    cat visitors

    I placed a bar stool next to my regular stool that I sit on during my using this computer. Apparently, the cats seem to like to sit next to me for some scritchies and attention. First it was Ophelia, and then Cookie, then Tiger, then Silver Prince, and now it is Princess -all of this action within the last hour. I guess I'd better leave it where it is so my furkids can take turns visiting me!

    AWWWWWW that sounds sooo sweet. I used to never get any peaceful computer time in once Tinky discovered the computer mouse..... she has now decided to let the mouse arrow alone but always comes up to get some luvin and make sure that my hands stay warm (by laying on them) now Jupiter has discovered THE COMPUTER SCREEN.... he could care less about just the mouse arrow he attackes scrolling words and still words the typed words the whole nine yards...... and don't let me forget to mention that he sits right smack dab in front of the screen.......

    Storm and Pepper have ignored my computer but Sunny will howl or do something bad to get my attention. He doesn't like it when I'm on the computer. Lately I've been picking him up and putting him on my lap. He loves it but wants to take up all the room so it's very difficult for me to type or use my mouse. He's also tried to catch moving objects on the computer and he's done his share of typing too.

    Last night I went to sign on after work. My tortie Mollie Rose was sitting in my computer chair.

    Did I move her??? Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I went and got another chair for me to sit on and moved the computer chair with MR in it, next to me. Talk about spoiled cats!!

    Whew! I thought I'd never get back on this site. I have been trying to re-access this site off and on all day. Somehow, my old password was no longer recognized by the central computer. Normally I'm talking early in the AM, but this morning I was shut out for some unknown reason. Needless to say I was getting very angry. Was about to write those in command that "if I have been cut off from the site, please let me know, so I won't be coming back" . But this is over now, I hope.

    Sara, my Ophelia does the same thing, she will sit in front of the screen and chase the arrow with her paw. She has been doing this for a few weeks now. Usually they outgrow this kind of curiosity, especially when the begin to realize that the arrow is not a tangible item!

    KAK, I remember having to get up to do something and when I returned the screen was full of "Zs'". And I mean full of them, many lines of Zs'. It took me several minutes to get the all ereased. apparnetly, what had happened is that one of my kittens laid on the "Z" button and filled the screen with them!

    Moosmom, what you did is natural for any conscientious cat lover. In fact I do the same courtesies here with my indoor menagerie. You can see why they rule the household.

    What is it with cats and computers?
    Wylie is the one who hangs around most.

    yorkster, I think it is due to the movement on the screen that excites their curiosity. But this is only a parital explanation because Silver Prince is becoming a regular patron to the pillow by the keyboard. In fact, he is sleeping on it now, and has been all day!

    Auggie, I really like your calico, and the view from the window is really great. It appears to be a rainy day, a perfect time to talk on the internet

    That is so sweet Wayne! All lined up to visit you in turns. LOL!
    Fister is laying next to John while he's working on the computer, the other day he had his head on the keyboard. I had to get a picture of that, will post it soon.

    I've got a wonderful mental picture of all your furbabies lining up to take their turn Wayne Cracks me up!

    Since I've taken to using the laptop it's made life a bit easier in that the Three Stooges can't take the whole desk - but Dan does like to lie on the whole thing on my lap!! That DOES make life a trifle difficult

    Great pic and lovely cat Auggie.
