Snow Falcon
Hoping for drier days
..every time I sit down to do some work (of which I have a lot to do the next fortnight) its like he knows. Plonks himself all over my lap thus making it really difficult to type-well virtually impossible.
I love my cat but....

Mine used to like to sit on my laptop so I couldn't see the screen or type. Very effective.

Well it is, of course, his laptop. You might be allowed to share it sometimes.

Jealous! My last cat was a lap sitter, and my current two couldn’t care less - it’s very sad!

I love lap sitters, he's a funny one. Picks and chooses his times well. Usually when I need to move or work?.
I got another cat once because the boys only came in to eat.

This.
All my previous cats have loved laps to the point of being complete PITAs ... (one handed typing, one handed eating, one handed phone answering ... you get the picture.)
My current 2? Both Bengals and although utterly enchanting (and mad and loving and funny) they are NOT lap cats.
I miss lap cuddles terribly ...

I have recently been re-educating a friends cat to the unbelievable (from a cat point of view) idea that prancing onto an office table is not a career move.

He's a rescue, so I suppose that's understandable.
He's just arrived to demand luncheon: Now.
I'm off to fulfil the order.

Hmm. You do realise that the table belongs to the cat, don't you? As does everything else the light touches ...

Mine is on and off my desk for hours on end as though she's attached to it by a piece of elastic.
If she's not on the desk she's on my lap. Or lying along the back of my chair. As soon as I get out of the chair, she's on it, and has an uncanny knack for curling up on it, pretending to be so comfy and fast asleep that I couldn't possibly move her, in the time it takes to grab a cuppa from an already boiled kettle.

My ragdoll always comes in for a smooch (my lying on the bed, her on my chest) at the worst possible times, usually just as I'm about to get ready for work, or get up!

One of ours sits in the gap between me and my latop. As long as I have my hands at the keyboard in advance I can still type, more or less, as long as I don't mind her lying across my arms... The other, who's a bit more picky about her lap situations, will crouch in the kitchen during fireworks and thunder, and if you crouch down next to her she'll crawl onto your lap when it's horizontal and cling on. You can then sit on the floor if you can get your legs out from under you, or move around the place cossack-style. She used to be very anti-human so it's strange she's decided we're her best bet when she's really stressed.

Also why do ragdolls choose the minute you're serving up dinner to pump out a massive dump in the tray??

My 2 are 'snugglers' only, neither are lap cats. And interestingly 1 only on sofa (as photo) and the other only on the bed....They have their own territories

Not work related but was drinking my coffee outside a cafe…
I do not know this cat.
This cat does not know me.
Never saw it approach, just jumped up and flattened me. Big and heavy. I suspect I was easy prey ?
