...and how do I get all 4 of them up on my lap at the same time?
I don't know about a 4 cat household, but in a certain 2 cat household, this poses quite a problem. If Tubby is on my lap, Peanut won't come near. If Peanut is on my lap and Tubby walks up, Peanut's gone. Tubby was my first, and he knows it and lords it over her, and is very jealous of any attention I pay to her - although he has gotten much better about this as he has gotten older. On the very rare occassion, I will have Peanut on my lap and she won't notice Tubby walking up, so I can sneak him up, but I have to hold her down. Then I have pure bliss for about 2 seconds before she's had enough and takes off. Ah well, such is the life when you have a finicky little girl and a big bully boy in the house.
