I'm whipped

I'm sitting on a not-so-comfy chair that I dragged in from the kitchen
so I could use the computer, because... you guessed it - a cat is curled
up on my regular computer chair. And she looks so comfy I just couldn't
disturb her.

Yep been there done that. What makes it worse is that Sammy has
discovered that she likes being spun around on the computer chair. So
sometimes I bring in a folding chair and she reaches over and paws at
me until I start spinning the merry go round for her.

Roxy (who was the cat in question earlier, curled up on my good chair)
LOVES to be spun around. I've got to find someone with a video camera so
they can tape me spinning Roxy around really fast on the chair. You know
what she does while being spun? She washes herself! I'd like to get that
on tape and send it to Animal Planet, so they could show it and send me
$100. :)

Also, I'd like to tape Licorice stalking soap bubbles. Every time I even
open the drawer where I keep the bottle of soap, he comes racing in from
wherever he is. When I blow a stream of bubbles, he chatters and chirps
as though he's looking at birds. I've seen much less funny things than
that on Planet's Funniest Animals...

Don't forget the T-shirt ;-)

lol, Cav does that. He's also figured out that if he jumps onto the chair,
it spins for a while by itself. AND he spins himself round by pushing
against the side of the desk. He loves that chair.

Sammy hasn't figured out the pushing against the desk trick - maybe
she figures she doesn't need to as long as the hoomin spins her. She
does spin herself sometimes by jumping from the dining table to the
top of the chair back - just a couple feet but she can spin around
couple times. If she wants more she start scratching the chair - a
no-no, but it gets my attention and after a brief scolding she usually
gets more spin time.

Wow, he's one smart kitty! Wish I could say the same for Roxy. :) She
just sits there and looks up at me expectantly. But she makes up for
brains with cuteness. (Does that make her a bimbo, LOL?)

Steve Touchstone <stouchst@junksirinet.net> had some very interesting

Felix hates it when I spin him. :-)

Isn't it funny?  Just like babies.  Some babies love to spin around,
and be thrown around, and feel those G-forces. ;)  Other babies hate
it.  
Before they're six months old, you know who's never going on the
roller coaster, and who's going to end up riding naked, backwards and
no hands, thirty times in a row. ;)

So does Litte Bit. If I even touch the chair she hops down. Course
that just means Sammy has all the fun ;-)
