Murphy was found in a storm drain. We guess he was just under a year old when we adopted him. This video is from two years ago when he was around 18. He's still alive today and showing no signs of slowing down.
Some cats love it. A couple of ours start licking/chewing air or give us li’l nibbles if they get whacked around the base of the tail. My parents’ cat demands to be bonked around with an empty soda bottle on a daily basis. They’re weird little gremblings, cats.
One of our cats didn't like it at first. She was always the skittish one. We started gently patting her and she grew to like it, even the harder smacks.
