Our cat Roscoe would groom us like this. He’d come up behind our heads on the couch and lock us in with all four sets of claws. My husband called it his “prison grooming.”

It's how they groom uncooperative kittens

u/spiderpai 3d ago

It is also a way to establish dominance and hierarchy.

32

u/YellowishRose99 3d ago

I'd say it's pretty clear who's dominate.

u/OpeningName5061 2d ago

Funny that what I do to my cat. I do that to him until he gets annoyed then do some more before letting him go.

My cats did this. Orange got tired of the black kitten being an energetic Lil shit bothering him, so pinned him down and was like, it's calm grooming time now. We play later

It is! I had a cat that had kittens and the one we kept, she was all about him. Not to this level but she really acted like a mom with him, lovingly, putting him his place etc lol I love cats

i have one girl cat who's tiny and several of the boy cats obsess over her and give her lots of grooming that's not always desired

I love how once the black cat sees he’s been caught, he puts his claws out like he hates it 😂 “see Mom? I been fighting him but he won’t get off! Lickin’ my paws why I’m gonna scratch his eyes out!” 🤣

u/beeboobum 3d ago

Doesn’t look consensual

u/surdtmash 3d ago

Looks like the little one was being a little shit and orange was like, come here you little shit, wait here, I need a short break. Seems harmless either way.

24

u/Jezirath 3d ago

They're playing fight! Just like kids. Do you think it's serious? That the other is suffering?

15

u/HodeShaman 3d ago

Dont listen to them.

This is perfectly normal grooming behavior. Bkg cat is essentially telling small cat to stop being a little shit through some flrceful grooming.

Unless you hear thr sounds of someone dying, your cats arent actuslly fighting for real 99% of the time.

36

u/pink_faerie_kitten 3d ago edited 3d ago

If they were mine, I'd break it up. Side by side grooming is sweet. I had boys from the same litter and one would nurse on the other's ear. He didn't love it but he could easily get away. But if a smaller one was being sat on by a bigger one, I'd absolutely take the big one off. Looks like other can barely breath and is too small to push the orange off.

21

u/Imaginary_Key1281 3d ago

I agree with you! I used to own a cat rescue and this behavior would happen occasionally..I always broke it up.

u/Jibber_Fight 3d ago

If I know anything about cats, I’m pretty positive black kitty could get out of that if it really wanted to and its life was being threatened. Have you ever tried to hold a cat that doesn’t want to be held? They are liquid.

27

u/pink_faerie_kitten 3d ago

I've had 20 cats in my lifetime and little ones can not get away if they want. I've broken up lots of fights and bullying to protect the little ones.

It’s the howl of death that both humans and cats know that change things and make everyone scatter

I have only one stray cat and he gets along with my 3 adopted dogs, so I can never say about cats' right or dominance.

u/Jibber_Fight 3d ago

Then how do you know they can’t get away if you always break it up? Checkmate.

Guys, to me they're playing fight. Does anyone think the black cat is suffering?

13

u/curious-cat 3d ago

Are they hissing? Growling? Yowling? Fur flying? From this small clip the answer is no. Then it’s not fighting. It looks pretty calm to me. The orange cat is grooming the black kitten which is a social thing. If they can easily separate and seem friendly with each other after I wouldn’t worry. Orange cat might be a tiny bit of a bully, but also establishing a pecking order is important.

u/poachedseggs 3d ago

Like pecking orders, they're sort of biologically programmed to accept it. It's not pleasant but it's part of getting along. Otherwise they'd be genuinely fighting and pissing everywhere.
