My First Headbumpies!!
Okay, I admit that when I have read about headbumpies on this board, I have been extremely jealous because I have never received one from my kitty. He's a sweetie-pie, and he purrs when he's on my lap, gives me "eye kisses" (that squinty-eyed look), rubs my legs when he's getting fed, but never a headbumpie. Well, this morning when I sat down to check in on Pet Talk, he did his usual routine of leaping from the floor to the top of the computer chair (it's one of those taller ones). Generally he then walks down my chest onto my lap, but today he just stayed on top of the chair. Then, I felt him rubbing against me, so I looked up to see if maybe he had lost his balance or something, but he was deliberately rubbing his head against mine, and did it several times, while purring and giving me the eye kisses. I WAS IN HEAVEN! It's probably the first and last time he'll do it, but at least now I can die happy.
Sigh........kitties are so wonderful..............
