It’s not so much the licking my hand that I mind, but sometimes the one cat will lick the other cat, and I can’t get down with that. Lick my hand or lick the other cat but for the love of Pete don’t do both, you know? Like I don’t have enough of a dirt phobia as it is.
This similarly informative government publication made me kind of worried, but I wouldn’t categorize his licking as excessive. Fresh water every day and a bowl of Iams should make most cats pretty content, yes? [It’s not Nutro, but I don’t eat steak everyday, either.] I guess I’ll have to live with the licking, particularly if it is a sign of affection. I just try to steer him away from licking my hands [shudder].
