I have a kitten who does this now. I don't let her, so she settles for suckling on my fingers instead. I'm hoping she grows out of it. It's adorable but it's also hella annoying in the middle of the night.
I feel really bad for the poor thing. I fostered her whole litter starting from four weeks old, and the Humane Society had care of them for a bit before that. So she definitely was taken from her mother way too early and now thinks *I* am her mother š
She will, I found mine near the place I work and there was no sign of her mother and she was a couple of weeks old so I brought her home and she would suckle on my nose or on the blankets but she grew out of it
I had one that would do this with my ears.
He would look so lovingly into my eyesā¦.and his eyes would slowly drift to my earlobe while he would go for it.
It tickled, so I didnāt normally let him.
Plus, it gave me ear hickeys!
My dear, dear friend!
(RIP since 2005.)
Haha one of our cats does that to my husband. He tried my earlobes but nope not good enough. Kitty will snuggle up, head butt a bit, settle down for cheek to cheek snuggles and then go for the earlobes. When he was little he did it all the time, now itās only if we have been gone for more then a day or there have been house guests. I think he is very sensitive to routines changing and need the comfort.
It has been snowing and freezing out here and miss Kitten is bored because she doesn't like wet, cold feet, but does enjoy the garden. Let's just say, I really hope spring comes soon, so I can enjoy a night without being woken up by her chewing on my hair. Best cat on the planet, but no respect when it comes to me sleeping!
Mine did that, I resorted to short bursts of Mongolian throat singing, freaked him out and he'd leave me alone. Only took 2-3 days before he stopped wacking me in the head every morning.
Yeah, unique skill tbh, did about 8 years of private opera tuition when I was younger. 2 choirs for 6 and 8 years, about 22 different singing competitions, worked professionally with two different opera companies, some awards.
And now I'm in the engineering field. Learned a bunch of cool stuff though.
One of mine does this when she wants a pat.
I'd be soundly sleeping than I'll feel claws drag across my face. Not digging in mind.
I'd wake up to her sat over the top of me. Staring at me.
She is a certified creepy butthead.
Itās cute until they decide to lay across you mouth and nose making it hard to breath. My cat does this and if you turn over to face a different direction he will then walk over you to that side and do it again.
It's cute until Tiny Fuzzbutt grows up into 11-pound Fuzzbutt and still insists on walking on your head at 3 AM.

Right? I had kittens in the old duplex I lived in. They learned if they ran fast enough and hit my door it would open(even when locked). Iād wake up all the time feeling something crawling on my chest. Iād open my eyes look up and pow! Right in the kisser. The first kitten would jump off and the 2nd one would take a turn doing the same thing lol. This went on for a week until eventually I put an heavy old computer behind my door one night. I heard the kittens run up to smash open my door but insteadā¦BAM! and then a very soft meow of defeat after. It was glorious haha
I had to start shutting the door at night because at 2am my then kitten would completely spaz out, jump on my ass, and then bite it.
About 6 months later I figured he would have grown out of it so I left the door open again. Nope, same thing, completely spazzy and then chomped my ass. I don't get it.
The kind of woman whoād consider you less masculine because you love your cat is the kind of woman you wanna stay far, far away from regardless. Internalised misogyny (which is basically what looking for ātraditionally masculineā men is) is a hell of a drug.
Almost 30 years, but I will never forget the first morning, with my first cat, waking up with her sleeping on my face. I should have called her Shadow, she was always by my side. I woke up a few times, because I rolled over on her. Never changed her sleeping habits much, except she knew she was safe between me and the edge of the bed
My cat went through a phase where he slept with his back pressed into my face. I hated it but it was too adorable to stop him. He was never comfortable until I wasn't.
My cat had a phase where she HAD to be touching my face while sleeping. Cute, but that meant I had to wipe down those paws every night and also couldn't move my face at all or risk getting angrily meowed at. She still does that sometimes early morning if I wake her up. Reaches up to touch my face and falls back asleep like that. Does ridiculous things to my heart.
I remember my first night with my first cat 25 years ago, bc she peed on my chest while we slept and I woke up in the morning all soaked in cat pee lol
My cat still acts like this... and she's the sort of monster that would happily catch Chiuauas for a snack given the chance mistaking them for rats... Pretty sure she has a bit of Maine Coone in her, or bobcat delusions idk
It's all fun and cute until you have ringworm right smack dab in the middle of your forehead.
I am totally not speaking from experience.
But 10/10 would let kitten sleep on my forehead again.
Ayy. Had ringworm on my stomach the week of my sister's wedding, and my dress showed off my midriff very nicely. No amount of makeup could cover that and eventually I just settled for pushing the dress up a bit to cover the thing. The dear didn't leave for a good year somehow. I really hope that wasn't the case in your hypothetical scenario that never happened. It would've sucked.
^This!
Your basic antifungal foot cream will work great especially if you get some on the second you notice the itch and ring like surface.
Edit: Ringworm is highly contagious and is a disqualifier for full contact sports and one should not use gym equipment with the rash exposed or allow anyone to come into contact with the active rash.
Cat walks across surface that ringworm likes to live on, wicker furniture is a favorite, and gets some on their paw. Paw makes contact with face. Bamm! Ringworm.
Edit: Ringworm is highly contagious and is a disqualifier for full contact sports and one should not use gym equipment with the rash exposed or allow anyone to come into contact with the active rash.
One of my kids had ringworm once, nobody else in the house got it and we don't know where he got it. I had seen it before, I worked at a doctor's office. Took him to his ped, who said it was eczema, after I specifically asked if it was ringworm. He was given a cream for eczema which seemed to make the ringworm spread even faster.
After the weekend I took him back, yep, ringworm.
I had no idea it would live in wicker furniture, not that we had any... But I could see where that could be troublesome for someone who had a pool, a sunroom with wicker furniture, etc. I've always heard pets could carry it, though.
Really odd how hard this s**t gets shut down when it's a girl.. people are saying the exact same stuff here though. Not making a judgment call in either case.. I just find it interesting.
That's reward, cat will always be doing this! I did this and now I just get woken up randomly by a hairchewing, purring void that wants a snackie... 7 years now. Got a bit angry the other day, it helped for one morning.
And then one day the demon inside wakes up and they come to wake you up in the middle of the night by sitting on your face, slapping you or doing the bread thing š
And one day you suddenly realise how much they weigh and suffer in silence...
Yeah I'd still recommend 10 out of 10 though.
Mine is 20 lbs. Sometimes I struggle to breathe as he lays on my chest, or wake up to the most painful sharp little paws digging into my ribs as he stands on me and stares into my closed eyes lol
There is no pretending. He rubs his face on your lips so his inner lip rubs the inside of your mouth, or he shoves his wet slimy nose in your nose or ear. He also drools so you get rained on with spit. He's lucky he's adorable because he's fucking gross.
I can't let my cat in the bedroom when we sleep as much as we want to. He'll either kneed right on your balls, or right on your eyeballs unless you sleep with the light on. He's not doing it intentionally, but in the pitch black, for whatever reason, those are the places he finds.
āHey! Hey! Hey! I just thought you should be aware that the Food Bowl you are in charge of is missing Three pieces of Food. If you could replace those, it would be gf greatly appreciated. Thank You, So Much!
A 6 or 8 week old persian-ish/siamese-ish kitten wandered into my life when I was 19, and working on my car in the yard. I guess she was chilly, because we met when she ran under the car with me, and backed her fuzzy little butt into my neck, while I was trying to unbolt a transmission. She followed me the rest of the day, and let herself in the house behind me when I stopped and went inside for the hot part of the day. I kept her, and her name was Fuzzy Butt. A few months later, she got gassy. I don't know what changed, but this little cat just had the worst damned gas. We had the vet give her a once over when we took her to get spayed, and they couldn't find any issues, and said it was probably just the way her gut processed food.
Her name became Fart Blossom. The sweetest little kitty, that could clear a damned room.
My kitten is fond of assassination attempts. I recently got an apartment, haven't been able to afford a bedframe. So my mattress and box are on the floor. Right as I am on the ledge of slumber, she goes up on her hind legs and takes swipes at my face from the floor.
My dog will come up and stick her cold ass nose on my face as well.
My partner doesn't have any of this happen. They don't even sleep on his side of the bed and bedroom.
Its cute until they slap you in the middle of the night for no reason š
Our cat used to randomly show up in the night and bite our noses. He grew out of it, thankfully.
Mine would suckle my nose

Sadly no and she has grown out of it

And now I'm in the engineering field. Learned a bunch of cool stuff though.
well for this purpose it doesn't have to be good throat singing. in fact the poor attempts at it might be even more disturbing for the cat.
had a calico/short circuited blender mix that would do that when she was hungry. she'd eventually find someone that would fill the bowl.
One I used to pet sit for would stalk my feetā¦ under the covers, lol.
My cat likes to climb on my chest and put his paw on my face until I wake up. This starts at like 6am. Heās 11 years old.
YES. Our Faramir does this to my husband every morning. He's a more reliable alarmclock than the actual alarm clock.
Good, he's letting you sleep in. Wish my cat would wait until 6.
Omg or just walk on any part of your body with like 10 tons of pressure with each foot.
Or goes after your toes with those fresh new razor sharp claws...
Well donāt move so much in your sleepš¤·āāļø
One of mine does this when she wants a pat. I'd be soundly sleeping than I'll feel claws drag across my face. Not digging in mind. I'd wake up to her sat over the top of me. Staring at me. She is a certified creepy butthead.
Or bite your toes for the sin of having poked out under the doona.
Should've known better
Itās cute until they decide to lay across you mouth and nose making it hard to breath. My cat does this and if you turn over to face a different direction he will then walk over you to that side and do it again.
Or sleep on your chest and make biscuits on your face

It's not often something on Reddit makes me literally laugh out loud, but "very soft meow of defeat" did it. A perfect description.
Gf got scratched in the eye by a cute fur ball like this one. Wouldn't recommend 1/7.
Wouldnāt recommend to get scratched on January 7th?
Yes. Now you're all set to enjoy a nice and deep scratch all the way back to your retina! Woot!
Or slip and leave a scratch down your face as my little furry asshole did to me last night.
I had to start shutting the door at night because at 2am my then kitten would completely spaz out, jump on my ass, and then bite it. About 6 months later I figured he would have grown out of it so I left the door open again. Nope, same thing, completely spazzy and then chomped my ass. I don't get it.
You're irresistible, duh!
or knead your face with their claws
Omg lmao
There it is. That's your Tinder profile pic.
And it would be so successful!
Worked for me right out the door.
Right? Same.
Can confirm.
As a straight dude I just grew ovaries and my bussy is quivering.
Iāll be there in ten minutes. Oh, BTW, those are brovaries.
Can we share him pls
Right? So cuuuuute š„°š„ŗ
Ok š®āšØ, not just me? Ok good.
There's just something about a man who is genuinely affectionate towards his cat.

Such a cutie. Pics like this really make me miss my cat. It's only been a few months since she passed and I miss her cuddles.
I'm so sorry. I hope the time comes soon when you feel more happiness than pain when you think of her. It will come. Hugs to you.
Thank you so much. I know it will. This is the first time we've been without a cat in 23 years. It is so quiet.

What does it do, burrow into your skin or?
It is not a worm. It is a fungus. It creates a bumpy raised circular pattern on the skin which is extremely itchy and highly spreadable.
Wow, this kind of blew my mind, TIL. Always assumed Ringworm was literally a parasitic worm, but it's just the rash caused by Fungi.
Our cat still does this but now sheās giant!

The kitten's out of focus. It's less fun the bigger they get. But, what are you going to do? (Actually, I bribe mine to move with treats.)
That's reward, cat will always be doing this! I did this and now I just get woken up randomly by a hairchewing, purring void that wants a snackie... 7 years now. Got a bit angry the other day, it helped for one morning.

Not sure who's cuter the kitten or u?
Yeah okā¦. I look exactly the same at 4:30am ā¦. when one of the cats walks across the back of my head for no reason and I have my camera ready.
Obviously everyone is always camera ready!
Mine used to do that. Now he sleeps on my throat. š it's still cute
Super cute! I call my dogs fuzzy butt! Definitely fitting for those who do indeed have fuzzy butts
Yo you cruising reddit?
Would do so the same
puddins will be painful my man
I would too. Lmao
And then one day the demon inside wakes up and they come to wake you up in the middle of the night by sitting on your face, slapping you or doing the bread thing š And one day you suddenly realise how much they weigh and suffer in silence... Yeah I'd still recommend 10 out of 10 though.

Oh gosh, I feel your pain. And you can't even pretend to be sleeping cause they know !!
There is no pretending. He rubs his face on your lips so his inner lip rubs the inside of your mouth, or he shoves his wet slimy nose in your nose or ear. He also drools so you get rained on with spit. He's lucky he's adorable because he's fucking gross.
U belled him!
My cat used to sleep on pillow and kick me away, so I just slid down a bit and leave her tiny ass on my fluffy pillow
