Welcome, Lisa!!! I like the "bumples." Lightning rubs my nose more then a head butt-more like a eskimo kiss. We call them "kitty smooches"

OR, when the little dickens want something
Besides "Hello" and "You smell good-where have you been???", That's about the only reason he does it. I taught him-I actually taught him to DO something!-to give me a kitty smooch when he wants a kitty treat.
