Unlike most cats, though, Chief's behavior isn't a trap.

Cats lay of their back to defend themselves....it frees up all five of their weapons at once (four paws and their mouth).

That is one of the reasons that sometimes dogs and cats do not get along. A dog will see a cat show its belly and....well, you already know the rest.

I was gonna, and JACK wished it would die on the way home … I never ended up getting it, it was so hard to say goodbye I couldn’t again, I do have my moms cat she left, he’s been depressed, he’s warming up to me, the fucker always head butts me for pats LOL

That's cute, I love it when they do that

 

[Fredricka]

Don't bring the cats into it @Jack Meoff , theyre off limits

One of the strays (I call him Chief) will rub against my leg and often when I reach down to pet him he'll roll over to give me his belly. Unlike most cats, though, Chief's behavior isn't a trap. He actually likes belly rubs and if anything just licks my hand when I oblige him.

Like I said... a bunch of sweethearts they are.

Shit, you actually know ‘the trap’ LOL
the ones here are all like hey rub my belly that’s it yeah and they grab you ha ha ha

That's one possible reason.

They can also assume that pose when they're playing, or trying to charm someone into giving them attention, or it's simply a comfortable position in which to nap and they feel safe/secure enough to expose their vulnerable bits while they snooze.

I will never not skritch the belly floof if it's offered.

If it does turn out to be a trap just remember not to jerk your hand away; that's how people get injured. That can turn a harmless grab or mild puncturing into a legitimate wound and that's 100% the human's fault.

 

[Fredricka]

What did he do?

I'll tell you if you post a proper face pic

Yeah, I agree.

You gotta look at some other things to know what they are doing....

I worked part time as an animal care attendant at the local shelter for a while and found out that sometimes it is hard to read cats....

They're smarter and more complex than a lot of people give them credit for.

Generally speaking you have to simultaneously take in multiple indicators (tail, hackles, ear position, iris dilation, posture, etc.) to have a good idea of how a cat is feeling or going to react.

I think it makes cats more interesting in some ways but I still love the doggos too; not belittling them in any way.

I look DAM GOOD in red!
