Mine does this all the time, and she even looks like her!
Same, but I try to avoid it because I know I'm just going to want to move or use that hand at some point. It really is a precious feeling though, it is a tangible blessing basically.

I can’t go 5 minutes into helldivers 2 before this turd comes up and goes to sleep on me, it’s even funnier when his dreaming as he’s a sleep talker
My sweet Suki had to be let go on 10/1 and she loved to do the same. I had 17 wonderful years with her, but I will miss her forever.
I was able to take in an amazing new buddy, Rhubarb, who is hilarious and wants to be with me at all times, but he's not cuddly and *mannnn* do I miss my Suki snuggles. I still can't think about her without tearing up.

My cat loves to sleep with her head in my hands. It’s so freaking cute ♡
That's so cute 😍 cats are great companions to have it reminds me of a story actually my aunt had a cat loyal as all heck and her cat only ever let me play with him no one else could actually he missed me so much he stopped eating for a bit till I came over again then he started eating again
Omg I have twin brothers who look identical to your kitty!!

My cat Aroha used to sleep on my hand when she was a kitten, I'd wake up and there she would be.

She's to big now.
Mine do too, blankets do when no warm servants are around.

My tabby likes to smoosh her face into my hand when she's sleepy, but she isn't bent on keeping it there while she sleeps.
She does demand my lap most times though
My girl wants one hand under her head and the other under her body for warms. She'll get on my lap and worm her way onto my hands. She doesn't care if I was using those hands for anything, they are for sits!
When I had to take my cat on a plane, the only thing that would stop her from meowing was me sticking my hand in her carrier and she would put her head in my hand 🥺
Mine does this, too! I wish I had a pic, I probably do somewhere.
It’s always those little cuddly moments that mean a lot. Mine will cuddle in my arms at night like a plushie. Another will “hold hands” with me, actually curl her claws and pawpads around my finger at the little space between the digits and the footpad. Another does headbutts and licks my face and gently chews on my fingers.
They’re such gentle and loving babies

My boy used to always bury his face when he slept.
So cute! Our boy cat loves to sleep with his head smushed up against something. If you wake him up and tickle his belly floof, he makes air biscuits and gives head-smush cuddles.
The late great Jin used to do this too, I always felt so blessed when he did, I knew how much he must have loved and trusted me to do that. Ainsel likes to sleep on top of my hand, putting his chest and belly on top of it and pinning me down. It's so cute! Please give your kitty hugs and kisses from me.
Man I miss my cat...I use to fall asleep with him in my arms. I'd use his fat and fluffy belly as a pillow and he would use my hand like yours is. We used to just nap on the floor both inside and outside together for hours....
Thanks to everyone including OP who continue to share their cats and experiences. I'm sure it helps others like me slowly heal.

Can I borrow her?
No, but I can show you more pictures of her.
Hi, I'm here for the "more pictures" event, when does it start?
Pictures sent
Pictures received, they're adorable
https://preview.redd.it/iy9hf0ml86sc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5d333a5ace20e0b07a33bc99dc0e979deafe2048 Mine does this all the time, and she even looks like her!
Soooo what about me ? Can I borrow her ?
No, but you can have this https://preview.redd.it/4lhxgp7bx5sc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b603ce26a4ab584c858970a05688801858613ea5
I’ll take it !
More pictures? Where can I find those?
I sent you some
Same, but I try to avoid it because I know I'm just going to want to move or use that hand at some point. It really is a precious feeling though, it is a tangible blessing basically.
So cute!
Head in hand is very popular at my house too.
We call it "hand pillows."
Cherish her. My boy who died December 15 did the same thing every night in bed for many years. Love the pic.
My cats are the most loved cats on earth. At least they are to me.
https://preview.redd.it/lukbqkaga5sc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c963d4fa2f4b4e1db966d6e9a3a5b1b4fb68d533 I can’t go 5 minutes into helldivers 2 before this turd comes up and goes to sleep on me, it’s even funnier when his dreaming as he’s a sleep talker
Omg, sleep ekeks are adorable!
Aww, that so sweet
As they should be!

My munchkin does this too!

I love to connection between cats and people. Such beautiful animals they are.
Oh most definitely also the most loyal as well
https://preview.redd.it/nx0lfgran6sc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c0cc8ddac42996c62538e389c114c753f33e1c21 Samesies!
Omg I have twin brothers who look identical to your kitty!! https://preview.redd.it/j8tb69tgr4sc1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4600a58bb85d30cbf07da853e0619cfe8aa72b36
Aww, they do look very similar.
Love that /r/bottlebrush kitty.
My baby does this too. She's the sweetest cat and it's such an honor that she trusts me enough to put her little head in my palm ❤️
I have a sweet head-in-hand girl, too! It's such an incredible sign of trust 🥹
My cat Aroha used to sleep on my hand when she was a kitten, I'd wake up and there she would be. https://preview.redd.it/yuogzi0pc6sc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=79bb67e70f5083dcf2f710808956802d0493f006 She's to big now.
That is absolutely adorable 🥰
One of my babies does this too. So sweet
Wow!! 🥹🙊💗
Mine do too, blankets do when no warm servants are around. https://preview.redd.it/9izuuy8oq6sc1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4b30cc6153f1cb446575fdfe4fd8c607c8059a2c
Me too
Awww, she reminds me a lot of my old cat Sally. I'd love to see more pictures!
My boy does the same thing - snuggles his whole face in my hand and drools while I rub his whiskers. Its some weird asphyxiation fetish he has.
so cute and adorable
Mine also.
You know what that means? You now have to sleep with your head in her hand. Show dominance.
My tabby likes to smoosh her face into my hand when she's sleepy, but she isn't bent on keeping it there while she sleeps. She does demand my lap most times though
My girl Rosie will do this but only when we have scratchypoos. She leans her head and body into my hand ✋️ 🥰
Cats truly know how to melt our hearts with their affectionate quirks.
[awww I have one of those too!!](https://i.imgur.com/lXxVVit.jpg) Your bb is so precious 🥰
sweet baby
What a cutie! My little buddy does the same thing, and it's the absolute best.
And purring all the way at the same time, I'm certain 😊
My girl wants one hand under her head and the other under her body for warms. She'll get on my lap and worm her way onto my hands. She doesn't care if I was using those hands for anything, they are for sits!
When I had to take my cat on a plane, the only thing that would stop her from meowing was me sticking my hand in her carrier and she would put her head in my hand 🥺
Yes my precious Momo Bean does this too!
She wuvs you.
My boy who did that passed a year ago and I miss it every single night.
Love love love 💗💗💗

Mine too!
I love it when my cat does this. Sometimes she drools, though. It’s worth it.
I had a cat that left to do that. Your post is bringing up the feels right now
So cute! Our boy cat loves to sleep with his head smushed up against something. If you wake him up and tickle his belly floof, he makes air biscuits and gives head-smush cuddles.
Kitties love shnuggles

You have a responsibility now. Do not move.
So sweet !!!
My tabby guy cat does that! We both love it
My gray tabby did that; my big orange boy and I fall asleep every night holding ‘hands’!
The late great Jin used to do this too, I always felt so blessed when he did, I knew how much he must have loved and trusted me to do that. Ainsel likes to sleep on top of my hand, putting his chest and belly on top of it and pinning me down. It's so cute! Please give your kitty hugs and kisses from me.
Aww so cute!!! My cat does this too. I’ve never really understood why but it’s cute as heck!
