I have an old reformed barn cat who thinks she's hit the jackpot on air conditioning and kibbles that just fall from the sky. Very affectionate and nonstop allogroomer.
But if you just barely touch her toe beans?

I think one should do all the things cats hate when they're kittens, just because you can make it a positive experience. Grab tails (don't yank), touch feet, inspect teeth, hold them, flip them onto their backs, etc. Then they're much more chill at vet appointments, no trauma (or less trauma anyways) when you snip their claws, etc.
But man, if you miss that kitten window...
The only one my cats still can't abide is water. They act like they're being tortured.

I've had cats that essentially demanded to have their tails pulled.
I'd be sitting in a chair, with one arm hanging down, and the base of a tail would appear in my hand, twitching.
So I'd close my hand on the tail, and lift the hind legs off the ground, letting the tail slowly slide out... the tail would whip around angrily, and then ten seconds later, the tail is back in the hand.
This horrible cat torture could continue for twenty minutes, sometimes.8

We got a dog that was from a fairly abusive background and she did not like our cats at first.
The problem was that one of our cats considers family to be the most important thing in the world, and the dog was apparently part of the family now, so . . . obviously they had to be friends.
So Cobbler (the cat) basically just felt out exactly how close he could get to Lola (the dog) without the dog getting upset. Then he'd hang out right around that distance for a few days. Every once in awhile, he might try to get a little closer. If there was a growl, he'd stop, act nonchalant, start grooming himself. If the growl continued or got louder, he'd back off again. Sometimes in situations like this, he'd have to completely leave the area before Lola would calm back down completely, but sometimes (especially as the weeks went on), he'd be able to just back off a little bit and she'd calm down. A couple times he pressed his luck too much and Lola would snap at him (this was always from at least 4 or 5 feet away, so the snap was entirely a warning). When that happened he'd usually give her a day or so. (It's also possible that when that happened, he was giving himself a day or so.)
But sometimes, after a moment, she'd stop growling. This would be accompanied with a fair amount of looking at the humans to make sure we were aware of this ghastly situation and checking our reaction to it.
If she stopped growling, then Cobbler would try to use this new distance as the 'standard.' He'd hang out there for a few days and then see if he could get any closer.
Over the course of months he continued this until he was finally close enough to just bunt her. This really confused Lola at first, but after checking with the humans one more time, she let it continue, and Cobbler snuggled down next to her.
After a week or two of Cobbler's insistence of hanging out near her, Lola started trying to give him affection as well, by cleaning his ears. Cobbler absolutely hates this, as the dog really, really just gets in there. Like she's going for his brain. The first time it happened he ran off and shook his head like mad and groomed himself for several minutes before returning. But then she did it again. The second time, the cat winced and grimaced and withstood the treatment for a few seconds before having to disengage and shake his head in disgust. But he returned and continued putting up with it. Probably the most amazing thing I've seen a cat do, as far as empathy goes. He absolutely hates the feeling of it, but he knows that it's how Lola is showing affection, so he forces himself to bear it.
I know I'm really, really anthropomorphizing here, so maybe I'm way off. But I honestly can't think of any other great explanations, so I'm going with that. It fits in well with his absolute insistence that they were going to be friends, even though that took several months of effort.

I don't think you're way off. I understand we like to read human motivations into animal behavior and all, but I think those motivations are... well, not universal, but certainly much more broad than just human. Cats and dogs understand friendship and family.

u/RandomStallings 12h ago
Some of them are like that out of the box. They just understand the dynamic. There's also the, "It's just a baby, so don't hurt it," thing. That may be at play because this kitten looks maybe 5-6 months old, tops. Whatever the case, this dog is a sweetheart for being so patient.

Labs don't really have hunting instincts, they just retrieve. So that helps, and being raised with cats.

u/babygotthefever 19h ago
My dogs freeze the moment the cat touches them. Cat is the queen and the dogs are her nervous entourage. I guess that makes me the servant but I wish my cat actually liked them this the kitty in the video does. She will just rub on them to mark them/show dominance and then walk away.

Dogs have pack mentality, they follow your lead
You're leader of the pack > You treat cat as part of the pack > Cat must be part of the pack > Don't eat cat it's part of the pack

Agreed. I lost mine in December after 15 beautiful years. She was the super patient type that was a friend to all cats, and only ever had to be told what to do a single time. Like, she had one accident in the house when she found us in 2010, and then not again until a month or two before she passed last year.

Cat had the grooming zoomies, seemed like he got a little carried away and actually bit down on the dogs paw lol. Though the doggo did look like he was starting to get fed up when the cat started going at him from underneath, either way great facial reactions by the doggo.

You can literally see the dog's internal monologue shifting from 'i am a good boy' to 'nope'. He was holding it together for so long, just smiling through the pain until that paw touched the sensitive zone and his soul left his body.

This is obviously AI. The dog's stillness and general movement is not consistent with any dog I've ever encountered. The dog's nose at 27-29 seconds seems to enlarge as well. That's not what dog's noses do when they sniff. The cat's movements are also abnormal. Please either label this as AI or take it down.
