This is Possum. I’m glad she lets me rub her belly because she’s so soft.

      I had a calico who would do the same! It took years but eventually she went from being stand-offish to demanding them.

      I’m not sure of her breed. My sister found her on the side of the road when she was only a few weeks old.

      I always guessed she was a snowshoe, which is a Siamese mix breed. Her pattern is near identical to what comes up googling “snowshoe cat”. But I can’t be certain.

    My (neutered) boy, Silky, absolutely adored tummy rubs. Not just chest, but actual lower abdomen. He’d purr his head off and streeetch (and drool, after FORL destroyed most of his teeth). As far as I know he was just a regular moggie - he certainly didn’t come with papers from the shelter!

    I think that is ragdoll thing. My ragdoll always begs for belly rubs when I leave the room. But does not sit on a lap. She likes being around people but not on people :D
