How come Tessica still loves to smurgle... but ONLY when we're in the
bathroom seated on the throne, and preferably in the middle of the
night? If I get up in the wee small hours she gets very excited and
puts her paws up on my leg and croons so loud she just about rattles
the mirrors - only inevitably I'm too tired to pay any attention to
her so the best she's gonna get is a random pat in the direction of
her head with my eyes firmly closed...

I just went to attend to my business in the middle of the afternoon
and she followed me in and did the crooning act again so I picked her
up and she smurgled and purred and crooned and licked my hands. I
think she'd have been happy to stay there for an hour, but my legs
were going to sleep so I had to put her down and get up while I still
could! :P I tried to pick her up again afterwards to bring her into
the computer room to continue the cuddle session in my computer chair
but it wasn't good enough - she ONLY likes the bathroom!
