My cat Holly - UPDATE [View all]

Whenever I sit on the couch with my laptop, she insists upon walking across it, sometimes back and forth repeatedly. She hits the keys, causing gibberish to be typed into my messages or else hits keys that change the look of my screen or keyboard which causes me to panic when I can't figure out how she did it and how to fix it. No matter how many times I tell her not to, she defiantly continues to do it. Then she triumphantly saunters away, as if to say "My work here is done."

This is the same cat who can't stand the sight of a pen sitting anywhere. She will send that offensive pen flying faster than a puck at a hockey game.

Cats - you gotta love them. They each have their own personalities and idiosync=r[[[[[[[[[[[tfrr566666666 (obviously she just did it again) idiosyncrasies. Looks like someone wants my undivided attention and I think she should get it. Ta ta for now.

Edited to add: As soon as I stopped typing and started petting her and giving her scritches, she got bored with it and went who-knows-where to get away from me. Figures.
