“SWEETIE, DO YOU NEED YOUR BELLY MOOSHED? YOU LOOK LIKE YOU NEED YOUR BELLY MOOSHED.”
That action is called “snurgling”. It helps stimulate milk production.
No it’s mooshed
Snurgling
My family has always called it “kneading” (like kneading dough), and yeah it does help the milk flow; this is why the kittens do it while they nurse, and it becomes a comforting action as they get older, so this is why cats will dig into soft spots (like a blanky, or our laps)
I have a ton of new followers so I just wanted to post this. There is a difference between an emotional support animal, therapy animal, and service dog. Please know the difference!
“Emotional Support Service K9s” don’t exist. “Emotional Service Dogs” aren’t a thing.
Psychiatric service dogs are a thing and it’s important to get terminology correct! When talking to other people, if you’re using the incorrect terminology, more and more people will hear you say you have a “emotional therapy service dog” and think that therapy dogs and service dogs are the same. THEY AREN’T.
This isn’t at anyone in particular. Just want to make sure that my followers are on the same page.
