Our desire isn't #taboo! It's purr-fectly natural.

If your pets are resisted, it’s time to switch up your technique.

No quick #pets to rush them there!

Some kitties like soft strokes, some like a firm grip.

Knows the importance of fur-play.

Won't settle for anything less than the good stuff!

This #kitty knows exactly how they like to be petted!

🤳🏽If platforms censor #pleasure talk, we’ll let the #cats do the talking 😼 Boundaries, #consent, and taking your time - we're sharing the meow-code for a pawsitively good time!💋
Because on International #OrgasmDay, we’re closing the #orgasm gap - one happy #pussy at a time. 😼🐾
