Is it normal that my cat licks you when you scratch her back?

Well when we got her my mom started scratching her back and she starting licking her. It was awkward.....

  • Cats do that sometimes, it's their way of affection or one of them. It was just being friendly, sometimes cats will lick a human on the arm or leg, almost like washing them in the way they would wash each other as siblings.

    I have two cats who are sisters and both of them wash each other and have washed my arm as a thank you although I don't like it, they are just being friendly.

    You should feel honored, haha. It's her way of showing you love and respect.
