Why is my cat trying to.. Um.. clean me?

[slackerinabox]

My cat has this new habit of jumping on my lap and licking my shirt... I don't quite get it - the shirts are clean and I don't think i smell bad.. though I shoudln't complain, this is the only pussy i've gotten in weeks..

sorry, that was too easy.

One of my cats licks my hand all the time, and my feet right after I get out of the shower (which tickles). The other just sheds, and sometimes drools on me.

"You need to shower and do your laundry" is what your cat is trying to tell you possibly?

 

[Sphexi]

Cats clean each other when they're happy, this is his/her way of telling you that they like you.

 

[mugs]

My old cat used to lick my hair.

 

[jhayx7]

Some cats that are taken from their mothers early take to the habit of licking more than normal. Does it lick itself to sleep sometimes?

 

[Bryophyte]

You smell like ocean whitefish and tuna. Or is it super supper?

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Take a shower you lazy bum.

One of my cats has always been a licker. It's kind of gross but there isn't anything wrong with the cat.

Your cat is, umm, trying to have relations with you.

My cat will clean my goatee. It wakes me up that way, and I have to go feed it.

Kitties licking you is just their way of telling you that you're 'family.' It's affectionate.

What do you mean there is no marraige between a man and a cat?

 

[KarenMarie]

I have a cat that will lick walls, windowsills and window panes.

Just cannot figure it out.
