My cat stands on me when I sleep.
When I go to sleep, sometimes I'll wake up and my cat will be standing over
me. If I sleep on my side, she stands on my arm. If I sleep on my back, she'll be on my chest. Kind of like "standing guard". I don't know why she would do this. I've had her for almost a week now. (she's 8 weeks old). Does this happen to anyone else? It's not a problem at all, I kind of take it as a compliment. Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience. Could this be a problem, or could she be trying to tell me something? I don't know. Thanks a lot!!!!!! -- Message posted via CatKB.com http://www.catkb.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx...ealth/200606/1 |

Could this be a problem, or could she be trying to tell me something? I don't know. Thanks a lot!!!!!! When my cat stands on me, it means one of two things: 1. If it's anywhere close to breakfast time, it's a request for me to get up and put food in her bowl. (She is sometimes an hour or even two hours early though so I just ignore her.) 2. If it's the middle of the night and she is purring, she wants to be stroked. She doesn't like being picked up at any time and only tolerates stroking when she is lying down WITHOUT being held. She is also very self-conscious about being stroked when the other cat in the house is around so she comes to me in the middle of the night when she wants to be stroked. She is not shy about waking me up for affection either! Perhaps that is what your kitten means too? -- Rhino |
