We adopted a cat yesterday. He seems to settling in well despite my two young boys. He has started jumping onto my lap while purring then sticks his claws as far as he can into my legs. He won't stop this until I put him back on the floor. What is he trying to do is it normal and how can I stop him doing it to my boys in the future.

Sounds like he is 'kneading' you. My two cats do this while turning round and round until they are comfortable. I see it as a sign of affection

I don't think you will be able to stop it. Trying to stop a cat doing anything it wants to do is impossible.

Yep, he's a cat. That's what cats do... You could frighten the bejesus out of him so he won't come to you and then you won't get clawed but you'll miss out on his 'feline affection'.

Thanks for the replies. Sorry I seem to have accidently started two threads. I was receiving lots of feline affection when I posted it. That soundsso very wrong 😯
