Lily is happy to learn that so many of you would enjoy to have her sitting on their laps! She's such a loving kitty and always friendly, so she couldn't understand why she was sent away.

I mean, even if my sister was tired to have another being on her lap after two hours with the baby, she could at least have petted her for a couple of minutes, and then make her jump down in a gentle way. But instead, she immediately raised her arms, blocked Lily that way and told her "Oh no Lily, I don't want you today". (btw, it's maybe two or three times a year that she comes here, so it's NOT that Lily is bugging her all the time).

I find that pretty rude. Like several others here, I'm not such a huge fan of babies (at least I do not feel the need to hold one, and I'm not one of the people who make a fuss about them), but if someone would give me a baby to hold it, I would take it because I think it would hurt the mother's feelings to see her child unwanted. It's a matter of respect, but there were several occasions this weekend where I felt my sister was acting disrespectful towards me.

Isn't it just sad how some people's personality change under the influence of their spouses?
