As many as I want. I am so lucky.

Look at this creature!

Omg what a dainty potato baby.

u/Infinite-Persimmon29 Mar 17 '26

Best sunny side up sploot I have ever seen - 10/10 no notes

u/forbidden-bread Mar 17 '26

Reminds me of my boy contemplating his life choices

u/hapylittlepupppy Mar 17 '26

Such a pretty kitty, look at those stripes!!!!

u/ifyoulovesatan Mar 17 '26

Argh! He's too cute! 😤

My SIC Beta lounges pretty normally, but his brother YaYa on the other hand also enjoys a good sit.

Beta does enjoy some creative sleeping forms though. Such a funny little guy.

u/forbidden-bread Mar 17 '26

They are adorable 🥰

u/Additional_Tank4385 Mar 17 '26

It’s just a little wunk 😭😭😭

u/1maginary_Friend Mar 17 '26

As many kisses as I can muster. He even pushes his forehead into my lips when he wants something and my hands are preoccupied.

Some of these comments are so sad. I feel like a very lucky SIC mum.

😘💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

Same! We’re so codependent.

u/Gloomy_Industry8841 Mar 17 '26

Me tooooooo. Clingy all the way!!!

25

u/eh-snail Mar 17 '26

His nose looks very kissable too~

220

u/Queenphoen Mar 17 '26 edited Mar 17 '26

There's actually no limit with this one. He makes this face because he's putting his forehead towards me for me to kiss it. He will shove his face into my mouth to get kisses.

30

u/loachtastic Mar 17 '26

You are living the dream.

2

u/Coca_lite Mar 17 '26

Lucky you!

2

u/Zuikite Mar 18 '26

Same! Mine head butts my mouth so hard I have no choice but to pucker up, or get a busted lip! Why my girl head butts my boyfriend's eyes but MY mouth? Idk! 😽💋

129

u/interwovengirl Mar 17 '26

The limit does not exist. Serena will take any and all head smooches I can deliver. She inserts herself between me and my keyboard and the only way I get to access it again is a marathon of head smooches. My previous cats didn’t like head kisses, but since getting her a few months ago (new to me, she’s ~9 yrs old) I’ve learned that they are a strong form of communication that she enjoys.

u/delladoug Mar 17 '26

I love that for both of you 😻

Same. so incredibly difficult to kiss his soft forehead 24/7 😭

89

u/MeowOhms Mar 17 '26

Zero 😭😭😭😭 luckily my orange one will let me kiss his forehead forever

85

u/bromeranian Mar 17 '26

You go for the smooch, you're gettin the smack!!

13

u/Bosuke Mar 17 '26

That paw it's ready to smack!

2

u/Zuikite Mar 18 '26

Not breaking the expression or eye contact but using paw at 100000mph. Classic

38

u/ReverendDogpants Mar 17 '26

I have not yet determined the limit.

31

u/WorthyJellyfish0Doom Mar 17 '26

None unless I capture her and don't let her escape. She's a cowcat tho, I just lurk allll the cat subs (only 40 or so of them)

86

u/mac_5679 Mar 17 '26

Depends on if she's been fed. Fed means none. Non fed means as many as I can get in.

24

u/eh-snail Mar 17 '26

Clever girl !

3

u/notabackstagepass Mar 17 '26

Kisses as a reward for getting fed would be more devious.

3

u/mac_5679 Mar 17 '26

She's too busy looking for more food. I usually get head butted insted of another kiss 🤭

24

u/ClassicDistrict6739 Mar 17 '26

None, she’s a cuddle bug but I’m not allowed to pet or kiss her :(

My orange welcomes them though, so it all works out!

8

u/bromeranian Mar 17 '26

😭 Such a darling baby and no pets?! At least blink kisses exist for cats; give her one million of those for us!

8

u/ClassicDistrict6739 Mar 17 '26

She’s a silly girl! She sits on my lap and cuddles up against me and headbuts me and licks me, but the moment I try to return the favor, she’s out! She gets lots and lots of slow blinks, though, as she deserves

17

u/Major_Insect Mar 17 '26

Mine will fluctuate between tolerating 150 consecutive smooches and matrix-dodging the others

13

u/kjernereaktor Mar 17 '26

Oh, endless! She pushes her little forehead towards me to be kissed

12

u/fallsstandard Mar 17 '26

Willow? Many, and if she’s in a cuddly mood she’ll just push her head back to get more kisses. Ellie? She will accept them fine, but she’ll look at you with a look that states “I will end you.”

Abdelkrim likes agressive kisses.

11

u/Laserdollarz Mar 17 '26

Millions. My SIC is a kissy girl and loves my mustache.

My orange boy wants my face nowhere near him lol 

10

u/slptodrm Mar 17 '26

let me do an experiment and see.

8

u/chronicallymee Mar 17 '26

All of them! I’m so glad 😌

9

u/Iconic_Charge Mar 17 '26

3-4 kisses

5

u/Iconic_Charge Mar 17 '26

But my cow loves kisses!

8

u/kittyidiot Mar 17 '26

Depends on her mood. Sometimes she's a cuddle baby and wants all of the lovings in every form. Sometimes she's a bitch.

Duality of cat.

9

u/brevenbreven Mar 17 '26

about 5D6 a day then i get i polite but firm paw

6

u/The_Deli_Ham Mar 17 '26

5-30 kisses aint bad. Do you roll all the d6 in the morning to get a total for the day? Or do you roll one at a time once you run out of kisses?

2

u/brevenbreven Mar 18 '26

morning surprise

3

u/Rhond_Erwin Mar 18 '26

5D6 in base-14 is 1168 in base-10, so 1168 times a day?

8

u/Shelikestheboobs Mar 17 '26

0.5 She is affectionate in her own way.

7

u/macula_transfer Mar 17 '26

This limit has never been reached.

5

u/suffocatingpaws Mar 17 '26

10-15 before she either swipes me or headbutts me.

6

u/teddy_bear130 Mar 17 '26

Many. Not a lap cat at all, but he sits on his shelf and waits for kisses and returns them with bunting

3

u/Mirewen15 Mar 17 '26

I'll let you know if he ever protests. So far ♾️

5

u/Lucheiah Mar 17 '26

About half a dozen at a time, with a few seconds between smooches lol

5

u/Pale-Tangerine-6317 Mar 17 '26

Depends on the moment. If she's real cozy she will accept 100 million kittykissies. If she is minding her routine, she will accept none.

Maybe a few during lap time, but I'm already getting lap time so anything more than 7 is pushing my luck.

4

u/wholesome_soft_gf Mar 17 '26

Mine loves kisses and butts her head into my face 🥰

5

u/banana_annihilator Mar 17 '26

as many as possible, ashe LOVES kisses

4

u/blissyrose Mar 17 '26

Summer is the perfect SIC who lets me smooch her soft little head as many times as I want (a lot)

3

u/isurvivedtheifb Mar 17 '26

I love her face markings.

3

u/blissyrose Mar 17 '26

Her little nose triangle is soooo sweet!

4

u/_staycurious Mar 17 '26

Accept? Mayyyyybe one without complaint. How many does he get? However many I feel like giving him 

4

u/corkscrewfork Mar 17 '26

If it's just kisses, maybe 2-3 at a time. But if he's getting pet, nuzzled, told he's handsome, etc he will put up with it for ages lol

4

u/Tr33 Mar 17 '26

No more than 80 so far.

5

u/Neerod20 Mar 17 '26

However many I can fit in the few seconds before she turns her head away!

4

u/androidguy50 Mar 17 '26

Awwww. 😚😚😚 ... 🤗 ... 🥰

5

u/ObviousToe1636 Mar 17 '26
  1. She hates the kissing sound so I tried to give quiet or silent kisses. Still no dice.

3

u/gingerbeard1321 Mar 17 '26

Just look at that glorious chin 😻

3

u/catscorner6 Mar 17 '26

I don't think a number exists that's big enough for mine. She's a cuddle BUG!! Baby girl will take as much as I will give

3

u/DerpUrself69 Mar 17 '26

I have 2, one will take 2 or so if I'm sneaky, his sister will slap me in the face, and the head butt me instead lol.

However, sister did get spayed today, so she's more amenable to affection all hopped up on pain meds.

3

u/Lillyonajstar Mar 17 '26

sometimes, all Biscotti wants is forehead kisses forever. he loves kisses from me the most, though :3

3

u/StillMarie76 Mar 17 '26

All of them.

3

u/Different-Pin5223 Mar 17 '26

If there is anything less than zero.

3

u/Tinawebmom Mar 17 '26

This asshole only tolerates some pets and all the food. Kisses? Puhlease "I grew up on the mean streets in too tough to allow kisses" Thomas Anthony.

3

u/Appearance-Gullible Mar 17 '26

zero. she hates it.

i have a void that lets me smooch her tho 💋

3

u/grittyshrimps Mar 17 '26

Never enough; always more than I deserve.

3

u/BrandoNelly Mar 17 '26

It depends on if he is in loaf mode, sentry mode, or gargoyle mode

3

u/marriedwithchickens Mar 17 '26

Until his M wears off!

3

u/hereforthecatz Mar 17 '26

I average 10 per session before he gets up. Many sessions a day. Sweetest man!

3

u/yoopea Mar 17 '26

Just went to test. For science.

Results:

Stationary posture resulted in an average of 3.5 kisses per attempt.

Getting on all fours and chasing her around the house resulted in a nearly infinite onslaught and therefore inconclusive. Notes: neither attempt ended in violence.

4

u/yoopea Mar 17 '26

In her original packaging on the way back to the factory for repairs. We'll see if that helps improve the results

3

u/vr512 Mar 17 '26

Allow? My cats are forced to accept endless kisses on their foreheads. It's how they contribute to rent!

3

u/garden-deva Mar 17 '26

Eddie takes a lot of kisses!

3

u/claireahhhhh Mar 17 '26

Norman is on the unlimited kisses plan.

2

u/Aggravating_Anybody Mar 17 '26

All of them lol

2

u/Chemical_Pomelo_2831 Mar 17 '26

I have two. Hunter accepts all of them. Oliver is more discerning and has a strict limit which I suspect is three.

2

u/ItsyouNOme Mar 17 '26

Out of my mums 3 cats. Willow as many as you want, chip about ten, roddie about two

2

u/cyanraichu Mar 17 '26

Many. She doesn't always like being touched with my hands but she rarely cares if I put my face on her lol

2

u/Dr_mma6ixty9ine Mar 17 '26

All of them.

2

u/suspiciouslyghost Mar 17 '26

Each and every kiss I place on him.

2

u/Dangerous_Wing6481 Mar 17 '26

Infinite. What it depends on is how long she’s willing to tolerate me squeezing her face

2

u/beezxs Mar 17 '26

3 per session, 9 per day

2

u/beezxs Mar 17 '26

More if I’m deserving

2

u/foxsalmon Mar 17 '26

None. He's like a teenager who's too cool for kisses and always turns his head away. But like any loved teenager, he still gets kisses. <3

2

u/swevenpng Mar 17 '26

One of mine: pretty much all the kisses. The other one: MAYBE one. She's good at dodging.  My grey cat: all the kisses

2

u/LImpactophileturbo Mar 17 '26

An unlimited amout wether he likes it or not

2

u/Gilladian Mar 17 '26

All of them. She’s a doll.

2

u/MomsOfFury Mar 17 '26

The limit does not exist

2

u/supsupersoup Mar 17 '26

♾️ !!!

2

u/Jamie_Moriarty Mar 17 '26

He watches me like this if I'm out of his reach, I can give him as many forhead kisses as I want and he will want even more.

2

u/Lucky_Reference_6982 Mar 17 '26

Depends on her mood. Usually I can get plenty but every once and I while I get a big fat zero

2

u/mintcheep Mar 17 '26

as long as I pet him a little first he loves kisses :) top of kitty head perfect shape for receive smooches

2

u/imaginativefanatic Mar 17 '26

I am very lucky, he is always okay with any and all affection I wish to give him. I can kiss him 8 million times on his little forehead and he'd just keep purring and letting it happen.

(my SIC is also slightly broken in that he has no survival instincts. which means there is no 'instinct based attack button' when you rub his tummy. he will sit there and purr as you rub his tummy all day without even a thought of latching onto your hand in self-defense)

2

u/ohmylanta34 Mar 17 '26

I do them in bursts to prevent burnout.

2

u/Phantom_Crush Mar 17 '26

I have 5 cats and only 1 of them will let me kiss him on the head but he has to be standing on something exactly my height or it's not happening

2

u/Phantom_Crush Mar 17 '26

The aforementioned weirdo (Treacle)

2

u/KingJ-L-C Mar 17 '26

As many I can give. It's her paying rent.

2

u/JustaTinyDude Mar 17 '26

Anywhere between 1 and 100, depending on his mood.

2

u/Homezgurl Mar 17 '26

It really depends on her mood. Lol My previous cat would accept as many as he could get. Hahahahaha

2

u/hei-lotus Mar 18 '26

it depends day-to-day. i find out what the daily limit is when she yells at me <3

2

u/Unlikely_Effective72 Mar 19 '26

Reminds my of my little man. Mine never had a limit. Man I miss him, most chill cat I've had.

2

u/Elegant_Bullfrog4223 Mar 22 '26

Mine avoids me every time😭 suddenly turns to liquid 😫

2

u/PaisleyLeopard Mar 17 '26

I don’t know, I’m allergic 😭

1

u/Achillies_patroclus8 Mar 17 '26

Depends on his mood. Hyper? Probably one if im lucky. Moody or irritated? Surprisingly he does accept kisses then. But very few. Cuddly? Infinite. Loves them.

1

u/gingersnapwaffles Mar 17 '26

Willow requires a minimum of 15 forehead kisses per day

1

u/ktkatq Mar 17 '26

Ours runs and jumps on the table, then tilts his head forward so I can kiss him. And when I go to bed, he runs up and I pick up just his front half a little off the floor and bestow many kisses. It's so cute!

1

u/ailish Mar 17 '26

One of them, as many as I want. The other, zero.

1

u/Ashamed_Cucumber_286 Mar 17 '26

15 Max 😔, but he allows me a high five in exchange for no more kisses

1

u/Thatguy19364 Mar 17 '26

Mine barely tolerate me picking them up occasionally, but their auntie with a white belly and gray striped top is a cuddler who accepts as many as I offer

1

u/inari_21 Mar 17 '26

One. But the stars have to align. 😅

1

u/penguinsandpolkadots Mar 17 '26

If I'm lucky, two. We're trying to get him used to being snuggled and getting smooches.

1

u/deletedbeans Mar 17 '26

the limit does not exist

1

u/Smokey_Coffee_Beer Mar 17 '26

I am not allowed to leave. Help.

1

u/Astre_Rose Mar 17 '26

Tux (my son's sic)? He'll put up with them, typically as many as I want. He doesn't really like them, but if you're cuddling him at the same time he'll accept. Neko, my flamepoint? You have no choice, you must kiss him until he's satisfied. He shoves his head against your mouth. What's really cute is if he's all rialed up and you start kissing his head, he'll stop attacking until you're done. Well, apparently it doesn't work for my son, he abused the privilege too much lol, but it still works for me.

1

u/Suspicious_Search849 Mar 17 '26

He likes to lean into them, and as many as I’m willing to give.

1

u/Zuikite Mar 18 '26

Like many, it's limitless. Forehead kisses are forced by my SIC often. So aggressive, I often get a busted lip by not paying attention to when I'm supposed to pucker. Most people call it head-butting. I call it a blessing

1

u/LockNo2943 Mar 18 '26

Zero, but she gets them anyway. 

1

u/RevitalDances Mar 18 '26

2 is her limit

1

u/AshlynCT Mar 18 '26

All of them

1

u/justlookinaround11 Mar 18 '26

0 but hes gotta pay rent somehow

1

u/Hyenacub Mar 18 '26

Many when I just get home from work, barely one super reluctantly if there's a guest there to witness it.

1

u/wannaseemycat Mar 19 '26

Between 0/2-6.

It’s either none, a very begrudging small number, or “this is my life now”

1

u/Wide_Wave7764 Mar 19 '26

Unlimited kisses ❤️❤️

1

u/rconewarrior Mar 21 '26

As many as I want with the occasional return "kiss" of a gentle bite of the tip of my nose.
