Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / December 2004my purry boy
Licky likes to curl up on my desk between me and the keyboard, when I'm on the computer. He's here right now as I type, with his head on my right arm, his front paw on my wrist, and his butt up against my left arm. Amazingly, I can type just fine like this. I'm used to it, because Roxy and Smudge both do it, too. When he first gets up here, he purrs his head off. Then he settles down to go to sleep, and gets quiet. But all I have to do is look down at him and exclaim, "Licky! What a good boy!" or something like that, and the motor starts right up again. Without me even moving a muscle. And he has a nice, loud purr, too, a deep bass sound.

Though Rhett has now discovered bubbels and has managed to make the bubbels REALLY REALLY big somehow. It didn't help, I tell you. :)  SignatureCheryl > Licky likes to curl up on my desk between me and the keyboard, when > I'm on the computer.

Mimi loves to curl up there and purr herself to sleep when I'm mesmerized by a game ;). Couple of times she's slept so good, she's rolled over and plopped off the desktop and onto my keyboard. Moe will sometimes join her, and they will sleep there for a while. Then poor l'il Ping comes along wanting to join them, but there's no room for him! He ends up wedging himself behind me in my chair. --? The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

I used to find it difficult to type with her draped over my left arm like that but quickly grew to realize that's just the way things are. I love it when the "motor" starts up again.

As I've said here before, I don't know why no one has marketed a CD of a cat's purr as a sleep inducement. If your furball (in your case, Stinky) takes the night off from purring duties, you set the CD player to "repeat" and get a blissful night's sleep. Purrs; (to borrow Flippy's signoff) Bobcat >> Awww.

Purring is the world's most relaxing sound, IMO - better than ocean waves, waterfalls, or tinkling chimes in the wind. I think there's a business niche here... Joyce > >> Awww.

I think there's a business niche here... Sounds like "someone" here should take the initiative and make money hand over fist =) Signaturemonique, who is sometimes allowed to pet Oscar, a grey DLH with an attitude! |
