kind of a weirdly hostile and presumptuous headline lol i read the whole thing and it's like, "don't rub the base of the tail, don't rub their tummy, don't do another commonly known thing to avoid." and it goes on to say body language will demonstrate if they are happy. ...yeah thanks. then i'm not stroking my cat completely wrong, appreciate the clickbait-designed judgement tho.
