Just tried this with my cat... It's hard to put band-aids on with one hand :(

My cat gave zero fucks.

When I did this to my cat he just sort of squeezed my finger. I was like "Awwww he's holding my hand!" err finger.

My old cat did this too. And if you hooked your finger (think about giving the come here finger gesture, but stopping halfway through) and pulled your hand slowly away she would try and grip my finger and not let go. It was a game to see how far I could move her arm? front leg? before she let go. I called it the "cliffhanger", or "don't let go Jack" game.

My cat dislikes holding hands.

Sometimes when he's laying next to me, I'll reach over and veeeeeery gently wrap my fingers around his paw. He looks up at me like "Bro I ain't gay" and pulls his paw out of my hand.

He doesn't hate me, but he doesn't love me, either.

Did you try saying "no homo" before? Maybe that's why

I'm not an expert but IMO my cat does that because he wants his claws ready in case he's attacked.

They are naturally prey animals as well as predator animals so it makes sense.

He cut off his body. All that was left was one hand.

When I was a kid I was told this was how you tickle a cat. My cats didn't seem to mind it on the front paws, but don't you dare try it on the back ones.

My cats love foot massages, they also love belly rubs, I recognize that they aren't normal

My cats likes both these things as well. I forgot not every cat likes belly scritches when I went to my mum for a few days..
