It's like the story of the frog and scorpion crossing the river.

LOL

Apparently when a cat does this they are showing they trust you. You break this trust when you rub their belly. This causes them to violently attack you. True story and I would do it again.

Depends on the cat and how it has been trained and if they like belly rubs. Some of them simply don't like it. Mine for instance shows me the belly all the time, and it isn't a trap. I will at most get a lovebite and then he starts licking my hand. While I still pet him.

Because, cat.

I feel like these four panels (or the basic story/theme) should be made into the "hello world" of comic drawing.

Meanwhile there is a stray in my apartment that follows me around whenever I'm outside and comes over to get his belly rubbed. If I don't rub his belly, he bites.

A certain rock band might take exception to that

Sometimes the instincts kick in! Sorry human!
