Apache and Little Boy are learning to share

Apache and Little Boy are learning to share. Specifically, my lap.

Apache insists on my legs being uncrossed, and my feet flat on the floor
so she can sit on the free bit of chair cushion.

Eventually, Little Boy will jump up on the shredder next to me and stare
at her. After what Apache considers an appropriate amount of time to
make a boycat wait, she climbs down, and I cross my legs, which is
Little Boy's favorite sitting style.

This goes on about three times, with the two of them refusing to let an
empty lap go to waste, or for a lap to be in use too long by the other.
At least, my legs get a little bit of exercise.


Hugs and Purrs,
Mark

Nice to hear, thanks! A time-share lap must be a happy lap.

But then the feet go to sleep. Scooter is the main lapcat but Marlo
sometimes wants a time slice. Nipsy not so much. Sometimes Scooter
will climb onto the chair when Marlo is in my lap and it's like he
just doesn't understand the situtation. He'll start to move in, stop,
look around, take another step, and then I'll just grab him and put
him next to Marlo. One usually gets up soon and departs.

You're such a slave.
