I love it when cats on the street come over to be petted. And how my own cats are like "oh, you're finally home, give us food now and then you can fuck right off, I'm going to sleep"

There was a cat that lived behind a job I had years ago. It was a mean little shit and wouldn't let anyone near it without hissing and running off. I was a smoker back then and I guess me being out there smoking everyday and just not bothering the cat, It learned I wasn't a threat. Eventually It came and chilled next to me on my breaks, then after a month of that finally let me pet it. The cat would still hiss at anyone else that tried to pet it but me, was pretty awesome.
Antoine de Saint-Exupéry was right all along.
If nothing else, it means they haven't had too many bad experiences with humans, which is nice.
That sort of trust should be rewarded with belly rubs and by finding all their hard-to-reach itchy spots.
Especially for cats. 😽
Cats are not worth more than any other animal.

Charlotte suggests you reconsider.
You can never really know until you give one a belly rub! 😽
Man I wish people where that happy if I try to convince them to pet me.
Not sure if you're being silly, but that's like 90% of pup play with a praise kink.
I have given so many adult humans scritches and would love to give you pets.
It may have started as a variation of a gimp suit, but pup play today is all about going to concerts and to parks and adults playing together and expressing their individuality with a colorful, (maybe customized) 'hood' (what's worn over the face). The sex and BDSM stuff is generally de-emphasized or often prohibited (unless you go out of your way to find that stuff).
It's great for people with anxiety or celebrity, the freedom to let yourself be "not seen as yourself" for a bit is empowering.
Hey! Come here...
*psp!* *psp!* *psp!*
I think that only works on big tittie goth girls.
Here's hoping!
Best part of my day every single day is being greated by my dog when I get home from work. The little midget waits for me all day and comes to life the second I pull into the drive way.

Can't relate.
The next time that you see a cat in your neighbourhood, just sit down and see if they're interesting in coming over to inspect you or get some pats.
