Hi
I was just wondering if u think male or female cats like to cuddle more?

I said male.....that is what mine were like anyway.....but I really think they both can cuddle......just like people, each is different.......Out the door to work....Have a safe Friday the 13th!

All the males I've ever had were lovers! Females always seemed to want to be left alone. Our son has one very nasty female that intimidates and harrasses the male.

I am surprised that u both said males were more cuddly. Wilbur is the only cat I've owned and he is not cuddly, so I thought maybe females would be more cuddly. Interesting.

Any one else?

I agree . . . males are more social. Perhaps not outside roaming toms, but when it comes to housecats, girls are moody and mean, the boys just want to be loved!

In the 23 years I have been married I have had 5 cats. 3 Females and 2 males. 2 of the females were snooty cats, who generally hated to cuddle. Both males were very (are)cuddly and lovey. My only cuddly female is my shelter rescue cat, Kanga. She was extremely lovey the first 6 to 9 months we owned her, she now is roaming the yard like the other cat and is more standoffish as she is fitting into pet household.

I think I prefer male dogs to female dogs also. Have had better luck with them.

We have our old girl FuzzButt who HATES to be held unless it is exactly on her terms. Our two new boys, on the other hand, are the biggest snugglers you could imagine. Monkey gets in this mood where he just can't get close enough to you, tries to wedge himself under your chin, and he is purring and nuzzling so hard that he actually drools!

Definitely the boys...

I voted male - in general. Truth is, the cuddliest I've ever had were females. Gracie is one of them, Mariah was another. Cuddly cuddly cuddly little bears

I have to agree that I think that males are more cuddly. Maggie is the first female cat I've owned and you don't pick her and love her... you wait until she comes to you! My new kitty, Harry, you can pick up anytime and he just goes limp in your arms and purrs!

I didn't cast a vote. I was thinking I would vote for males, but then Buttercup (my older female) jumped up on me and proceded to purr and snuggle with me. I have (and have had) females and males who liked to snuggle and others that didn't want to be held, so it's a toss up.

Gee, I always thought females would be more loving but since I heard all about the males I don't know what to think. I have been thinking about "maybe" adopting a kitten from the shelter sometime in the future,,, (don't tell hubs) and I just wanted to get a heads up on which sex is more cuddly, maybe I will have to get one of each.

Wilbur will give kisses on my fingers and lays beside me on the couch to watch tv, but he doesn't lay touching me, he lays on the other end of the couch and he doesn't like to be picked up for very long,,, about five seconds.I just wish he'd like to cuddle.

The actual cuddlers I've had - those that want to be on me or touching me all the time - were/are girls. My boys just want to be petted 24/7

[Tundra_Queen]

snow, yes Wilbur doesn't mind to be petted,,, most times,,, when he gets tired though he will bite....

I've owned mostly boy cats and all of them have been cuddlers except the new kitty Kole that DD left with me. But I think he's probably been traumatized and abused by a former owner so I'll give him a pass.

The one female I owned, Sylvie, was a sweetheart but the only time she demanded cuddles was when her food dish was empty.
