Cats may enjoy being spanked because it can simulate grooming or scratching that they would receive from other cats. Gently tapping on their back or rear can also release endorphins, creating a sense of pleasure and relaxation. However, each cat is different; always observe their reactions to ensure they are comfortable and not stressed. If a cat seems agitated, it's best to stop.
