You cat is "kneading" your head. This is a primitive cat behavior that comes from when they are very little. Kittens will knead their mothers belly to stimulate milk production. Your cat isn't trying to get milk from you, it's just a behavior that is comforting to them. :)

Awwww, she loves you... Your cat is so happy that she is marking you with her scent. Whenever you see a cat kneading or rubbing up against something they are leaving their scent a type of marking their territory but not exactly. This particular type of kneading should not be mistaken for a cat sharpening her/his claws or the marking of territory that is usually done by males to let other males of the species know that a certain area is his and to stay out. This territory marking is done usually through urination. Your cat is marking you with her love. The drooling is a physiological response to how happy she is to be with you. How lucky you are to have something in your life that loves you so much!



Namaste!

It's normal. She's "kneading." What that means is she's extending and retracting her claws. Sortof like you would do to a lump of bread dough. All cats do this, it means she's happy. My cat does it all the time. Drooling is normal too. I was holding my male cat, Oreo, while watching Dr. G: Medical Examiner last night, and he was kneeding into my stomach like your cat does into your hair, and I had a huge drool spot on my shirt... haha.
It's normal. Don't worry, she's not possessed or anything. ;)

hey

maybe your cat thinks your hair is string or something?

im sorry if this offends your hair :|
but its the only thing i can think of.

when she starts to do it, push her away so gradually she starts to realise what she's doing is like naughty or something.

hope i helped
xx
