No claws, no destruction, just as if he trying to make a little burrow in the chair/sofa/floor. It's really cute, but never

No it's just a cat thing ^^ Some kitties like to make a little nest before they take a nap. I catch Domino doing it every now and then.

Are you describing kneading? I agree, it's really cute!

[ladysephiroth]

It's not kneading, I've seen him do that too, it's very much a digging motion. I've seen him knead his actual bed, which is also cute.

Most cats will knead, even if they've been declawed.

Our Pixie will knead, then go around in a little circle before he settles down, much like I've seen dogs do in cartoons. :>

Cats do it. It's called kneading. It's cute.
