the cycle ☺️
@exocomics yep. But in return they're adorable
@exocomics I think the licking (grooming others) it’s also some kind of showing dominance, still cute in a way 🤣
@exocomics When you get a bite with all paws scratching like that, that's pretty much an "I hate you, get away from me and leave me alone," from a cat. It's not "play" any longer.

@exocomics Every time I go in for the tummy I hear Admiral Ackbar warning me

He’s always right. 😼

@exocomics when I first got my old cat, he has no concept that love bites are meant to be gentle, so his love is always harder to deal with than when he's being an intentional little shit. I never knew if I should bite back and get a mouthful of fur or something.

Turned out immediately walk off and ignore him worked really well

@exocomics A four-panel comic featuring a mischievous cat and a human.

  • In the first panel, the cat bites down on the human's arm with a fierce expression and wide eyes, saying, "I BITE." The background is orange.

  • In the second panel, the cat looks apologetic, with its tongue sticking out slightly while still holding the arm, and says, "I SORRY." The background is light blue.

  • In the third panel, the cat bites again, showing the more aggressive face than the first panel, and says, "I BITE AGAIN." The background is red.

  • In the final panel, the cat starts kicking and scratching the arm with its hind legs while still holding it in its mouth, with the text "[KICKING INTERLUDE]" written over the action. The background is yellow.

  • The comic is by Li Chen from Exocomics.com, indicated in the bottom corners.

    @exocomics You've met my last three cats!
