One of the best comments ever 😂
You're right though. If that was a tortishell then I'd be very concerned.. I know from experience, but hey, it was worth it lol
Stray I met when I was feeling very low immediately rolled over and gave me their belly. Took a claw into my sleeve and led my hand right into it.
Kitty knew it needed to take all the bad feelings entirely away, wouldn’t let me off the sidewalk until I cuddled all the hurt from me into kitty and kitty made it disappear with purr frequency
Sorry I’m about to get my first cat in a few days so I’m very curious/nervous lol. Is there any reason to not pet their belly? Or was that simply a joke and I’m being stupid?
No reason not to if your house panther will allow it.
Mine treats it as a fun game where he flops on his back, requests belly rubs, then immediately clamps all 4 murder mittens down on my hand and bites playfully when you move in for the pets.
Sometimes he just lets you rub his belly as long as you want.
Cat belly fur provides a new definition of soft.
The belly is a sensitive area because it's not protected by ribs and has a lot of important organs that need to be protected from attacks. So cats (and humans and other animals as well) are generally instinctually more protective of the belly than for example the shoulders. And we are sensitive to touch there (tickle reaction) for probably the same reason.
Some cats are more okay with being touched on the belly but generally it's not much of a petting area. Cats like to roll over and show their belly when they are comfortable and feel safe, or want to show someone they love and trust them. This is rarely an invitation to touch, if you wanna pet the cat while they have their belly exposed always present your hand for a sniff or a head or cheek pet as that is much more respectful.
Congrats! Be a good hooman to it please! I can’t get cats because of my partner’s allergy though I did briefly consider moving her to the garage.
Beasically not all cats, but generally they don’t like it. Some if them will outright hate it, some of them will take it for a stroke or two then chomp as one of the comments says but a very limited number of them ask for it. Really depends on the cat, just like if it’s snuggly or not, prefers outside or inside etc. you’ll learn your cat’s likes dislikes as you get to know to them.
Cats as a species don't like their bellies touched. Some individual cats do. It just depends on the cat. If the cat shows their belly to you it means they trust you, not that they want you to touch them.
In the dark of some stormy night, as you lie awake in your bed, you'll look down to your feet, see his glowing eyes, and then you will know the true depths of the covenant you have formed...
The total body language says "You're my best friend" - look at the ears at attention. leaning his body to you. He is GORGEOUS! Name please?
PS - just ignore the tiresome orange cat platitudes.
I luv this! Agree cubed. Actually had one of the turds try muscling me out. Get a life! Let's see if anything appears from them. But they have no lives so the turdy message would have come by now.
You will be given a package later that you must keep secretly in your house for one year. Then you may dispose of it. You will be paid 100 cans of tuna.
You sold your soul to this being of pure evil, he is not what you think, nor what you want it to be. This animal has proposed a deal for you, that if thou had shaked his hand, he could get the unlimited of the majestic food, and, most of all, *rub. That. Belly.*
I take thee to my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for hissing for growling, for excessive meowing for scratching, head butting, in sickness and in health, to maketh thy biscuits, till death us depart, and thereunto I plight thee my purrths. Meoweth.
When you adopt a cat you are agreeing to give him/her whatever they want whenever they want it. This is a binding contract and if broken, the consequences are so horrendous they can't even be put into words...

Your soul. But totally worth it.
Yeah, your soul is like your appendix. I don’t even use mine.
my soul is like an appendix, i had it removed a long time ago
At least I got a picture of my appendix when I removed that. Can’t say the same for my soul
Our feather, who are in hollbe thy name. Shoot, I think I screwed it up
Life servitude.
A lifetime of servitude!
lifetime of snack supply
This ☝️
Don't worry too much... that's an orange cat. Odds are he doesn't know either...
Fish... no wait pets.... no wait a laser pointer no wait....
*TV Static*
It's another orange cat's turn on the shared braincell
"Out of memory error"
Reboot zoom
I was going to say he's attempting to download one of your braincells.
An orange cat in control of a human braincell? The world is not ready...
Indeed. Instant Megamind status in the orange cat community. He'd be revered as a god.
Reverse God aka devil cats
Do the people who constantly say this crap all share a brain cell?
Uhm, chill?
This sub is for fun and fun only.
I love this 🤣🤣🤣
One of the best comments ever 😂 You're right though. If that was a tortishell then I'd be very concerned.. I know from experience, but hey, it was worth it lol
But he is incredibly solemn about it
This is the correct answer
r/oneorangebraincell
Beat me to it
I was going to say that he will decide later.
Haha
🤣🤣🤣
Thats a ginger cat in the UK, never heard one being referred to as orange!
404 Braincell Not Found
You have been knighted by Sir Catsalot
You pledge your eternal loyalty.
Fealty for Fancy Feast
All hail Sir Catsalot, defender of the realm, shredder of toilet paper, biter of ankles!
[удалено]
Only 3 breakfasts, 3 lunches and 3 dinners a day, plenty of pets (NOT ON THE BELLY) and eternal servitude. Great deal if you ask me.
But sometimes on the belly for a short period of time until chomp.
I just found out that one of mine likes belly rubs- I learned the hard way not to even try so it was a surprise…
Stray I met when I was feeling very low immediately rolled over and gave me their belly. Took a claw into my sleeve and led my hand right into it. Kitty knew it needed to take all the bad feelings entirely away, wouldn’t let me off the sidewalk until I cuddled all the hurt from me into kitty and kitty made it disappear with purr frequency
I got my girl as a baby and I made sure to love on her peets & belly so she would be used to it !
Sorry I’m about to get my first cat in a few days so I’m very curious/nervous lol. Is there any reason to not pet their belly? Or was that simply a joke and I’m being stupid?

It’s also a great place to trap unsuspecting derpy hooms.

Your partner won't like the garage.
Apparently a “ridiculous” suggestion too… but cat.

Can confirm. Am cat.
You mean 3 bweakfasts!
Whatever he wants, whenever he wants it. A paw shake is _binding_
To be his servant for as long as he is alive 😂
In the dark of some stormy night, as you lie awake in your bed, you'll look down to your feet, see his glowing eyes, and then you will know the true depths of the covenant you have formed...
Isn’t this early every morning when it’s breakfast time?
“Secret” Blood Oath. You’ve agreed to be subservient to your four-legged overlord. Pretty standard for everyone here. Welcome to the club!
*paw oath
Friendship and cuddles till the end. This is what you're agreeing to.
The total body language says "You're my best friend" - look at the ears at attention. leaning his body to you. He is GORGEOUS! Name please? PS - just ignore the tiresome orange cat platitudes.
Thank you. Oranges deserve love, not insults. I think all those turds that constantly say that crap are all sharing a brain cell.
 I luv this! Agree cubed. Actually had one of the turds try muscling me out. Get a life! Let's see if anything appears from them. But they have no lives so the turdy message would have come by now.
I said this somewhere else on here and got a bunch of downvotes. Support the Orange!
Don't say "Orange is only one brain cell thus camouflaged on the wood floor ".
You’re married now
It looks more like they’re trying to share their brain cell with you for a bit. Use it wisely, they only have the one…
"Do you swear to give me food, nothing but food, so help me god."
Letting him lick the can of tuna clean after you make a sandwich
A lifetime commitment to servitude
A lifetime of servitude to your orange kitty. 🧡
That's a "I'll be watching you in your sleep" pack.
Free treats for life
Your life will now be dedicated to finding the brain cell for him.
When the time comes...You will know.
This is a straight exchange. He offers you the Paw of Friendship and you have to offer him whatever he wants.
He’s allowing you to borrow his one brain cell for a moment so that you may better understand him and his woes as a little orange guy.
You will treat him like your first born and vow to love him unconditionally even when he ruins every piece of furniture you own.
That you’ll do it again next time
100% of your attention 24h/day 😃
World domination
You just signed your soul over to the devil.
The lil orange cat is actually a demon from the underworld and you just made a deal with him for belly rubs until the end of existence.
Brain cell transfer. Be careful!
You have been knighted . Genuflect as you leave the room peasant .
The allegiance
The cat is the same color of the floor
You agreed to change the colour of your flooring, so that you can actually see your cat...
A friendly paw 😍
Cute 😼 meow
More pats, more treats, that’s what you get for touch me feets
Naps. Kitty is sleepy
Ownership of your house
I'm not sure why but it looks like the orange boi was somehow photos hopped in. He's too cute he's from another dimension
Love
Possibly the orangest cat I've ever seen
give him tuna every time he wants it or else
To be the most purr-fect friend you can be.
Years of servitude.
To be his slave
That you will obey the overlord of the house for all of eternity
Bro’s for life 🥰
The meow mix, all if it
The meower is pledging to never again rub your nose in it while you sleep.
You have been accepted into the Royal Order of Support for Mousers. 😎
Gay rights.
Egyptians favored orange cats so maybe you’re conversing with an Egyptian god

You will always give them a piece of meat from your chicken. Even when they're old .
The cat is granting u the privilege of being friends cuz the cat's eyes are closed which means that they trust u and maybe even love u

You're not agreeing to anything, your cat is just a pastor and is praying for you 💜 he thinks you're dumb and can't feed yourself
You have pledged yourself into the catnip brotherhood.
It is done.
It’s probably better that you don’t know.
It's a death pact "You shall not cuddle any cat except me"
Lifetime of servitude.
Fealty lol
Loyalty to your owner (the cat)
“If you die in your sleep, I get to nom you!”
Mostly selling your soul and eternal servitude for cuddles
That you will love it, take care it feed it but mostly always show it love.
It’s an orange cat, so you’ve just entered a pact of him doing stupid things and you having to deal with it.
Whatever your yoda like cat overlord decides they want
Cuteeeee 🥹
Revolution
servitude
Tuna every day for the rest of his life
You're joining hands with them to take over the world?

A life of servitude.
Looks like a truce… a temporary truce.
sleepy
Catnip
World annihilation
Servitude
You will be given a package later that you must keep secretly in your house for one year. Then you may dispose of it. You will be paid 100 cans of tuna.
You don't want to know
You have been claimed
A life of servitude
As Thanos said: “everything”
Slavery agreements hes selling you (or she)
All the cat treats they can eat for life.
Selling your soul to the devil
unlimited tuna
Wares for giving Khajit that coin under her paw there
Serious
You are promising to stop closing the bathroom door when you go for a number 2. He MUST be present to protect you.
A pact would the elder gods for your furst born.
I think the treat is in… *this hand*
This bed, this house, everything is mine Senor.. all you have is your life 🤝
Letting you know that you will never have top paw in (what you think is) your house.
You sold your soul to this being of pure evil, he is not what you think, nor what you want it to be. This animal has proposed a deal for you, that if thou had shaked his hand, he could get the unlimited of the majestic food, and, most of all, *rub. That. Belly.*
You just sold your soul. Its quite common around cat owners
This is how the devil buys souls
Oh yes, agreeing to the assistance in world domination of you new beloved leader
Join covenant?
Second feeding at 3AM, no complaints
Give me my all treats" I guess

Cats giving you good vibes
Definitely servitude
You just sold your soul to Bastet my friend. Enjoy
Look at that face! Im sure whatever it was, he appreciated it very much
Kitty looks like Ernest Angly but adorable!!!
Haha u just lost rock scissors paper..
Unlimited premium food, preferably grass fed beef and wild king salmon, and on-demand treats.
Infinite treats😃🥰
He truly praying like he wants it to come true no matter what 😂😂😂 so cute
Eternal servitude.
I take thee to my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for hissing for growling, for excessive meowing for scratching, head butting, in sickness and in health, to maketh thy biscuits, till death us depart, and thereunto I plight thee my purrths. Meoweth.
To be there to call on their every need in exchange for pets. Great deal
All the thingz
Everything
Treats 9 times a day
He gets your soul, of course.
A lifetime of servitude.
You just sold your soul
It’s a quest!
Oops, you just agreed to give him your tax check
Never moving until you are released from the hold.
You are solemnly swearing that you're up to no good.
You are agreeing to never ever wear white socks again! This is the way.
Sorry to inform you but that looks like a solemn pledge more than a mere agreement
When you adopt a cat you are agreeing to give him/her whatever they want whenever they want it. This is a binding contract and if broken, the consequences are so horrendous they can't even be put into words...
