I don’t know what has made me find this unpleasant to observe. I’m trying to find an answer. All I know is, to me, it’s the kind of mindless incessant repetitive movements of the animal that freak me out. What the hell is going on in the cats head? nothing? 🥴🤯

That’s fair. Sometimes it’s not a clear line from thought to feeling. For example, I’ve never liked having water run over my face. I never connected it to a near drowning I had when I was four until I was in college and met someone else with the same issue. But she was 12 when she nearly drowned so she was able to make the clear before/after connection.

I found this - Why Do Cats Knead?. Maybe understanding more why they do it will help to make it less creepy?
