Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's simple overstimulation and all cats do it. You can't give them a shitload of stimuli or they'll start losing their mind - biting, scratching, flailing. Then they'll usually move away to chill out so they don't get stimulated further. Imagine being ticklish and getting tickled by some a-hole for way longer than it's funny. Yours was just trusting enough to sit in your lap after. The head pressing is normal too, cats feel safer when they are held tightly / pushing on something. Google "squish that cat" - it's a 7 minute video on how to handle a cat. My cat does the head push when he had a bad day too.
Well, she got RRRRRrrr and biting (but not running away) in overstimuly mode after the "fix". Look, she was inbred and clearly autistic, different but way smarter than other cats (was a farm and she's ca. our 30. cat; i do know how they behave usually). My guess is more that she got trusty enough to me/us during that training to feel safe enough to not panic.
