Why do cats lick you

Licking is grooming.
And grooming happens when you have been accepted.
It’s a sign of love. Your kitty loves you. :o)

My cat Alissa does that to me. But she always tries to lick my face, and that I don’t like. But I let her lick my hands and stuff. It is just a way of them loving you and grooming you. If the cat did not like you then it would not do that. So think of it as a good thing. Sometimes it hurts, cause it feels like sand paper, but that is good for them to keep their fur clean…

i know 100% why i am a personl expert on cats so why you ask ! not all cats do this but some will lick their owners hand while they are being petted.if your cat does this, she may be grooming you.cats will somtimes groom other cats or other pets they are friendly with such as a dog. this grooming is a sighn of closeness!!! there is your anwser!!!!
