Tiger is very considerate!
Many cats, when they want to get on your lap will jump or leap on it.
Tiger knows he is big and heavy (25 pounds at his last vet visit). When he wants to get on my lap (which is often) he slowly gets on the arm of the sofa and very carefully eases himself into position. I am very thankful for this! ---MIKE--- |

I bet Tiger also has a hard time jumping up very high at all, if he is like my big cat. |

Believe it or not, Tiger can jump into the air when trying to get "Da
Bird". He also can climb right up the 46 inch high scratching post and get on the platform at the top. He just "looks" fat because his hair is so long. He is very strong. ---MIKE--- |

Ah, I see, then it really is just pure consideration. What a special boy. |

I got him from a shelter so I don't know his lineage but I suspect he is
a Maine Coon. ---MIKE--- |

Thank god someone else has a large cat! I've been worrying about my cat
Krispie, currently about 23lbs, and the size he is compared to other cats. thankfully he is not a lap person! he likes to have his own space but loves attention as well. He is quite big boned and strong, an outdoors cat but sleeps most of the day when indoors! He's very cuddly and is quite clean, quite a job to give himself a bath with the amount of surface area he has to cover! He's a very happy, healthy cat, 9 years old with no injuries or illnesses yet, long may it continue! |

LeMieux is 17 pounds since becoming diabetic (ought to be about 14.5 again, we're working on it). But he was such a long-bodied and long- legged cat even when he was slim, that he's not comfortable on laps. He does like to sneak into the bed a couple of hours before I get up, where I'm sleeping on my side, and curl up leaning against my back. Unfortunately, he snores loud enough to wake me up. lol When he visits on the bed when we're awake, he wants to be in the middle, but he's very careful about either jumping over one of us to get there, or walking down the side edge to the bottom and up the middle, rather than stepping on us. -- jamie ) "There's a seeker born every minute." |
