PJ (our ancient old gray man - used to be Phantom Jet when he was younger) would never ever claw me. He requires copious pets from his nose to between his ears, both cheeks, and under the chin. The rest of the body? He can take it or leave it. Every cat in the house (5) has a different preference in petting patterns, the girls demanding that both hand be used simultaneously. I just made a major breakthrough with the wild ones who have chosen to live in my garage (6 to 9 depending on weather) - the one who has been around longest (we call him Whiskers) has finally allowed me to pet him while he is eating (yes, I am dumb enough to feed them every day) and two others are close to allowing me to touch them. Amazing for wild ones. No matter how friendly we all get, however, they cannot move into the house. It is way too small for more animals and I am already on the verge of being called "crazy catlady... uh, man" Who knows the secrets of the cat world? Cat Man Do...
I envy you, all those fine feline friends. I'm such a newcomer to cat love, I'm sure I could easily go nuts -- we've already promised our son, when he moves back in with us this summer, can adopt another kitten, since Tuxie has become Dad's Cat. But even with 24 hr antihistamines, I still have this ferocious allergy, so I have to be realistic: 2 is probably all I can handle, and even that might be pushing it. But I can't help myself; they're just the coolest critters.

Total agreement. I'd rather live with cats than any other animal (including most humans).

ROFL!!! I played this one for Tuxie; she started going wild, running back and forth, looking for the kitteh!!

ETA: I picked her up, to show it to her -- she started hissing and making that yodelling noise.

Yea, that is what I was thinking
Polydactyls are in high demand.
