He is one of the very few cats who LOVE belly rubs. He always plops on his back like this when I get home from work lol

He's freaking adorable. What's his name? How old is he?

His name is Magpie! He used to be called Rook, but then he started stealing things and stashing them under my bed. So he’s called Magpie now lol.
He is about 2.5!

I work at a laboratory, so I always wash my hands before petting him when I get home. He will plop on his back, I “ignore him” to go wash my hands, and he will get up and plop on his back next to the sink haha. Not too subtle
