Is this normal for a cat? Ever have a pet that liked to be spanked on the tuckus?
The light tapping of the last vertebra of the spine at the base of the tail is like a percussive massage for a cat so for some it's AMAZING...but like some humans other cats will shred you and your friend's faces for trying that! It can be very comforting to some animals to be lightly tapped up to sharply smacked on the large muscle of the rump...it's just a quirk of your little Dip.
I had a cat who would go INSANE if you touched her back and hindquarters but would purr and nuzzle at you if you pet her belly. She was an odd little thing to say the least.
