Whether you’re a cat person or not (and we think everyone’s just a hug away from being a cat person), you’ve got to admit they’ve learned a lot. They sleep most of the day, bask in the sun, and do nothing. So in the spirit of learning from the best, here are seven ideas for wooing your partner with cats’ patented moves.
1. One leg is straight up in the air
Have you ever thought about rolling around on the floor to try to get your partner’s attention? Think of it like a sexy little dance. Ending the number with a leg up will guarantee you get the results you want.
2. The long stretch
Feigning a big stretch to touch your date at the cinema is old news. Now we are doing a big stretch just to show the goods. Bonus points if your butt is up.
3. Raise the stomach
It’s so cute when cats roll onto their backs, exposing their soft little bellies. So why not be cute when you expose your soft little belly?
4. The flop on your side
This one gives Cleopatra. It gives the Roman goddess who fed on grape skins. It’s a power move that says, “I don’t have to try anymore; come near me.”
5. The blow from nowhere
Grabbing out of nowhere is definitely a pro move, so you should save this one until you have some experience with other techniques. It basically works like this—you wait until your partner is under the covers about to fall asleep. Then you slowly, silently creep up on them until you’re within striking distance, and that’s where you go in for the kill. Or the seduction.
6. The naughty twitch
Granted, it can produce mixed results depending on your partner’s skin sensitivity. But if it works the way it works for cats, then forcing your partner to care for you and then violently biting them will only make them want to care for you.
7. Lie on top of them and purr
Possibly one of the simplest ways to express interest, try laying on top of them, making sure you’re comfortable—and don’t be shy about getting on your hands, spinning in circles, and bending back. ! Purring is optional but encouraged.
