Do your cat (or dog/ferret/animal) sit on your lap as you type? :o)  |
| |
| How many of you have the luxury of your dear cat (or dog/ferret/animal) sitting on your lap as you type. Yup, she's on my lap right now. Yay! But doesn't stay for a long time at all. Doesn't happen every day, but it always makes me all warm and contented. Of course, I have a sticky roller right in the room to pick up and get the hair off before I step out. ;o) Also, in my desk drawer (on which my computer is right now), to my right side this year, I decided to keep the fur comb. I try to comb her (and she loves it). Otherwise, I will be blinking away fur all over my face, chest, and my keyboard is even "coughing" on it. My cat especially likes it when I turn the mini heater on. She just loves warmth even when it is warm. So how many of you have the honor of your beloved pet sitting on your lap? My kitty actually only started doing that about a year ago. (She's 6 years old now.) | | | | | |

| | My kitties tend to perch on the pillows on my chair behind me, they also sometimes sleep on my bed pillows with me at night. | | | | | | |

| | Cute. Yes, when she is not sitting on my lap, she is usually perched, happily asleep on her special higher height bed that makes her taller than me in my room. :o) It's right by my door, so that whenever I pass in or out, she knows I see her, and anybody who pops in can't miss her. Sleeping on a bed pillow with you at night would be a dream! ;o) In the very occasional nights that she will come onto my bed, it is usually at the foot. | | | |

| | I don't have a lot of lap right now, however, I try to keep the cats out of my space where the computer is. | | | | | | |

| | That is probably wise, to keep the vents and computer parts, keyboard, etc. safer. But she doesn't do it often. What's so cute is that when somebody else is coming up the stairs to pamper her and give her some hugs and kisses, she happily meows to them, may lick them, but then looks at me, thinking, "Don't get jealous!" She often comes then to my desk, hops on, rubs across, cuddles, and then goes back to her perch. :o) | | | |

| | Our cats too.They loved being cuddled.Their favorite place to sleep is actually in my brother's office chair inside the study room.And guess what my brother hates it.Every time the cats hear my brothers foot steps, they kind of jump and run faster afraid of getting scolded again. | | | | | | |

| | Cute, but poor guys having to scoot when a person comes. Maybe they would like a similar texture bed in the same room (that doesn't have a human bum take over!). ;o) My cat used to always sprawl over (mostly before she came to my lap) on top of my keyboard, which was sweet, but quite bothersome as she would even sometimes shut down my computer, or kick me offline or in the middle of an email or such. Cuddle them silly! | | | |

| | If my cat Alaska is awake when I take a seat in the desktop computer chair, he immediately runs up to and jumps into my lap, and he just curls up in my lap and purrs away,,,,I like it sometimes when I'm posting on mylot because the sound of his purrs are calming | | | | | | |

| | Awww, and looks like such a cutie (assuming your ginger/white pic on the left is Alaska). :o) Maybe you should set a video camera some time in your room to catch it. Would be so cute. Ooh, and maybe play it to see if she recognizes the scene. ;o) How sweet. And yes, purring is very calming. Before I adopted a cat, as a child, my parents wanted to, and I thought they were these icky little creatures witih these weird rattling noises (purrs). Then, I fell in love when we adopted! :o) | | | |

| | Wow! 14 pets! How do you ever afford to feed and vet them all! Are they all inside pets or do they mostly live outside? | | | |

| | LOL yeah that's a lot but not by our choice though but we couldn't not take them in. 4 of our cats are strays and one of our dogs was given to us. How do we afford them? We give them their shots except for their rabies which has to be done by a licensed veterinarian. The dogs heartworm protection and all of their (cats too) frontline I get online at vetshop.com. Their food, we know where it's cheap so we buy it there which is different places. That's how. LMBO BTW, Welcome to mylot!! | | | |

| | Hee hee. I'm a lucky one with this. She's so nice to me and never sticks her claws out when I move. It's so cute. She trusts me like her back legs. Sometiems when I am sitting near a window (that she often just jumps up tobird watch), but on lovable days, she jumps onto a platform on my rightside (to be level with me), comes onto my lap for a second or two, and then puts her paw out for me to place my hand for her to step on. I do of course, and then, the knows the next hand will be there. she steps onto the window sill, automatically knowing that her back legs are safe to step onto my my ready hands, her stepping stones! (If you can imagine that.) | | | |

| | Oh Loen! You're so kind to your fur babies!! That's so sweet of you!! We need more people like you around, maybe more and more would learn to be so loving and caring like you are!! | | | |

| | Naww.. Thanks for your sweet comment. :o) But you sound like you have one of teh biggest responsibilities out there! Another of my cats isn't a me-person. She bonds usually only with another family member (not sure why), but tends to be very attracted to male humans, instead of females! Really! Like even when we have guests over, if she's not hiding adn burrowed away, she only goes to the males, usually. | | | |

| | Yes. I hold my hamster sometimes while I type. He sits on my shoulder every now and then too. I used to hold my dog and type also but it is too hard since he has grown. | | | | | | |

| | Aw, how cute. That must keep you smiling with him on your shoulder. Guess what? She also climbs onto my shoulders at times, even since she's gotten big, though not as often. And drapes around my neck, but I have to hold up her dangling legs with one hand, and it does make it much harder to type with only one hand, but it's so sweet! :o) For your dog, you'll have to put some kind of bed platforum that he can put half of his body onto (the other onto your lap!). ;o) | | | |

| | :o) Yes. And oh yeah, that's what those rollers are called! (Lint rollers). I always forget. But we always tock up on them from COSTCO, since we need them all the time. I wish they were refillable (at least the batches we get from COSTCO). I do probably need to learn how to clean out the computer system and keyboard, as I know fur always stocks up in cracks adn vents. | | | |

| | We only have a dog now and he's too small to jump on my lap. He would sit here while I was on the computer but I don't encourage it. He's not fond of being up this high off the ground. Had to have our cat put to sleep last January. She would always jump on my lap as I typed on the computer. She kept me warm. Sure do miss her but she was a sick kitty. | | | | | | |

| | Oh, Carolbee, Sending you warm thoughts and happy memories over to you for your dear cat who passed away. For your little one (dog), you'll just have to get a laptop and start typing, lying on the carpet/floor she she can cuddle with you then! (J/K). ;o) | | | |

| | My dogs take turns sitting in the "dog spot" on my lap. I sit on the right-hand side of the couch with my computer on the arm rest. The "dog spot" is on my left side tucked kind of under my arm sitting with their front legs on my left leg. Sometimes I'll have both of them on my lap. One of them likes to sit on an ottoman pushed right up against the couch--half on my legs, half on the ottoman. Occasionally one of my cats will curl up in my lap also. I love it! By the way, my dogs are not tiny. One is a Sheltie mix and the other is a "Bullapso" (Bull Dog/Lhasa Apso mix. Think Bull Dog body, Lhasa Apso fur). | | | | | | |

| | Stella, she's not mental. ;o) She of course wants lots of attention and love. I know about making it hard if they jump onto your keyboard though! Thx for posting. | | | |
