Can this be done?

When I adopted my kitten, I knew my life would change. But, because I did not know his temperament or level of neediness, I had no idea how much my life would change. And I'm here hoping that he won't lunge onto the keyboard, as he has so many other times, and wipe away everything I'm trying to write!
He wants to be with me all the time. He wants to be on top of me or next to me. If I'm reading, he's on top of my book. If I'm online...he's on the keyboard. I've learned to correct a sideways monitor more times than I can count anymore! No clue how he does it!
I was trying to chat with my niece the other night online and Timothy typed more than I did. My niece kept laughing because she knew when it was him and not me. I finally had to give up and called her. But even then he tried to sit on the phone!
Tonight, in order to eat my dinner by myself, I had to put him in his crate. So I had baby mews in the background as I ate. Not the best dinner music. But the only way I could eat without his head remaining in my bowl!
Hope you're all doing well. I laugh most of the time these days because of him. I don't sleep well because he loves waking me up to play. But it's a life I can definitely live. It was a great decision. I'm just not allowed to type here much anymore!
uh oh....here he comes!!!!

He sounds like a lively kitty! Maybe he was just what the doctor ordered!

I think so, although I have to shut off the computer so much more than I really want to. He's only 3 months old but very demanding already"$%55555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555555rxz (as you can see here)

It's very new and he's been the best medicine for me. I know he's happy to have been adopted. He always looked so sad at the shelter (then again, they all do). I still miss Ruby and Timothy reminds me that it's all about us helping each other!

I dont allow my cat to do that I tell him no and put him by my foot for a good foot rubbing or I give him toys to play with.

He doesn't understand "no" yet. I do say "no" and put him down and sometimes he'll grab onto one of his toys. Other times, he's insistent on being up here in my face. So I close the computer and snuggle him. He's only 3 months old so he has a lot of learning to do! :)

They do love us and want to be a part of it all. It's so funny when I was living with my ex we would quite often go for a walk in the evenings. At some point we would look back the way we had come. Following us down the sidewalk would be two cats and a dog. So funny!

He is just learning how to push your buttons @CRK109
Hope he continues to make your days brighter.

If you think a cat on your keyboard is bad, try an 80 pound lab!

I'm sure Timothy is giving you plenty of love and keeping you busy. Kittens are hysterical and want to hog all your attention. I don't have any cats anymore but I do remember how they loved to be on top of everything

He's a funny little guy and he is beginning to make these very high pitched chirping sounds. So adorable!
