It went through my mind even before I clicked further. Some words just translate regardless of the language. But as you say below, I did then wonder because the image is brioll that way re the standing on bit. So thank you for the historical connotation below too. It’s fascinating.
I thought you might like the mini history.
I thought I should add that sometimes it’s translated as “Don’t tread on me” like the motto on the Gadsden flag. The 1861 Alabama flag has “Noli me tangere” on one side of the flag. It was a popular phrase for the early years of the revolutionary USA and has been used as a motto by various military squadrons.
See that, right there one, two, three, four perfect reasons we do not own a kitty! Dogs walk across me in the morning and whack the side of my face to wake up and take them out..no harm, no pain, just a bit startled when coming out of deep sleep. If a cat does that you are calling a blood bank for a withdrawal. Didn’t Hemingway have kitties with SIX toes … shudder.
Off Center & Not Even 
LBK’s murder mittens look similar!
I can imagine. Thanks, Leenda.
Loki is likely not a penitent? Possessed maybe 🙂 Great photo, Tim
More like the latter. Thanks, Mary Jo.
Don’t worry, Loki. I have no intention of touching you!
Loki loves to be loved on. Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Start from scratch.
Looks mischievous.
That’s why his name is Loki. Thanks, Brad.
No, no, no… He’s just stretching!
Right. Thanks, Dale.
😉
I think he’s just showing off his long nails 🙂 Maybe he wants them painted – LOL
Loki with painted nails would be fun. Thanks, Rudi.
Don’t mess with me, paparazzi…!!
You got that right. Thanks, Herman.
The translation here would be, ‘Dinnae mess wi me.’ Great pic.
You got that right. Thanks, Shey.

Just on the ears and the nose maybe? 😉
In truth, Loki loves to be loved. Thanks, Marina.
I thought so! 😉
Show off! He just wants to make me jealous over his nails.
He is proud of his nails. Thanks, nancy.
Ha ha, wouldn’t dare!
Loki is just showing off. Thanks, Couriers.
Loki is toeing the line.. maybe give him a pedi!! 🥹
Thanks, Cindy.

Thanks, Melli.
That is some set of nails on Loki! 🙂
He’s proud of his claws. Thanks, Lavinia.
Awww….. Baby kitten!
From any angle cats are adorable!
They are. Thanks, Resa.

There are kitties with up to ten toes. I do have to sleep in cat armor. Thanks, Brian.
