Pulling burrs out of Kitty's tail.

One of my jobs in life is to pull burrs out of Kitty's tail. When she's been out hunting, or whatever the heck she does when she is not napping at my house, she picks up burrs in her tail.
When she demands a purr fest, I spend part of the time removing burrs from her tail. Occasionally, she dares to bat me with her paw or pretend to bite me. It is then that I consider Cat Recipes.
Overall, I think she understands that I am a part of her grooming routine. But my patience has its limits. Have you ever eaten cat?
I am showing her this post.

Not that I know of. But I have threatened to cook them when they have sat in my pans

I'm not sure but I may have once at a Chinese restaurant... it was supposed to be chicken but didn't taste like it. I was with a Chinese fellow and he ordered in Chinese...

That is terrible. I would never eat a cat. I was supposed to give the cats treats yesterday to celebrate Labor Day, but I forgot to give them the treats. I gave them the treats today. Doodlebug says hi. He is sitting on the desk beside me.

Cats can be aggressive at times. I've never eaten one. I did have some Orange Chicken with rice this weekend though. Better than cat. Have a good day.

I haven't eaten cat, and plan never to do so. If your patience evaporates, you can always dress Kitty up in her footie pajamas and send her down to Atascadero CA by Greyhound bus. She'd be more than welcome to room with me. As I have often been heard saying "There's always room for one more!"
The putting her paw over your hand or other appendages it is a sign that you are her person, and she loves you. I have had my cats give me love bites and also swatting my hand and arm with their paws (Yes, claws out). I live in town and don't let the cats out, we're on a heavily traveled road...there wouldn't be much cat left. They're happy with the situation, they have comfortable places to curl up and sleep. They sleep as close to me as they possibly can, when I am working on teddy bears. They also sleep with me at night....Petey has a tendency to pass a LOT of gas. He can clear my apartment in less than ten seconds with one of his farts. He can look so innocent, then blam!!!
Just comfort yourself in the fact that with her hunting there are fewer mice that can find their way into your home. Remember too, that if you have your patience so does she. Also, remember that she is smaller and has less patience than you. Give her some breaks between burrs so she can relax.

No never eaten cat and never would. Kitty understand you are just helping her out,
