Lol mine does it if I keep perfectly still, so any overwhelming going on is purely of her own making. Luckily she’s tiny and her claws don’t really penetrate. And god, those sorry licks inbetween…
Mine used to, too, but we mostly managed to train it out of him. He’d literally get in your lap and do a combat roll into this kind of thing. I think it was supposed to say “play with me”. Or just cat mischief.
My cat is always playful and energetic lol but he’s a wild one at 1 1/2. Got a 2nd one and she’s helping calm him down thankfully, she’s just also the sweetest damn thing, purrs at the drop of a hat
That’s the kitty getting overwhelmed. Move your arm out the way for a bit to let him calm down.
This doesn’t work if your cat is just feeling playful or energetic.

Yep, my male cat is a bit special, and he gets over stimulated very easily, and he only does this when he is.
