Sage lets us know when she wants attention by climbing on the dresser and putting her 2 front paws on mine or Dave's chest if we go over to her. We pick her up and pat her, she loves it and purrs. Then she'll bite our arm or shoulder. She won't run away, I've heard of cats suddenly changing their mind and not wanting to be patted so they bite and run away. But she bites (not enough to break skin) but still purrs and sits there in my arms. She'll do it to both of us, and we know it means she's happy, but does anyone know why they do it exactly? I don't mind it, I'm not trying to train her to not do it. But I was just wondering.
PS -All the things online say it means the cat has had enough. But I know what that is, I've had cats do that to me before. This is different, Sage gets upset if we put her down after she "love" bites us. She wants to come back into our ams. Her tail never twitches, she's calm and docile while she does this. Hmmmm...
