. Ouch!

Here’s a one-minute and forty-six-second video of Jeoffry kneading his momma-human wearing her bathrobe. A purrfect outfit for making biscuits and protecting human skin.

FYI, Jeoffry didn’t fall off my lap. Isn’t it amazing how cats can be right on the edge of something and not fall off?

Blessings and Purrs,
