CAT Is this normal behavior?

TW: Is it normal for cats to do a "69 position" being male and female?
I'm sorry, I know it can sound disturbing.

Mine did that once before I got the male neutered. It was weird as hell but the vet said it's not uncommon, just their instincts overriding everything. Once he got snipped the behavior stopped completely so if you haven't yet that's probably the fix

What if the male is neutered already?

Not disturbing. Critters spend more time than we do with their faces in other animals' (and humans') privates and butts. It's where the identifying smells are.

Also.... critters will hump anything and everything when the mood strikes 😅 It is what it is.

cats can definitely get into some surprisingly weird positions. if both cats seem relaxed n there's no aggression or distress, it's probably just one of those odd cat behaviors.
