Trust me, he gets plenty of pets. He likes to be petted on his own terms though. Too much attention and he's off.

This is my damn dog. He'll come to me and beg for demand pets, but they for sure are on his damn terms. The second he's satisfied he gets up and struts away. No staying for cuddles, no hanging out next to me for a while.
(He follows an unfortunate pattern of men I've allowed in my life. #sad)

Eh, there probably is no one who's perfect for me. But that's ok! I'm perfect for me, and I'm delightful!

A herring.

I see you are a person of class *tips tophat*

A spider.
That was the answer to the riddle the Sphinx gave Harry Potter in the Deathy Hallows in case anyone cares.

Goblet of fire and that was not the riddle asked. You have two more guesses.

Oh right it was the tri wizard tournament wasn't it?
I should be ejected from the Harry Potter club

A toll fee I'd gladly pay.

“Oh, were you trying to get past?”

Wouldn't it be a shame if someone were to lie down right in the middle of the path? Like, right here? Like this?

this is so cute but now i'm genuinely concerned. is she in danger of being run over by cyclists who don't know she's there?

There is no risk of him getting run over. This is filmed right next to my house on the path leading to the back of my house. The only traffic is me.

Pet the cat, you heartless human!

Hooray! Another cat subreddit for my collection! Although, as enticing as it looks I wouldn't try petting his belly. He has some really sharp nails which he isn't afraid to use.
its a trap! a r/cattrap !

Cats rolling on their back usually don't want their belly petted. They are probably displaying affection though.
Their bellies are the most vulnerable part of their body, so rolling on their back and displaying it is a sign they feel comfortable around you, and like you. You can often pet cats that do this, as long as it isn't on their belly. Petting their belly is an abuse of the trust they are showing, and a way to be caught in a sharp teeth and claw trap and eviscerated.
Edit: as people have pointed out, not all cats are the same, and many cats like belly rubs, particularly if they got a lot as kittens. The most consistent rule about cats I think is that there are always cats that are exceptions to whatever general rule about them. That said, I think this is true of most cats. If you meet a cat you have never met before, and it rolls over to show you it's belly, I would avoid petting it's belly, but offer it your hand to sniff, and, if it still seems friendly, try to pet it on the cheeks/neck/head, rather than petting it's belly. I would only pet the belly of a cat if its owner had told me it likes it, because they are the exception rather than the rule, and many that don't like it are pretty violent about showing their dislike of it.
not the case for all cats, all our cats are trained from being kittens to be okay with belly rubs, it is very much possible but there are too many types of cat personalities to make any one rule on that
True.
It is usually a safe bet that a cat you don't know won't be pleased if you touch its belly, and that if it is rolling on its back in front of you it likes you, though.
My cats LOVE being petted on their bellies. I believe my boyfriend more or less trained them to be okay with it when they were kittens, but they will just walk up to me or him and flop over on their backs and give you sad looks until you pat their bellies.
True! In that case, check out r/murdermittens 😂 I’m all about the cat subreddits!
He would definitely fit on there especially when he's playing. He likes to chase strings but every time he catches one he just pins it to the floor and doesn't let go and that's the end of playtime.
