A Confession

I have a confession to make. I talk a lot about what a fierce mancat in training I am, but what I don't talk about is how much I love to cuddle. I even like to be held like a baby. Everyone says to me, "But Tuck, you were feral, how could you be such a lap cat?" I guess I'm just smart. When the humans trapped me and my brothers and sisters to take us to the V-E-T, I noticed that it was warm inside, there was plenty of food and that the humans wanted to pet us. My brothers and sisters hated it, but I thought it was kinda nice. So there you have it, despite all the running, jumping and playing I do, and all my tough talk, I'm really a mush. I hope I haven't ruined my reputation around the CB now...

    Tuck, even grown ManCats like to snuggle and cuddle. You should see Crikey try to put his 20 lb. self on our Mama's lap! By the way, your gray furs are soooo beautiful:)

    I don't think that's any flaw. The Woman said her best mancats were all big cuddlers.

    Hi Tuck! Thanks for coming by and introducing yourself to us. Don't worry about your reputation, its safe. Stryder is a big mancat but he is also the most loving snuggler ever! Scotchy is a feral kitty too and she comes around several times a day just to get cuddles, she even drools when she purrs she so happy! You just keep being yourself and everyone will love you.

    Tuck, there's nothing wrong with a mancat who enjoys cuddles. The one who came before us was a street tom who adopted the woman and he loved to cuddle.

    You're a smart young kitty who knows what he wants and goes for it.

    Aw, Tuck...we think the fact that you lived on the outside makes you appreciate the inside that much more...it's okay to cuddle too...both Wally and me love to cuddle and we still are tough mancats!!!

    Cuddles are very manly, especially if you are snuggling with a pretty lady.

    That is a very beautiful confession, Tuck, and we also think that cuddles are very mancatly! In fact, #1 says that her experience to date as been, the fiercer the Mancat, the fiercer the cuddling!

    That's a lovely photo of you, by the way!

    All our cats are "cuddle kittens" :) - both the mancats are - and also the so-called "wild tortie" (ha ha!).

    Real mancats love cuddling!

    Nothing wrong with snuggling Tuck. I snuggle with my mum all the time, and Eric makes biscuits on our dad.

    You are what the lady calls a "love bug".

    No shame in that! I'm a he-man, power-cat and I can be a love bug sometimes (although I don't think I'm as nice and cuddly as you are).

    Hi, Fin told us about you and we wanted to say hello! My little sisfur Chilli is about six months and I am becoming 1 year in April. We love your fur colour - you (like Siena) would merge with our grey floor. Tee hee...
    It was nice meeting youu and we are sure we'll come back.
    Purrs, Siena & Chilli

    Hi Tuck,

    We've been having a real problem leving comments on your bloggie - so we're hoping the word verification works today. Mom said it's a nightmare!

    Cuddles are good - you can still be a tuff mancat and enjoy cuddles.

    You know Tuck, some of us are born lapcats and others aren't. I am the lapcat in our family, but my brother Max hates being cuddled. I say he doesn't know what he's missing!

    Cuddling with the Mom and Dads for us Mancats is very acceptable. You match your computer!
