Trapped...

[Veronica]

Tucker Cat jumped in my lap, snuggled for awhile and has now fallen asleep on my left arm. Sorry... can't reach the camera. And Thom wonders why I get nothing done on vacation.

What a sweet way to get trapped! Sounds like Tucker Cat certainly knows how to take advantage of the situation

My new kitty, Jaguar, is the most cuddly kitty I have ever owned. Just a few weeks ago, I discovered he loves to sleep under the covers when he starts to get cold. He starts out on the bad, then when he wants to come under, he taps me on the face gently and I lift the covers and under he slips, to sleep the rest of the night. If you hug him tight, he likes it even more! Then, I get up make coffee, go to the computer and up he jumps to curl on my lap; and then I go to watch the news and weather on the couch and finish my first cup of coffee and up he comes to sleep on my lap till I put him in his chair.

He is sooooo sweet! It does make it hard to get anything done!

He's still snoozing... He's so warm!

My kitty does the same thing. He gently paws as the covers. If I ignore him he gets a little more insistent that he come under the covers, pawing harder, even pushing his little face under the edges until he finds an opening. In my case he gets hot or irritated if I shift and leaves, only to repeat the process in an hour. As sweet as it is at first, the third time being woken up, it stops being sweet tho even then I can't refuse him. The tickle of little whiskers on my face and the sound of his purrrrrr in the quiet darkness just melt away any annoyance or anger.

This is making me so jealous. I've been catless for too long now, since my last one lost his battle with cancer. I think I'm due to start checking the shelters for the one(s) that call out to me.

My one cat (not the avatar one) used to sleep under the covers all the time, or partly under them with her head on the pillow. She was always so warm that in the colder months, it made it really hard to get up and start my day!

I guess that *somebody* is trying to tell you to relax and chill out today.

Cassie Cat's turn - she won't stay as long. She's not so into laps. But she'll sleep all night on my ankles.

awww A cat in your lap is good for the soul.

I've had kitty on my lap vs notebook computer for a couple of days now - every evening. I did pull the heating pad out for my kitty that's suffering from his arthritis and cancer - he now chooses to lie on that, but he still comes over for lap time, and tries to lie on top of my hands.

somewhere I have a photo that dh took during the summer. I am asleep on the bed, lying on my back. One cat is curled up on my chest, another (the big maine coon- 22 pounds) is asleep, draped across my thighs while the youngest is curled up against my ankles. Lately miss Ike, the baby has taken to sleeping under the blankets with us, cruled up against my knees, at night.

Gaffer (aka Emo Cat) is asleep on my lap as I type. He has a sore paw at the moment so is feeling even more smoochy than usual and sorry for himself. We have three cats. Our elderly female Burmese insists on being let under the duvet to sleep on my right side. Gaffer sleeps curled up against my chest on the right. Our little moggy usually sleeps on either my or my husband's feet. We definitely need a king-sized bed!

It's amazing how a cat on your lap can bring your whole day to a halt! It completely defies the laws of physics the way a 10 pound cat can pin you down.

Houston (We Have a Problem), our boycat, like to sleep under the covers, too. Mostly he's warm and cuddly, but occasionally he likes to knead me and he's very bad with his claws. I have no idea how he breathes under the blanket and down comforter. I guess he's a facultative anaerobe...
