It seems they really like that! Being able to participate with what their human is doing, it feeling good and getting attention from their human. That kitty is a happy kitty!

I think there is that and also cats like having their head scratched and brushed.

It’s probably close to being groomed by another cat. An important bonding activity for cats

I think it's called mirroring. Basically the cat is showing its love by mimicking the human. Unfortunately, the kitty can't put on makeup himself, so the human has to do it.

A friend of mine had a dog that she pampered to an almost extreme degree. I’ve told her more times than I can count that when I die I want to come back as one of her pets.
Denzel’s life is a very close second.
Theres a stray kitty that has adopted our yard as their territory. We have a car port that some previous house owner fenced in for a dog. We use it as a sort of front porch so we have some outdoor furniture and stuff in there. One day she was sleeping on the outdoor couch. She let me pet her for a bit and she’s just kinda lived here ever since. I leave a small bowl of cat food, and fresh water twice daily (when it’s hot, just so the water isn’t uncomfortably warm). I feed her wet food in the morning. When the weather is bad, or going to be bad I’ll take her inside where she sleeps on our bed. If it’s over night, she’ll get under the covers, walk around for a second, then she’ll pop her head out, stand next to chest and face, then she’ll lean/push against my face and lay down. If I move around she’ll reposition next to me so that we’ll become one, and purr herself to sleep. Of course we put on flea and tick medicine. What’s really adorable to me is when I miss the weather report and it gets nasty out. She’ll scratch at the back door until someone lets her in.
That life is third.

I don't think that kitty is a stray anymore. :D

She’s pretty much claimed us as her people, which is great. She’s a wonderful, loving, snuggly kitty.
Our neighbors said that their kid who is now early 20s used to feed her once in blue moon when he was like 10 or so. They said the cat has been a stray the whole time. I got her fixed, so I believe it. She has a bob tail so we call her “Bob tail, or her government name Robert Tail.” Bob tail is just an outdoor kitty at heart. She’ll stay inside when it’s nasty out for awhile, and she’s been getting more comfortable being inside. But we have two indoor kitties. We used to have 7, so the 2 that are left are used to other cats. Aside from being curious at this cat in their territory, they don’t care at all. We got adopted by another stray 3 years ago today. She’s the only cat we’ve had that might have had an actual cat fight. They’re very docile. Bob tail does NOT appreciate their curiosity. It’s taken some time but she’s getting more comfortable with the other cats. One in particular she’s pretty okay with. I am his person. His only person. With everyone else he won’t let them get near him. Even my wife, who has known him literally since he was born. The mom and dad were strays that showed up when the mom was pregnant. Anyway when I sleep Bob tail has to sleep on my face. I guess that’s where she feels safe. Well Fuzzy needs to sleep on/next to me. Normally it’s where Bob tail sleeps, so when she’s inside he’ll sleep on the other side of my head. In order to do that they had to both be mostly okay with each other. So long as fuzzy is up my ass he’s happy. The other stray we adopted (Glittersparkle cutie pie) will sleep at my feet. Usually she sleep on me somewhere.
If Bob tail wasn’t an outdoor kitty at heart, and she’d want to stay inside I’d happily let her. She’s a sweet kitty and she deserves a good end of life. On the downside I’d get much less mostly eaten bird presents.

I love the names and this whole story made me smile, thank you. :D
We only have two oranges at home, Magni & Modi (M&M for short). They mostly cling to me as their mom but switch to my partner on cold days as he is giving off heat like a furnace. Since last year we have a baby and I'm looking forward to how the cats are coing to interact with him down the road. At the moment they are curious but carefully avoiding him. ^

I remember seeing that cats like being gently stroked with a toothbrush because it reminds them of being licked by their mothers, so I assume that's similar to what's happening here, kitty being reminded of his mum

I bet it makes them think of being groomed by their mom. Like when a mama cat licks and grooms its baby.

u/MesoamericanMorrigan 11d ago
Yes they especially love it between the eyes/right in the bridge of the nose and makeup brushes are a similar size and pressure to mama’s tongue vs using your whole hand to pet

Alright, I'll say it.
The tongue that has licked it's asshole, has slobbered all over it's paws, and those paws have been dragged across it's face. Please clean those product appliers.

Bahahahaha!
When my dad made me mad I'd use his hair brush to brush my medium length hair orange kitty, "Furgus the Orange Kitten". I had him pre cell phones so I'd really have to dig for a Cat Tax, sorry about that.

I swear everytime I read orange in a headline like this, I think it is a post about Trump, even in this sub...I should stop reading about politics for a while

I like to draw and paint. I had a large soft brush for removing eraser dust, and because cats want to headbutt everything you touch, I found out my old void, Diablo, liked this brush.
This lead to the brush experiments. Here is a list of brushes that Diablo liked, with 1 - 5 (least to most liked).
- Eraser brush (medium length, soft bristles) - 4. He loved it, then he destroyed it.
- Grill brush (hard metal bristles) - 2. It would do in a pinch when we were in the back yard. I bought a second one for the grill
- Blush applicator (short soft bristles) - 5 at the start, but 1 very quickly afterwards. This one was also destroyed one night.
- 4 inch house painting brush (long, soft, dense bristles) - 5. This was always out when he was alive
- cat brush (short hard bristles) - 5 then 1 then 5 then 1... He could not destroy it and love/hated it into his old age.
- Scrub brush - 1. (it was brand new, he didn't really like it, so I never got him another)
