The human body releases endorphins, the body's natural 'feel good' hormones during stress and as a response to pain. Endorphins is released during activities like exercise and in some like shopping or gambling which may result in additive behaviour.
Cats, too, release endorphins, which make them feel good, by stretching and scratching.
And Tanya here shows how.
First, you get into the right position.
Then, you stretch and scratch.

Tanya has got just the right actions - we love to stretch our backs when we have a scratch too. Don't tell our Mum we scratch we think she may not have noticed (claws crossed!!)

Great stretching, Tanya! We're going to do some of that right now. :)
I want to live like a cat. Everything is about pleasure. Purrrrr.....
Great technique My little ig is having seizure after seizure
purrfesional technique! I think I'll go practice =^_^=
Cute! For some reason i don't understand i prefer cat over dog, maybe it is the gracefulness that cat exudes.
Oh you look so comfy. All stretched out enjoying the pull on your clawsies.
I LOVE to scratch and stretch!
