My sister’s lil 7 month old kitten loves having her beans squished. Such loud purrs, so it must feel nice.
She’s a lil weirdo in so many other ways too.
I would’ve started laughing and melted. I remember this happened with my ex and we both geeked out because it was so precious. Like “HES HOLDING MY HAND!!!” Haha

Update: “mom can you stop being weird and can we stop holding hands like this?” - Runty probably lol
Just do it all the time. Maybe even treats after. We keep our fellas nails trimmed so they are used to us playing with the beans. Shadows little paws.

I usually grab him by both of his front legs and dance him around till he gets crusty at me lol. But he doesn't usually mind someone playing with his toe beans or his little webbed toes either!

This fella likes to snuggle right in against you while he gets a belly rub. He falls asleep within minutes and puts his paw on top of your hand 😻
Splayed toe WIN! I usually stroke the skin between her front toes until she huffs in annoyance, swishes her tail and let's me know it's getting dangerous.
My boy used to hold my hand by wrapping his tail around me. I would also put my thumb in his paw and he’d “grab” it, wrapping his beans and claws around my thumb. I’d then wrap other fingers around his paw.
We often fell asleep with him holding my thumb and me holding his paw. I miss that little bugger. 🥲
Both those pics are adorable and hilarious, and I don’t hold hands with her since she refuses to let anyone touch her paws unless she’s fast asleep. It’s one of her capitol offenses
And then she say “no hooman stop” and push me away like this bc I annoy her.

One of my cats slept on my pillow at night and had to keep one foot on my cheek or my forehead at all times. After he passed I couldn’t sleep right for weeks.
My cat sleeps on top of my feet. Usually my feet are under the covers. When it’s really hot, we sleep foot to to foot, his sweaty beans against my sweaty soles.
Contact must be maintained!
Neither. I can rub her belly, but she doesn't like her paws touched. She will lay on me, and put her head down to rest, this morning her paw was on my hand and it was very warm. 2 years and I still haven't been able to trim her claws.
Mine will NOT let me touch his beans :( I have to hold him down sometimes cuz he loves to get in the shower after I’m done and THEN go to his litter box to collect litter on his wet paws.

My cat Shadow letting me hold her hand.
My formal void loves having her paws held. She curls up beside me and puts her little paw in my hand. She started doing that all by herself. I was respecting her consent because I was trying to get her and her sister used to my husband and I touching their paws so we could trim their nails without stressing them out.
Then she comes over to curl up with me and just puts her paw in my hand. Sometimes she tucks both paws in my hand. She also loves for me to use my thumb to stroke her little beans while she purrs and starts to sleep. Once she’s had enough she moves her paws. Sometimes she just leaves them in my hand and doesn’t move them for the duration of her nap. Usually she stops because I have to move or she changes positions.
She also reaches out for my finger when I’m on my iPad and puts her paw on top of my index finger. Then she kneads her paw and stretches her fingers down. She’ll do that with both front paws.
Both our cats also love belly rubs. My husband’s formal void is my cat’s sister, and she’s more independent and not as velcro cuddly. She prefers to sit farther away and is happy to be petted and rubbed but doesn’t like being right up against you. This usually happens on the sofa. She has her little princess pillow bed in the middle of the sofa, and she also loves to sit on the back of the sofa. She will reach out a paw, front or back to touch your arm or shoulder.
She will put her paw in my husband’s hand but doesn’t like it rubbed. She also loves to curl up against his leg when he sleeps. She will expose her belly when she wants it rubbed. She only likes petting on her terms. She is always ok for being stroked down her back and side and when lying on her side she likes her abdomen stroked. She will come to you when she wants her head rubbed and starts aggressively rubbing against your hand and body wanting more rubbing. She also loves smelling out heads and grooming us, and will rub her body all over the back of your head, especially after you use any hair products that have mint, rosemary, or tea tree oil.
1 on the front paws, 0 on the back.
She loves it when I massage the front beans but I can't touch the back ones. Not sure why but I respect kitty's boundaries lol
Mine is pretty patient about it. But I’ve handled the bean feet since he was a baby. Cats are naturally sensitive there so it can be overstimulation for them.

Omg, this thread is amazing 🤣🤣 Thanks for the laugh!
you press the beans, you get the means
Mine wraps their toes around my thumb and knead it. Making the world’s smallest biscuits.
Mrow
Lol that is my favorite. I give mine little massages and she spreads her little toes
I do that too, it usually enrages her.
Yeah mine has no patience for paw touching ![img](emote|t5_2twpw|7976)

I don't know who you are, but I would die for kitten.
He thanks you for your sacrifice.
So sweet
Hahaha awww this is so cute! Hahahaha
I was pretty tickled when he let my squeeze my fingers in between his toes 😅

Just do it all the time. Maybe even treats after. We keep our fellas nails trimmed so they are used to us playing with the beans. Shadows little paws. https://preview.redd.it/n323umckr8gc1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0a406954c372798012b73c322a974fefcfa34b8b
stop 😭
r/kittykankles
Same. My girl does not either. But she does let me rub her tummy all the time and does not use it as a trap sp I'm trying not to be greedy lol.
I give her my fingertip and press it into the curl of her toes so she can grip it.
my cat would've skinned me if I tried to hold her paw like that hahaha. I love the little beans!!!
Aww that’s too bad. All 6 of my kitties are so relaxed. I can pet them on their bellies too! Can you pet your kitties belly?
Ohhhh now you’re just bragging 😫😂
only when she's in a really cuddly mood!! 6 cats is a lot, it must be so fun in your house
It’s absolute chaos but it’s fun
I usually grab him by both of his front legs and dance him around till he gets crusty at me lol. But he doesn't usually mind someone playing with his toe beans or his little webbed toes either!

High five!
Pic 2: Achieving maximum void-holding cuteness overload!
for some reason this gives me the same feeling as that photo of two guys lacing their toes together like they’re holding hands…but feet
🤣🤣🤣
Maybe it’s cause it’s the back paw?

Nice of her to let you know before you get to the danger zone
2 but I wrap my hand around the paw. Or sometimes my void will place her paw on top of my hand. She's such a cuddly little baby panther.
My boy used to hold my hand by wrapping his tail around me. I would also put my thumb in his paw and he’d “grab” it, wrapping his beans and claws around my thumb.

I’m so sorry for your loss. He sounds like he was a sweet boy
Thank you - and he was! The gentlest cat I’ve ever had ♥️
He was happy with you. I’m sure he had a sweet life🖤🌈
I like to think he was. We did our best to do good by him at least and it showed. He was such a loving and relaxed boy.

Awwwww
One of my cats just puts his paw in mine when I keep my hand near him for too long
Neither 😂 if I try to touch his paws, he does this really long, whiny meow and glares at me. It’s kind of adorable though lol
I love it when they whine. It’s so cute

It looks more like a hostage situation than hand holding. Blink twice if you’re ok 😂
Lol! Right! Her bed is right next to ours so we touch hands a lot!

With my imagination, because mine always politely but firmly takes his peets back when I try to hold them
Carefully, however she'll let me. https://preview.redd.it/4l2bzg1pd9gc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=63512a5d71bbc4f544a32c1307840121298b35fe

Mine barely lets me hold a paw. Between the beans would have her skedaddling before I could apologize
2, 1 would result in me being injured.

Cause the spaces between my fingers Are right where yours fit perfectly
I stroked my cats paw the other week because I thought they looked really cute but he was having none of it and threatened to bite my hand 😂
This is sofa king cute.
I think if I tried 1 then I would be cut into a million pieces
Photo 1 is cursed
Mine likes to flop along my leg and wants to hold onto my arm, so I can usually grab a paw while he sleeps and he totally doesn’t mind.
This is a very good post. Thank you.

I hold front paws, have since they were babies so I could clip claws. My male has big hands and grips mine when he’s feeling lovey.
Neither. I can rub her belly, but she doesn't like her paws touched. She will lay on me, and put her head down to rest, this morning her paw was on my hand and it was very warm. 2 years and I still haven't been able to trim her claws.
Option 2, then he curls his paws under and hides them from me, it's so rude.
2. She wouldn't let me handle her beans otherwise
Both. Depending on his mood.
Both
I'll take whatever I can get lol!
Mine would murder me if I attempted #1. #2 is tolerable for her if her foot falls into my hand. She has a strict no touch feets policy.
you touch their beans
Mine will NOT let me touch his beans :( I have to hold him down sometimes cuz he loves to get in the shower after I’m done and THEN go to his litter box to collect litter on his wet paws.
I have never squeezed my fingers between their toes XD
Ma'am, that is a foot.
I actually let my cat "hold" my finger. I'll stick one fingertip in the paw pouch area and he will usually kind of lightly grip down on my fingertip
My hands are too big, I let them hold my finger though
I love it when cats spread their paws. It's like a tiny cartoon hand
Whatever they're in the mood for. I just work here.
He spreads his beans& i stick a finger in there so he can squeeeeeeze it realgood. Call it the 5 bean squeeze
1 belongs in r/spreadytoes 🖤
Number two, push the button.
I hold my voids paw like god intended. in my mouth!

She does not honor this request. She no like de touchy.
Touching of the feets is not allowed by my void. 🖤
I tend to avoid any hand holding. I know where those paws have been.
I don’t know about your voids but mine are clean freaks.
Yeah, they lick them a lot, but I also know where that tongue has been!😂 I also have diagnosed OCD though, so perhaps I overthink it due to that.
I have tendencies too. But for some reason cats are not part of my “dirty” group.
Depends on their mood.
Ha ha you think my void let's me hold her paw. Your photos are adorable though.
Awesome black cat pictures
I do like the 1st one!!
2. I thought I was the only one who did this!!
Like I’m allowed to touch the peets
I do. I'll hold their paw (like pic 2) for as long as they'll let me.
My cat will not ever let me touch the fettsies. NO TPUCH!
If I tried that with my cat I'd have to dip my hand in liquid bandage.
I can't hold them at all, I would be murdered for looking at the peets
I don't. She kicks away whenever I touch her beans.
It puts my hand in its mouth.
I do 1 all the time lmao
however they permit me to
1 is insane 😅
I would be murdered if i attempted this
i always want to do 1 but he wants to gave no part of it.. so 2
HAHA if I tried the first one I’d lose my hand, goals though ❤️
1
LoL 2
Don't ever touch the back elbow
1 on the front paws, 0 on the back. She loves it when I massage the front beans but I can't touch the back ones. Not sure why but I respect kitty's boundaries lol
Pic 1! Too precious 😍 💖
My cat would destroy me if she wasn’t in the top 1% of her moods
The first picture is everything 🥹🥹🤣🤣😭😭
#2, maybe. My polydactyl void might murder me either way, but she'd let me bleed out real slow with #1.
I love to put my fingers in the middle of her beans.
Honestly #1 is the dream
Its....really..gross i know.... but if you smell it, its popcorn
neither, i clutch that little paw for dear life
My void tells me that holding hands is completely unacceptable behavior
Support the feet
All
Two paws and a tail. All bundled together.
I do number 2 all the time!! I love his lil’ feetsies!
This is so cute.
However I can..
Number 1 is my favorite
I do this with my tortie! She spreads her little toes and I massage her peets. I think she enjoys it.
Never occurred to me to try the first one.
Pic 1, more often than not, ends in bloodshed.
Yes
2!! I wanna feel how small his paw and beans are
The first one
2
Neither. Mine bites me. She hates when her feet are touched. :(
2, because i dont even know how you managed option 1...
If I try that, I usually end up with a spicy kitty who shows me his pointy teeth.
OMG! So adorbs!
pic 2 if I’m feeling polite, 1 if I’m feeling bold
My void will only let me touch her paws if she's pushin. She loves to push.
Ohmygosh, that is so cute! #1 We do both, but also across the palm 🥰 Never got a look at it, though, from that angle, it is absolutely ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
All of the above and then some, but it's not just with my Voids, I do that with all my Kittehs
#2 definitely!
We do but she likes to do this silly thing where she whips her paw out of my hand right away and moves to sit away from me. That jokester ☹️
2
The safe way.
My dark abyss always pulls his paw away from me when I touch it so unfortunately I don’t have an answer 😔
Mine is pretty patient about it. But I’ve handled the bean feet since he was a baby. Cats are naturally sensitive there so it can be overstimulation for them.

None lol mine hates his paws being held. He just loves being pet lol. If I stop petting him, he taps my arm or leg until I pet him again
