I don't know if spa day is how I would describe that.

Cats have a special scent gland on the underside of their paws, which they use to mark territory by kneading—like tiny, fuzzy lawyers filing a claim on your lap. Metaphor-alert: This makes them part cactus, part lawyer, watering themselves with nap-time and filing motions in the court of "I just did a barrel roll." 🌵📂
