So I lay back on the bed to read a bit. Both Buster and Little Feet
are in the living room, watching Senyah crochet. Senyah is snippy
about stealing her yarn, so they just watch, heads bobbing up and
down, as the thread slowly snakes up out of the yarn bag.
Eventually, Buster realizes that my lap has been moved! He wanders
around, meowing and listening for a response, to locate me. Finally, I
meow back, and he come dashing into the bedroom, leaps onto the bed,
and leaps again, onto my bladder.
He settles in, and goes to sleep.
Little Feet, not to be left out, jumps up on the bed. I am reading an
e-book on my Treo 600, so I am holding it up in the air. Little Feet
skootches up into my right armpit, which makes pressing the next-page
button a bit cumsy.
Being slightly ambidextrous, I try to switch to the othe hand. By now,
however, Buster has slort of ozzed closer to my chin, such that my
left had is in an uncomfortable position. Plus, everytime, I lower my
hands, to be more comfortable, Buster starts head-butting them, and
wants his head skritched.
Now Little Feet is exposing his tummy to me, and expects skritches
too. What's a good cat slave to do?
I turn off the Treo, set it down, and start pampering my two
spoiled-rotten boys. Geez, I haven't a clue how they became so
spoiled...
Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

this)

Mmmm. That's mine and Rosie's afternoon routine. I go in the bedroom to
watch a little TV. Rosie shows up from wherever she has been and crawls as
close as she can get into my right armpit. If it cool she curls into a ball
as close as she can get. If its warm she melts into the longest cat she can
be. (Either way I have one very warm armpit). Then she grumps it any
attempts to get hold of the remote or to use it disturb her in the
slightest.
Can't outstare a cat? I can't outnap one. So far my record is 3 1/4 hours
without disturbing her.

That is what I get every night when I go to bed; only there are three
of them that sleep with me. Amber just comes up to get pets and then
leaves. I love being a catslave; but it is hard to stretch out or turn
over.

I wonder where cats get the idea that humans are platforms? Betty
doesn't like it if I'm lying on my side while reading. She keeps
poking me like I'm an elevator button, until I roll over on my back.
And of course, furry purry heads always manage to materialize under an
unoccupied hand.
