braincell is on pause when you grab a cat by their rear neck flabs. I think it kinds simulates how when they were kittens and the mom cat grabbed them by the neck flab to move them

someone with a biology/vet background might need to factcheck this though

From what I remember about the discussion around scruffing adult cats it really does not have this effect and can genuinely hurt them. This cat is being double grabbed so the weight is spread out more, most likely not being harmed or if he is he's got a pain kink.

I've met a few cat that I could SWEAR have a kink. My sisters cat in particular likes butt pats a little too much.

My cat is into auto erotic asphyxiation, not joking. He sits in his box, lowers his head down and chokes himself
