Why does my cat lick me?!?!

I made this way too hard for myself. I couldn't think of anything to write about this week. And then today came and I was like, “AHHHH! IT’S WEDNESDAY.” -___- But I finally came up with something… The 

reason behind why your cat licks you.

Obviously, we all follow the Vlogbrothers. And if we’ve all watched John’s latest video on answering the frequently searched things that came up in the Google autofill we hear that one of the questions was ‘Why does my cat lick me?’ I have a cat of my own, and occasionally he does like me. But now he is more accustomed to biting me so if there is ever a Wednesday where I don’t post, you can blame it on my vampire cat.

But anyways, I found this amazing so seeing as I couldn’t think of anything else to educate you lot about, I resorted to going a bit more in depth to the questions why does my cat lick me? Sure, John’s answer was pretty hilarious, “Cats believe that all other organisms, are cats.”, but I’d like to go more into depth about that and see if there are any other answers, or a bigger explanation to the whole your cat thinks that 

you’re a cat thing.

According to this one site, cats lick you, nudge you (So on and so forth) because it’s their way of showing affection to you. They believe that when a cat headbutts your hand, it’s the human equivalent of bowing. Course. XD This site also says that cats accept humans as the leader of the pack, which is interesting... Coz if you go back to the time of the Egyptians, didn’t humans basically worship cats? 

Yes...

Another reason is the whole mother cat grooming her kittens with her tongue. So either cats just need to lick people or they believe that we are the cat’s kittens.

SO WHAT EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE HAVE YOU GAINED BY READING THIS BLOG?!

You have most probably learnt that John’s answer is most the most reasonable and interesting answer. CATS BELIEVE THAT ALL OTHER ORGANISMS, ARE CATS. Now you can live your life with that one piece of knowledge. NOW GO! LIVE A SUCCESSFUL LIFE WHERE YOU KNOW WHY CATS LICK YOU!

... I honestly don’t know what I’ve written myself. But there is what is hopefully one piece of education. If you want to be properly educated, go read Emily’s post on the history of ukuleles or Chuck’s on 3D glasses.

 I CAN'T WAIT FOR HARRY POTTER 7!! I'm planning on my friends and I going to the midnight screening, dressing up and pulling a full on wizard duel... Coz that would be so cool. 


(A/N I think we should bring in that punishment rule; not only for late posts but for bad posts)
