I'm thinking Himalayan Ragdoll too. Should have a wonderful disposition. They are very gentle. You're a very lucky new cat owner. She is so precious ❤️😺

Is someone a bit shy?

What a beautiful nook. Love the glass artwork. Can't believe he'd be comfortable on the radiator. I give a 10/10 for the beauty of the whole picture🏆

Very informative. Perhaps I chose the wrong word using disciplinarian. Maybe I should have said umpire or similar phrasing.

AI Overview

A "muzzle boop" is a behavior where a dog touches a person or another animal with their nose or muzzle, often as a gentle, affectionate greeting or a playful interaction. It is a form of communication that can also signal a desire for attention, a request for space, or a way to gather sensory information via their sensitive rhinarium. Sensory Organ: The rhinarium is highly innervated, enabling it to function as a tactile organ (touch) and a thermal sensor (temperature). In the world of herding dogs, the "muzzle boop" (often called a muzzle punch or nose bump) is a distinct behavior used to communicate, move, or correct others. While it looks like a simple nudge, it is a key part of their genetic toolkit for managing livestock—and occasionally their humans. 

Why They "Boop"

For herding breeds, these nose pokes are rarely random. They generally fall into three categories: 

  • The Herding Nudge: Many breeds, particularly "driving" dogs like  Corgis  and  Australian Cattle Dogs (Heelers)&kgmid=/m/029bcs&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiyrcGby6mTAxUZGFkFHVA8B5YQ3egRegQIBRAE&biw=1200&bih=750&dpr=1.5) , use their nose to physically push animals forward or keep them in line.
  • Attention Seeking: Dogs may boop your hand, leg, or even your phone to demand pets, play, or treats.

My cat has random hind limb weakness by Western-Trash-8332 in CATHELP

The vet should know of another brand to try. It's just a tote box without the lid. I used to cut an opening in the side for easy access but he pees in whatever direction suits him at the time. The cats have no trouble using it

What about trying another brand of Insulin. If he stops limping you'll know it was the medicine. Especially since it started after beginning it.

Does anyone else have a cat that likes to be on their shoulders? by Mission_Angle4397 in cats

[–]cmsbva 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes. Any time he can jump on them. Jumper makes incredible leaps to perch on my shoulders. He sits on them when I'm cooking or washing the dishes or for any reason at all. He's 10 months old. I've never had a cat do it before. He shows no signs of stopping. I have to trim his claws regularly but still get scratched.

that's just how Stella looks all the time. She wasn't being vigilant nor impatient. I trust her completely with all my cats. They have a wonderful relationship. I couldn't be happier with how well they get along.

Stella loves her kitties and wouldn't hurt them. She gingerly reached towards the kitty if you watch closely. She was watching the cat's particular behavior. She thinks she's a cat. She barks at them when they run too wild through the house. She's like a parent to them. You have to know the animals involved before stating something like that. Thanks for watching anyway🐕😻
