What do cats do in order to show affection to humans? In other words what is equal to a kiss in cat world?

AN asked:


Do they understand when you pick them up and kiss them that you are being affectionate or what do they think? Is it possible to teach cats to peck (kiss) you on the mouth? Has anyone done this?

    Both of my kittens do the following when they are being incredibly affectionate and want to show their appreciation in a kissy-way:
    -Knead with their paws on mine or my husband’s chests, legs, shoulders.
    -Suck on our cheeks, arms, try to **** on our lips, and even my husband’s nose.
    -Bite - a gentle bite or sometimes a quick hard one, while purring, and licking you with their tongue. This is the best kind and this is considered a ‘cat kiss’. If they are scratching you when they bite they are playing, but if they just walk up and suddenly nip you, are nip you when you are petting them and they are purring, it’s considered to be a cat kiss.

    Yes, they understand. And my cat loves it! He likes to nuzzel our foreheads together. And he loves to kiss me on my neck, and I kiss him on his neck and forehead. When he gets a little “over” loving, he will give me a nip, like a love bite. They understand affection, praise, and nice soft voices.
