My cat likes to be forced to cuddle, meaning she’ll hang around and watch me until I go grab her and (gently) shove her down next to me on the couch.

She will stand next to me in bed while I tell her to lie down and I have to finally say it aggressively and pretend I’m mad for her to just relax.

She also likes to be picked up and forcibly (gently) chucked in front of the food bowl; otherwise she’ll just sit there and look at the food.

It’s the strangest thing. IDK what she went through before living with me but she can’t just do things a lot of the time.
