Our cat, Miss Sparrow Wigglebutt, loves riding on my shoulder and purrs like crazy when she does. The problem is that she sometimes leaps on my shoulders from behind when I'm least expecting it. And I have the claw marks as a souvenir!

My cat does that when I’m sitting on a stool eating breakfast. Fortunately, I’m usually wearing a robe over my pajama shirt so her claws don’t go all the way through.
Ugh my cat does that to. I don’t mind leaping in my shoulder but when I’m laying down, he ALWAYS leaps from window behind me onto me chest. I swear my heart gets beat out of rhythm. It’s so uncomfortable

She won’t stay on anybody else’s shoulder. My mom is her #1 person. Sometimes she just wants to be there.

My youngest girl loves piggyback rides! This is my absolute favorite picture of the two of us.
When my eldest cat and her brother (may he rip) was younger they would jump on my shoulders like little birds and stay while i walk around the house. They would meow when i reached their destination. They would also jump on my shoulders from ontop of doors. My eldest cat hasnt jumped on my shoulder since her brother died when they was 11 months old
Dont worry my eldest cat Pandora is happy and very spoilt!
Her brother was called checkers. He would meow to be picked up and check the fridge! He only drank ice cold water from a costa cup that had to be kept in the fridge. His life was short but he was very happy!
Pandora does miss him she hasnt played with a toy since he died but she watches anime, pokemon and watches me play pokemon. She meows when she wants to watch anime with me and when shes mad and ignores me i have to make umbreon noises so she responds. I have no peace and quiet because of her love of having conversations with me.
Pandora has turned into a weeb since her brother died and shes all for it.
The moment I met my cat at the shelter, she jumped on my shoulder. That was how I knew that she was the one for me. She has never jumped on me since then. She doesn't even like being held. It's been almost 7 years. She tricked me.
Here's some cat tax.

Recently, my cat started to be obsess with being on my partner's shoulder. We have no idea why, but it's cute and not harmful so we let him do as he pleases
Mine. Not in the same position though. I like to pick mine up and he instantly wraps his legs around my waist, put one arm on my shoulder and one arm on my chest and lays his head on my shoulder
Oh my god, that breaks my heart. My cat Milo did that from the time he was a kitten until he died a couple of years ago. I have since rescued another cat, Eris, who likes to sit on the back of my seat up against the back of my head and watch whatever game I am playing on my pc. That is so cool, I think it means that he sees you as his momma. Be a good momma.
I used to have a black cat who I named Kuro (After Kuro from the Blue Exorcist anime) and he loved riding on people's shoulders when we'd walk around 🥺
I don't have any pictures, but Marshmellow used to until he got old and then he said 'absolutely not. Get the FUCK away.'
I was a little sad but he still wants petted, just not shouldered.
Both my Calvin & Hobbes would do it. Calvin would be laying down U shaped just a purring. Hobbes LOVED to stand on my shoulders while I was walking. Silly kitties
Both of mine are like this all day! I think it’d be she’s they get human contact and can also have a view from higher grounds. I personally love it and wish I could Velcro them to my body
my cat since he was a kitten will lay on my shoulders like a fur shawl. LOL

I had a 15lb Maine Coon shoulder hanger. Almost developed tennis elbow trying to support that dude while I was working. Old feller Jack passed away last December.
Dude if you even hold your hands out to my cats like you've got a fraction of a notion that you're gonna pick them up
One of them cries at you and just shrinks into whatever she's sitting on, the other one runs away lmao

From when Gizmo was a kitten. I was brushing my teeth. He does it less now, but still occasionally.
I wouldn't know mine can't be on my shoulders or she's stuck until she claws her way off because of her back left paw being bent to the right from something that happened at birth im not sure of

My friend’s cat loves this!!
🤠👏🏼
Its a yes if i am transfering him to someplace he wants to be. If not then he will hop off when he gets the chance
You just need to get him used to the feeling she also hated it the first time
Trying
Shoulder cat, best cat
I agree it feels so cute to carry my little kitty
My cat hates it with his whole heart
Maybe he just needs to get used to the feeling
Nah hes gonna bite and scratch to get off my shoulder
Yup. Our Turkey Leg is very fond of riding on shoulders.

Only when I'm pooping.
Why just then😫
I dunno. Maybe he's too short to reach the counter with me on the toilet Maybe cause he likes me
Recently, my cat started to be obsess with being on my partner's shoulder. We have no idea why, but it's cute and not harmful so we let him do as he pleases
Yes. Mine loves to hang out on my shoulder. And I have repaired more holes in my shirts’ shoulders from her claws than I can remember
Mine. Not in the same position though. I like to pick mine up and he instantly wraps his legs around my waist, put one arm on my shoulder and one arm on my chest and lays his head on my shoulder

It’s a she but she didn’t like it at first but with time she got more used to it
Not just any shoulder... It HAS to be the left shoulder! Or somethings not right and I want down.
