    Is there an animal on your lap?

    Whenever I am at the computer there is always an animal in my lap. Right now it is Ripley, but Andy and Trevor too take turns sitting in my lap when I am at the computer. Sometimes there might even be a combination of two trying for lap space, but unfortunately I only have room for one. I never really gave it a second thought until my husband was mentioning the other day that the furkids are so spoiled that they are even in my lap when I am typing. I am wondering how unusual is that? Am I the only one?

    I usually ALWAYS have one or both of my little Ratties out with me. Except for now because they don't want to come out because they're getting their beauty sleep... Not that they ever need it

    So, no worries, you surely are not the only one!

    Funny you should ask, Pam. Annie just jumped down from my lap. It is a morning ritual to have Rascal on my lap too. He is a big boy, so typing is out of the question. I just sit and read when he is on my lap.

    And here comes Annie again...........

    Popped in for a quick look and here comes Edwina. She sits on my lap much of the time I am on the computer. Of course she expects her ears rubbed which means one handed typing! Eddie walks on the desk and talks to me but he isn't a lap sitter yet!

    The come up by jumping on the back of my chair (pointing out my very poor posture -- sitting on the edge of the chair.) Sometimes when I am deep in concentration it is a start!

    Mickey is a bit big for my lap but he usually comes around me when I'm on the computer. He'll pass by and let me know he's here (usually wants a quick scratch) and then either wanders off somewhere else or lays by me and falls asleep.

    Well, both my pups are just a little bit too big to sit in my lap unless I'm on the couch.

    Moose will usually come over and plop his head right in my lap though. Zoey normally just plops down next to the chair.

    I use a laptop, so no room for anyone to get in my lap, but Abbey sure does try!!!
    She starts with one paw on the keyboard, then licks my hands, then sneaks her other paw up, and before I know it, she's right next to me on the couch.

    Popcorn's on my shoulder right now, and Muffin's on my lap. They're always with me when I'm at the computer.........either *on* me, or on the desk.

    Molly's in my lap....sort of. She thinks she can fit, but in reality she's a 70 some pound beast. Daisy's under the computer desk, sound asleep.

    No lap-pets here! If I was at my mom's, Charlie *might* be, but he's still a little scared of people, unless I have treats! But when I go over there tonight, I'll tell ya!

    Megan LOVES to be on my lap or just being anywhere where I am. Right now she's sleeping on the floor near me. When I let Ilio (my cat) in my room, he likes to be on my lap too.
