Thanks Belinda! Tiger's the only one that does it in our house (and only to me), and as he's the one with the emotional probs, I figured what AF said made sense---but even if were true in Tiger's case, it's clearly not the case for all cats  :>) I hope it does just mean he wants petting. I tried Nina's trick--touching Pookie's tongue, and yup, he pulled it back in sharpish. Maybe it's just an "old man" thing in Pookie's case--he's a frail but feisty 15 year old. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Belinda Sauro Sent: Monday, November 28, 2005 9:01 AM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: o/t2 x feline behavior Qs (re: a)Anitra Frasier's book states that a cat that presses its forehead against an object is in pain.)  >>>>>> That's ridiculas, my Joey does this all the time, as well as all cats do this with each other.  It is a way of showing affection and love. Joey also leaves his tongue out and sometimes for long enough that the tip dys out, there is nothing wrong with him and the vet isn't worried about him doing either. -- Belinda Happiness is being owned by cats ...
