It seems that almost all cats like to be hugged by excrement shovelers. However, if the excrement shoveling officer doesn't hold the cat in the right way, it will make the cat angry. The following is the reason why my cat hates being held by excrement shoveling officials. I hope I can help you.
Reason 1: cats hate being bound
Cats hate dealing with strangers or being bound by people. After all, cats have a strong independent survival instinct. They don't take the same way as dogs to please humans to obtain survival opportunities (although the excrement shoveler is still feeding them), so they will feel that being hugged is like having no freedom, which will make them hate being hugged.
Reason 2: because of the connection between hugging and trauma
Cats who like hugging and cats who hate hugging have completely different views on hugging. The former felt that being hugged would bring a sense of security, while the latter felt that back hugging would bring danger.
For example, if the excrement shoveling officer once took the cat to a place where the cat was afraid, the cat would associate the hug with the place of fear. Or if the excrement shoveling officer once held the cat and accidentally let him fall a big somersault, it will make the cat feel that the hug is specially to hurt him. (some cats simply hate the smell of shoveling officials because they don't want to be hugged)
Reason 3: exposing the belly will upset the cat
The belly is a weak place for cats. They generally don't expose their belly. When the excrement shoveling officer hugs the cat, the cat's belly will be exposed unprepared, which may make the cat hate being hugged and keep shaking
This also shows that the cat has not established enough trust with the excrement shovel, otherwise they will not shake even if they feel uneasy. Especially some cats hate being hugged by strangers. At this time, they will make some bad actions, such as biting, grabbing or making a noise.
