My sweet green-eyed baby girl
When precious Lily (a.k.a. Lily-pad) really wants attention, she will crawl
so stealthily into your lap that you almost don't notice she is even there, and then she will start licking your hand. If you pet her with the other hand, she will continue licking, and every few seconds stop for a moment to look into your eyes and say "ma" (pronounced like "mad" or "man" with the last letter removed). |

When I am sitting at the computer, sometimes Kenzie manages to stealthily *jump* up into my lap. She puts her paws on the edge of the chair, and makes a very careful leap, so land with zero velocity. Suddenly, I have a cat in my lap! Kenzie doesn't often seek attention; she usually gets plenty without having to ask for it. But if I spend too long at the 'puter, there she will be. This past year, she has been getting more affectionate. One trick I pull on her is when I come home, and instead of scooping her up for scritches, I ignore her little merrps! while I settle in for the evening. When I sit down to watch some TV, Kenzie will jump up into my lap then. Considering it took me *two years* to convince her it was OK to get up on the sofa, it's a real treat having her in my lap. A full hour is rather rare, unfortunately. But a few weeks ago, she stayed in my lap for a 3 hour movie! How I miss my 2 RB kitties, who were consumate lap fungi. Sigh.... ~~~~~~~~ Life without cats would be only marginally worth living. TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie.

She sounds like a real sweetheart! Persia has always been a cuddle-bug but even more so these days. Jill |

She is so cute! You have many adorable babies in your household. This reminded me of one poster who wrote on RPCA nine years ago that he had a cat who would "stalk" his lap like prey, so that she could get on without him noticing. http://groups.google.com/group/rec.p...30e1a61bd32185 |

I was sitting in my comfy chair tonight watching a dvd, when Nina came and sat in my lap to keep me company. She doesn't do this all that often, and never stays very long, but it's very sweet and companionable when she's there. Francesca will pay me the same compliment sometimes, but even more rarely than Nina does it. She prefers to lie on my upper abdomen and chest when I'm reclinining in the chair, and expects a steady stream of scritching, ear and under the chin rubbing, alternated with full body caresses. But she purrs very nicely when I do this. =o) Melissa |
