Why does my cat headbutt me?
Besides having scent glands in their pads, cats also have scent glands on their heads and cheeks. So whenever your cat gives your a little headbutt they are marking you as their owner. However, it can be more complex than just marking their scent. Cats may give you a little headbutt to show that they trust and respect you. Take note of when your cat gives you a headbutt. Sometimes it’s to get your attention if you are spending too much time on your phone and not enough attention on them.
