Why do cats rub against us? 🐈‍⬛

This episode’s question comes from Gabe, who lives in Des Moines, Iowa. Gabe wanted to know why cats rub against us. We will explore what a cat's scent glands are doing, why cats rub against each other, and what all of that might tell us about why your cat does the same thing to you.

Have a question of your own? We'd love for you to send it to us.
