I learned a new word yesterday (or more correctly a new expression) to describe something I have seen most days for several decades.
The word in question is Lordosis (or more correctly Lordosis behaviour)is describes the presentation response of female cats in oestrus. Also tickle a cat at the base of its tail and it raises its bottom or at least mine do
And that is Lordosis behaviour. 24 hours ago I didn't know that...
Sorry, I'll do a better post later!

"Sorry, I'll do a better post later!" Yes, please do!! :)
Is there not a similar word but with a very different meaning: "lordoverus"?
Waiting....
Can't say I've ever tickled a cat there. I usually just tweak its jaws and the nape of its neck. It seems to like that.
Well there you have it. I have a new post!
And here I thought Lordosis was Madonna's kid's name.
Haha Pouty Lips!
Er... confusing that. I read where the cats, when there backs are being tickled near the base, raise their behinds to be licked.
The male ones do that as well.
Well, whatever.
Hmmm to be licked or mounted.. not uch of a choice for us there Snoppy!
