Can cats be stroked on their bellies or is it not worth the risk?

The stomach in cats is the most sensitive and vulnerable part of the body. It is said that cats bred by their mother do not like to be stroked on the belly without permission, because whenever the kittens behaved inappropriately, the mother scratched them just in that place. So cats are not allowed to stroke their own belly to everyone.

But if the animal itself exposes its belly to be stroked by the owner, it can be regarded as the highest degree of trust and an indicator of special affection. The cat knows for sure that this person will not hurt him.

If the pet closes its belly, you should not climb to him, otherwise he will release his claws.
