Brian, I found the perfect defense for you!

Your kitty is inhaling your scent to bring it into the Jacobson's organ, aka vomeronasal sac. Kitty really, really likes the smell.

Still can't confirm or deny if kitty wants to eat you. Take care and be careful.

If you do get eaten, can I have your kitten?

If it eats me, it could eat you.

yep, that's why I want it

Evolution has convinced you that your cat may want to eat you?  Welp, so much for evolution then. Not even lions will generally try to eat people.  Once in awhile there will be a rogue lion, but we're not seen as "prey."  If one attacks a person it's probably doing it defensively.  If a lion assumes you as a friend, you can possibly snuggle up like a house cat and people do.

Yes, Lions Will Hunt Humans If Given The Chance


And note: 

Quote:Since not all attacks are reported, it's hard to put numbers on the number of lion attacks seen globally. Estimates range from 20 to 250. Tanzania has the highest population of lions in Africa, and between 1990 and 2004, the country saw 593 deaths and 308 injuries from African lion attacks.

I must say I find a lot of expressions of emotions that dogs make really remind me how we are all related on the evolutionary tree.

The way a dog may sit on your lap and sigh, or get frustrated at something would seem to innately human otherwise.

Yep, defending territory.

I agree. One of my cats farted. The other one who was snuggling with him got up and smacked him for it.
