Rule of Cuteness #41: Exposing a vulnerable area is cute

by Meg on December 28, 2008

In a similar vein as Rule #2: “Look Helpless”, Rule #41 is all about exposing a VULNERABLE AREA!

If said area is SQUEEZABUHL and/or soft, this it’s all over.

Thank you for modeling, Ben the kitteh and alert Sender-Inner Erin L.

I give up – you may reign on me your snorgling terror.

2 Jenn 12.28.08 at 8:40 pm

Oh, the temptation to tickle, snorgle, or otherwise put my own soft and vulnerable parts in danger of meeting the extended pointy ends…

3 DanS 12.28.08 at 8:41 pm

Don’t fall for it! It’s a trap!

4 kibblenibble 12.28.08 at 8:45 pm

Oooops! SUNbeams, not SUM beams. And lets not forget toe beams–er, beans!:-)

“I control the sun!”

7 Amelia_T 12.28.08 at 9:13 pm

I love this new rule! I always try to find these spots on my kitty, but he is very protective!

8 i_wuvs_puttins 12.28.08 at 9:24 pm

Must control self…I cannot succumb to the lethal cuteness of the little pink toe beans and “take me, I’m yours” body posish…too late…*ded*

13 Cheryl-Lee 12.28.08 at 9:49 pm

Must… resist… paw pads! OOoo, so want to grab them paws and smoosh my face into the tummeh, may result in hospital attention but it would be worth it!!

14 BouvieGal 12.28.08 at 9:52 pm

er..**blinks shyly** Conan the Grammarian moment here..do I see a typo in the “this it’s all” part of the lead-in?
If not, don’t mind me :)

15 Annie J 12.28.08 at 9:54 pm

16 Electrice 12.28.08 at 10:05 pm

17 Charlie 12.28.08 at 10:14 pm

This is such a smily kitteh =^-^= he is obviously sunworshipping to make his belly extra warm and snorgleable!

18 Alexis 12.28.08 at 10:17 pm

And God said, “Let there be kitties.” And there were kitties; and it was cute.

TOES! OhMyBob kitteh toes. I am dead.

23 debg 12.28.08 at 11:15 pm

It might be a trap but I’m helpless to resist–like a mosquito flying toward the light on a bug zapper. Toooooo cuuuuttteee.

24 lucy's mommeh 12.28.08 at 11:16 pm

I have to ask out kitty Molly, if I can pet her belly. sometimes she’s okay with it, other times she gets up & runs away.

She’s a previously used model, she has boundaries that have to be respected.

25 lucy's mommeh 12.28.08 at 11:17 pm

*OUR* Kitty ..not out kitty.

She’s strictly an indoor cat.

26 Josh N 12.28.08 at 11:46 pm

This is the pic they show in stage one of Snorgle addiction treatment. If you can resist it, you are well on your way to overcoming this terrible disease.

27 Gail (the first one) 12.29.08 at 12:04 am

Kitteh is getting a suntan ALL OVER! My personal favorite axis of snorling….the armpits!!!!!

28 victoreia 12.29.08 at 1:09 am

34 AuntieMame 12.29.08 at 4:45 am

This looks like the revelation scene in an episode of Touched By an Angel.

35 meadowgirl 12.29.08 at 6:22 am

36 Hon Glad 12.29.08 at 7:52 am

Furburt target ahead.

37 Kar 12.29.08 at 8:50 am

Love means showing your bellah.

38 feezie 12.29.08 at 9:03 am

I done asked and asked and asked that a rule of cuteness be that if one has a white tummeh one must expose it at all times – I quess this is close enough so thanks!

39 Doxylover79 12.29.08 at 9:15 am

Is this one of Ben’s tricks that as soon as you put your head there to snorgle he grabs you like my own Rocky does????

40 mocax 12.29.08 at 1:00 pm

“hallelujah!” beams of light…

41 mberkie0 12.29.08 at 1:38 pm

Ooooooh! Pinkie toe beans!

42 Becky 12.29.08 at 1:39 pm

OMG! Soft belly, pink paw pads, dreamy expression, AND SUNBEAMS!! Are you trying to kill us?!

43 Katrina 12.29.08 at 2:28 pm

totalee puppy-Spring is right around the corner.

This kitteh is playing the oldest ‘con’ in the book- “Why, yes, the come razzle my belleh and get week-long-lasting long, stripey souvenirs to show to all your friends and family!” I’m not falling for that one!

44 C. 12.29.08 at 2:57 pm

She looks like she’s about to be beamed up by extraterrestrials.

45 Berg 12.29.08 at 5:11 pm

Ben and our Henry would make an awfully cute pair–Henry likes to sleep like that, too!

46 Mary (the first) 12.29.08 at 6:55 pm

Kitteh armpits are one of my favoritest parts of a kitteh .. after whiskers.

47 Mudd, the Grandmother 12.30.08 at 1:44 pm

Ben is my “Grandson”. He is a real cutie in person too!

48 Amanda 12.31.08 at 3:47 pm

I just want him to wipe his paws all over my face! I will forever love this pic!!
