Most four legged animals are really not into being flipped on their belly. It's where their vulnerable stuff is. Being shown a cat belly means they trust you. Also scooping them that way isn't good for their spines either
it not being good for their spines is new to me, and i can't find info on it online. i'm not trying to debate-bro you but if you have sources i'd be interested. if you don't i'm not going to assume you're wrong or making shit up, just something i'd like to know more about.
Well, cause of the directions spines bend on cats. They told in, not out, would you rather a giant lifted you up by your butt or flipped you over and picked you up by your back?
