Last night Connor did something similar. In the late afternoon I was getting ready to leave for a BBQ and I started hearing this (VERY) loud meow. I followed the noise just to make sure that no one was in a fight. I found Connor sittting in "my spot" on the sofa in the family room meowing at me to come and sit with him (which is usually how we spend our evenings ). I have to admit that I thought that was cute also
