Agree with Michele (MyFairLacy), she is most likely "marking" her territory. her new home, etc.

She's basically leaving her "scent" so others know it s "hers".

They're funny like that. COuld you imagine if humans did that too. LOL! We'd rub our butts all over the place!--"IT'S MINE!!!"

Thanks for the laugh!!

I think it is a form of marking their territory. Mine love rubbing up against couches and Scampers will even rub his whole body all over the carpet at someone else's house, it is so funny to watch.

Prissie does this whenever she walks down the hall, she will walk real close to one of the walls and rub as she walks. Immediately after I brush her, she will walk up and down the hall rubbing herself on the wall. Miko does it to the sofa, he walks up and down the sofa rubbing himself, he usually does it right after he eats dinner, not breakfast, just dinner, go figure?
