Cat complications

Cat is lying on my back as I type. Am not quite sure how we got into this position but it has disabled the use of my left arm. Is like a demented game of Twister. Am typing hunt and peck with right hand only as have not the heart to displace him. Am v. weak.

Cat has runny eyes and nose today. Cat also has prepaid, nonrefundable shelter appointment tomorrow for shots/neutering. Bad timing. Since I was not sure if I should take him in under circumstances, I phoned and explained. They said bring him, will examine outdoors and decide if ok to bring inside.

Do you think cat planned symptoms as way to get out of appointment? He really is v. clever.

Cats *are* very clever - you will soon learn the lengths to which they're willing to go to do what they want/avoiding doing what they don't want/make you do what they want... :P

But he has such a sweet face... hard to resist.

Exactly! All part of a cat's cunning - to have an irresistible face!

:D You have no idea how often I am typing with only one hand because of a cat. Sometimes I have a cat on my chest while my laptop is precariously balanced against my knees, and I have to strain my neck to actually see the screen over the cat's body. It's amazing how quickly a cat can incapacitate you just by getting comfortable and purring, isn't it?

Jack has learned not to step on my keyboard, but that does not stop him from stepping over it or rubbing against it or climbing on me as I use the computer. I don't have the heart not to let him. He looks at me with those big eyes, and that does it.
