SwimOdin Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 So my cat is about 7 months old, she’s a tuxedo, and she loves me. She might be in love with me. I don’t have experience with a cat that wants to literally put her lips on my lips. She licks my nose, lips, and ears and even nibbles on my ears. Is this normal? She is my sixth cat (as in, in my life; she’s my only current cat), and this is behavior I’ve never seen. Do y’all’s cats do this? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stilgar Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Seems pretty normal to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobdog Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Yeah, that seems perfectly normal. Cats will bond to people in differing degrees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyBeardmane Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 Katana likes to lick and bite my nose. Some cats just like to be affectionate in different ways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katt_goddess Posted December 12 Share Posted December 12 That is a form of grooming. Two cats that are friends will clean each others faces so cleaning their favorite hooman is the same thing. I think tuxies are particularly into grooming their hoomans because Potato Bug likes to pull on the hair on the top of my head which I've never had a cat do. She hasn't gone full face licking yet but she does get extra affectionate in the early morning when she wants to be snuggly right in my face. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's normal for some cats to show this behavior, especially when you take them in as small kittens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwimOdin Posted Sunday at 10:29 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 10:29 PM Thanks for all the advice everyone, it’s good to know this is normal behavior. She’s quite a bowling ball. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
