So chuffed. Neither of mine have ever really slow blinked at me. Tripped over Fatty but Instead of running off she just sat and we had a proper conversation! 😻😻

Does someone want to to tell me about what this is.

Am I missing out on something wonderful?

cat kisses. we have a 2 year old that we raised from 5 weeks and she likes to stare at me and slow blink until she falls asleep. also a rescue kitty who is 6 months and had been badly treated - he loves the kisses.

mind you, they both also like having a paw held. i have too much time on my hands, and too many cats!

I didn't know this until last night. I did with our two this morning and they did it back. It made me sad though as our big fluffy boy used to do this all the time at us. He went missing in May, no signs of him. I wish I'd known he was telling us how happy he was :(

I am so doing this later with the Snowshoe. He's a nervy sort so if he gets it that will be a huge win.

It's so lovely. I get lots of blinks from my little puddin'. She sat and stared at me early this morning as I was popping out, as if to say "where ya goin' at this time of the day?" Then gave me a couple of winks. She's a little pet.

rebel sorry to hear this. Hope he comes home to you soon Flowers

I don't think he's coming back. He went missing once before and we did posters, nighttime searches etc. We had 3 sightings and found him after 2 weeks. This time we've had nothing. Not a single sighting :(

I think my other cats are fed up of me blinking at them now :)
