This is Possum. I’m glad she lets me rub her belly because she’s so soft.

      I had a calico who would do the same! It took years but eventually she went from being stand-offish to demanding them.

      My sister’s cat that’s become the family’s cat does the exact same thing. He’ll do the side flop, and if he isn’t getting adequate attention he’ll begin to wriggle really adorably.

      My BSH Daisy does this as well. Of an evening she’s started jumping on to my side of the bed and won’t let me in until she’s had her goodnight belly rubs. I’ve had to start going to bed earlier to make up the time!

    I would call that her side, not her belly. :P

    Both of mine love chest rubs. One will tolerate a short belly rub in the right mood, the other takes it as time to play!! without fail.

    I think that is ragdoll thing. My ragdoll always begs for belly rubs when I leave the room. But does not sit on a lap. She likes being around people but not on people :D

      I’m not sure of her breed. My sister found her on the side of the road when she was only a few weeks old.

      I always guessed she was a snowshoe, which is a Siamese mix breed. Her pattern is near identical to what comes up googling “snowshoe cat”. But I can’t be certain.
