Why do we cats so often get what we want? Because we go right out and ask for it! Take these kitties for example — when they want attention and some petting, they don’t just sit around and wish! They take action! First up is this persistent Scottish Fold.

This kitty is even more insistent! He clearly won’t take no for an answer! In fact, his human actually turns off the video camera to pet him!

This last video is entitled, “World’s Most Polite Cat,” and as you can see, politeness gets you nowhere! He has to drop the etiquette to get what he wants. This cat should take my advice: jump on the desk first, then poke multiple times until human acquiesces. There is no room in the kitty canon for Emily Post.

Awwwwwww! Those are cute. Brulee will tap Mom Paula’s leg when she wants to be petted.
I do that to TW when she’s on the computer. I’ll stick my paw through the back slats of the chair and tap her butt or back. She’ll usually walk me into the kitchen then.
As usual Sparkle, a Sunday trifecta of awesomeness! These kitties, especially #1 & #3 we so polite it is hard to believe they are felines. In fact, part of me suspects they might be chihuahuas in fur suits.
Billie Burke was 54????????? Unfreakingbelievable! The Human, I confess, has the tiniest of doubts but she was soon set straight after a moment’s googling. 54?? Shocking! My Human didn’t look that good at 34! or 24!
Yep dat’s what Angie does at night to da lady. She reaches out and tries to pull her next to her. I jus do lots of da pattin’ speshully at dinner time.

Heck yeah. We even get mum while she is trying to sleep. If her hand is out, we come up and rub it or head butt it until she wakes up and gives us pets.
Sparkle, I use the One Claw technique. You know, when you everso gently pierce your human over and over and over until they give up and do what I want.
Those kitties ask so nicely!
HA! That first video is me!! I usually pet Tommy to pet me. She usually gets the hint—especially when I ‘love nip’ her fingers…..

Cute videos. Flynn taps me on the arm or the leg when he wants some petting.
LOVE those…..
Especially that adorable Scottish Fold!!! I just love how his paw curves to tap her on the arm.
: )
hee hee! You know, the Scottish Fold was pretty polite; he’s just got a better trained person than the kitty in the third video 🙂 All of us tend to be more like kitty #2 😀

The second kitty is my favorite. What a floofy tail! Great videos.
As MomKatt is fond of saying, “Ya don’t ask – ya don’t GET!” Thanks for the giggles & “Awwws!”
Though MomKatt said that Polite Cat was SOOOOO gorgeous she didn’t understand how that hooman could NOT have been all over him/her, just pulling him/her into her lap and lavishing him/her with attention!
PURRS!

I just jump in mommy’s lap and nibble on her fingers as she tries to type. “Ouch,” she says. But really, what’s more important? Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrs.
My two are like that – they will tap, or head butt or just sit quietly by the side of the chair – waiting ever so politely for pets…and then sometimes not.
Those videos sure made me smile!!!
What a lovely bunch of cats. Fui will tap our mum in a similar way. Sometimes he bites her head from the back of the couch, which doesn’t get a great response.
LOL, some cats are more gifted at asking but all have their own purrs of persuasion!
And they are doing a fine job of it too!
All are irresistible! Have a great Sunday!
Mahony does the very same thing as that first video. She is persistant. She will tap tap until I give in. Great videos. Have a great day.
