Pet Radar
Sometimes I think my cats have radar for when I would find their presence the biggest nuisance. I know this is not true, it is probably that they are feeling neglected and decide that it is time that they had some attention. For instance, in order to write this post, I had to evict one of my cats from my arms. I was getting ready to start this post (which was going to be on something else) when my cat jumped up on my computer (the tower kind that sits next to my chair) and crawled into my lap. As I write this, the cat that I put down is back up on the computer waiting for me to give in and pick her up again.
One of the things that is most annoying (and upsetting) is my cats’ ability to block my path. I don’t know how many times I have stepped back (something I should know better than to do in this house) and tromped on a cat. And of course there is the ever popular cat move of running a few steps ahead and stopping to look back to make sure you are still headed in the same direction, thereby blocking your path. This move is especially effective (and dangerous) on stairs. Now, admittedly, this is just because they love me and want to be with me, but it is still frustrating.
I’m sure all of you with pets have similar tales. A guess it means that our pets love us.
