Mimi, sweet-pea that she is, likes to curl up nest to my pillow (purring
volume turned UP) when I lay (lie?) in bed reading, usually on the side
nearest the edge of the bed. When she gets to a reaaaaaly good part in her
kitty dreams, she starts moaning & chirping as she purrs, and she then gets
restless, curling this way, then that way, doing upside-downey head, hiding
her face from the evil light, when all of a sudden - THUMP, she's on the
floor. Having squirmed her way closer to my shoulder, she narrowly missed
hitting the corner of the nightstand (we have those extra-thick pillow-top
mattresses, so the nightstand is about 1/2 an inch below the top of the
mattress). I look over to make sure she's not hurt (beside her pride), and
that her hard little head didn't put a dent in the 79-year-old hardwood
floor, and she just hops right back up to finish her nap. The other day, she
did this *TWICE*, within 10 minutes!!!! Talk about power napping.

Well, maybe she wasn't drunk (haven't given them fresh catnip in days!)
but Case rolled over in her sleep and fell to the floor with a thump.
Sssh! She looked at me to see if I noticed but I kept looking at the
monitor so she climbed back on the stool again. Innkeeper! Set'em up
again! Norm (she's by far the loudest snoring cat I've ever see^H^H^H
heard)
