Not at all sure many cats would appreciate this!

I value my skin too much to try this with my 2 lovelies! Grin

I'll wait until he's finished his mouse then don oven gloves and other armour.

PinkSparklyPussyCat · 04/06/2018 16:05

I'm happy to try. It's been nice knowing you if I don't make it!

Toddlerteaplease · 04/06/2018 17:26

My two are tolerant for about 30 seconds. The best cuddles I get are at the vet!

I am glad I have a teddy bear like cat. every day is hug day.

Allergictoironing · 04/06/2018 18:03

What, hug Boycat even MORE? He gets at least 4 proper on the bed lying down curled up together cuddles a day at the moment, plus at least 3-4 next to me on the sofa belly rubs. Good thing I work from home now, though dunno how he will cope when work picks up a bit more...

Well at least that wasn't my favourite pair of marigolds...

Mine's atypically cuddly. Loves being picked up, hugged, tummy rubs, the more attention the better.

UtterlyUnimaginativeUsername · 05/06/2018 09:36

Mine live for cuddles. We get shouted at if we don't provide enough of them.

Heroo · 05/06/2018 10:05

I wasn't home yesterday so am deferring hug-your-cat-day to today.

Goin to get home, give him a big squishy cuddle and bury my face in his fur and tell him I love him.

And ignore the look of distaste and the shrug of 'ugh get off me woman' when I finally put him down.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 05/06/2018 10:48

I wish I had a cat to hug :(. I'll have to make do with your photos

earlybirdhasanap · 05/06/2018 11:00

I probably wouldn't have eyes left if I tried to hug my cat.

Ollivander84 · 05/06/2018 11:04

Yet - Ollie sends a BIG hug and says he likes being squished weirdo

Raven88 · 05/06/2018 11:05

I'll have to check with the cat first. She is particular about when I am allowed to cuddle her. If I pick the wrong moment it's claws at dawn.

Ollie is just too cute!

I told Karl about this and got this response.

My cat quite likes hugs I think. DD in particular likes hugging her.

Mine loves cuddles and would spend all day being cuddled and carried if she could!

YetAnotherSpartacus · 05/06/2018 11:42

So many gorgeous black cats! Weeds - TUMMY RUBS - the most dangerous pet of all...

^I don't know which bit to comment on first - the smugly happy face, the huge paws or the rude bit.

Wolfiefan · 05/06/2018 14:05

Not unless I want to lose my face!
Surely whoever came up with this has never met a cat?! Confused
