Computer buddies
Just curious--how many of you have cats who love to be near you when
you're on the computer? Benny has never been a lap cat with me (though he is with my SO at times), so I found it surprising when he recently started jumping on my lap while I'm on the computer. Don't get me wrong, I love his company and purrs, but wonder if there's an attraction with the computer (sound? warmth?) or if the chair is at the right height for him? Rene

They compete for the pleasure of rubbing up against my legs.

enlightened us with... Just curious--how many of you have cats who love to be near you when you're on the computer? Benny has never been a lap cat with me (though he is with my SO at times), so I found it surprising when he recently started jumping on my lap while I'm on the computer. Don't get me wrong, I love his company and purrs, but wonder if there's an attraction with the computer (sound? warmth?) or if the chair is at the right height for him? The only time Rowan becomes a real cuddler is when I'm at the computer (or brushing my teeth, for some odd reason). I believe it is because when she was a sickly baby, small enough to hold in one hand, I would hold her and type at the same time. She slept in my hand at the computer. Then my arm. Now she kinda tries to sleep on my arm, but takes up the whole half of my body and hangs over, decides it's not that comfy any more, and sits on the desk instead. *LOL* -- -- ~kaeli~ He's your God, they're your rules - you burn in Hell. http://www.ipwebdesign.net/wildAtHeart http://www.ipwebdesign.net/kaelisSpace

Or a book. Or, for Pearl, playing the guitar. It is like, "oh, you must have time to pet ME if you are just doing that."

One of my cats routinely sits on my lap (or lies on the desk next to the PC - & under the lamp) while I'm at the computer. I think it's just the fact that I'm seated, staying in basically one position for "x" amount of time. Cathy
