My cats absolutely do this. And the tail raises slightly each steppy.

Omg I love when my cat wags his tail πŸ₯°

My cat flicks her tail straight up and down to say β€œhey dumbass, I need butt scritches.” And she always does it when she’s greeting me at the front door.

My cats need me to tell them good morning with cuddles, or they get upset. I video call with them when I'm on holiday, and they rub their faces on the phone.
Can't beat that sort of affection, they brighten my days.

My cats race me to the bed when I ask them "wanna go cuddle". Cats are smart, they just don't flaunt it.

Mine sometimes blocks me from coming to bed until I give her pre-bed cuddles. I gotta pay that cuddle tax before I get to bed for bedtime cuddles. She's got me hooked.

You didn't finish. When they get right up next to you, they turn around and walk away.

Mine mews more and headbutts me. She is super vocal though.

The real highlight of my day is when I meow at my cat and she meows back.

Mine walks past me cause shes a sassy bitch. Love her just the same.
