Why Do Cats Knead?
4. Showing Affection
While some cats can be quite aloof, others like to show their owners a lot of affection. Cats will also often have a favorite person and look for attention from them whenever possible. Many cats like nothing better than being sat on your lap, and they just love to show that they think the world of you too.
