Do I get the impression that Perrine is a smallish cat? A cat of sufficient size (not that I'm thinking of anyone in particular) can have a tendency to stand on randomly selected sore spots and do ill-judged shiatzu.
Mind you, when the same cat settles down, she's quite a competent purring heating pad.
I haven't heard of any electric massagers that do low pressure with small variations to get a sort of a purr effect, though I should think it's possible.

A purr-emulating vibrator might be useful, but there's more than just the physical sensation involved when it's an actual cat.

I quite agree that a purr-programmed vibrator isn't comparable to an actual cat, but mere usefulness isn't so bad.
It's not so much that I'm looking for cat substitutes as that I'm annoyed with the dreary mechanicalness of existing massage tools.
