Four paws and mouth. Cats love it for like x number of seconds, then suddenly part of their lizard-cat brain kicks. I swear this is some kind of instinct behavior carried over from evolution.
I used to have this very sweet very old cat, I had for years. She would lay next to me in bed and let me pet her stomach. One time she did the weird belly bite claw attack thing, or started to. Chompers at the ready around my thumb. But instantly stopped and froze in place. We were both shocked. I turned to look at her like “wtf just happened?” My hand still in place. And she’s looking back at me like “wtf just happened?” Like she didn’t even know. It was so bizarre and out of character. I kind of laughed, and I think she felt bad. Then we continued cuddling.
Cats will ask for it though. They will lay next to you and roll over, expose their stomach to you. Then welcome you petting them for some short amount of time.

If you randomly touch some people’s stomachs enough, they might pounce as well.
