Trish, Katmandu, my 'main-squeeze' gatita, a fiesty-intelligent-sweet-mama-tort, used to climb up to my work-bench and grab my pen in her mouth and run away; then turn and smile.. they can smile, alot of it is in the eyes. I have hundreds of really great stories of interaction with cats, have cared for about forty during my life thus far. Ever try to sleep with roughly 100lbs of cat and kitten trying sleep on top of you ? Concerts o' Purring ! Trish; continue as you are, loving; the main influence may be that your cat is sensing something external, as you suggested; listen to this and watch silently. P/L, D. .
well, there comes a particular time in everyone's life when they need their own skin and their own space. smart people know when that is and act accordingly. idiots force others to endure it with them.
one thing no one ever wants to do is startle me awake from a dead sleep. i'm sub-human and totally evil. it's like my frontal lobe is still completely shut down and i'm more likely to fuck something up in unadulterated rage, like my cat. therefore my poor cats don't get to sleep in the bedroom. i love them, they're my kittens, they shouldn't have to deal with my human hindbrain issues.
you are a psycho bitch...your ignore list sig is just too pathetic..oh my god...why would you think anyone gave a shit. you sat alone at the lunch tables for sure, that's why you have these issues.
I have a dogs head on my arm now as I type. She likes to rest on me. After awhile my arm hurts. Do you have any cat nip for her? That might keep her occupied for a bit.
