Hazel loves what we call the Noggin Grab. I don’t know why, it does not look comfortable, but she purrs and purrs and asks for more

Animals are wild. My parents' cat likes to be shoved across the floor while he's on his side. No idea how they discovered it but if you do it once you will have to do it a couple dozen times at least.

My cats (and I think a lot of cats) love rubbing their faces on things. This is sort of the ultimate version of that.

In my household it’s called “smoosh the face” and it’s almost as popular as “put back in the womb” which is just a full body, tight squeeze.

If she's trusting and relaxing into it, she's probably getting a mayofascial release of all her face muscles, and feeling it in her whiskers. A lot of migraine people probably get this intuitively.

My dog loves what we call "aggressive love". It's hard, it's weird, & involves a lot of squeezing. Seems Hazel may also be a lover of aggressive love too.

I love weird cats
My cat loved it when you smacked the base of his tail
That was 30 years ago, so admittedly not as weird to discuss spanking these days, esp on the skyline but you know. Context

My bunny liked something very similar, and it did not seem fun to me, but he’d shove his head against your hand to get harder pets and head squishings.

We had a cat who loved this back when I was a little kid.
I have no idea why, but it became a game where, when his ears were scrunched down during the Noggin Grab, I'd say stuff (for him) like "I lost my ears in the WAR!"
