Cuddle Up
Support a kitten like a newborn baby, holding his head and bottom with gentle hands, stroking his tummy with a single finger, or right-side up, cradling his belly and hindquarters, never squeezing or clutching. A grown cat can be held the same way, but may prefer a little more wiggle room to choose the ideal cuddling position. Your cat may nestle against you, or decide to sit regally on her own while you imitate a massage therapist, rubbing magic hands on her head, chest and sides.
