The second reason for cat massage, as noted by zoologists, can be an absolutely primitive need for food. This feature in cats is congenital - even during breastfeeding massage is used by kittens as a means of stimulating the mother's mammary glands.

In addition to other reasons, scientists believe that special glands in the cushions of the cat's paws leave special markers on the person or his personal things, with the help of which the animal claims about its rights to humans.
