eighteen pound Siamese kitty Maxwell is insisting on lap time....
Edited on Thu Jul-15-04 07:02 PM by mike_c
Heaving his hugeness up onto the desk caused papers and CDs to scatter. Now he's batting/nibbling on my fingers whenever I stop petting him to type. He's one of my hand raised kittens, and he absolutely lives for human contact.

xoxo
Mike "love slave" C.

on edit: he's not fat-- he's just big boned.... (Actually true-- he's a BIG boy).

3. I have a twenty pounder!
He found us when he was a kitten, and has always been loved and adored. Now he is a big huge 20 pound kitten with long hair and huge paws. He still thinks he is a lap kitten, and well I guess I can't disagree. Every time he wants in my lap, I've got to pick him up.

:hippie:

5. Ok, hope this works!
In the first one, he might not yet be 20lbs. The second one is the most recent photo I have of him. Unfortunately, you can't see much of him. I haven't been taking many pictures in the last 10 years.


He is a really snuggler. He loves to have his face kissed. He also likes to sleep right next to my face. Poor guy has asthma and hip problems. It is really strange, because I had my hip broken 30 years ago, so also have pain walking just like him. I also have asthma, so when he suffers, I'm suffering as well.

6. Since we're talking about our kitties
I have a Freak Cat. She has these HUGE eyes that look really scary. She walks up and says MEOW!! MEOW!! in almost a human voice. She is demanding to have "some scratchin's" as we call it. So you scratch her and her freaky eyes roll back in her head and her tongue sticks out and when you are done, you have enough fur in your hand to make a new cat.

She sleeps curled up in my armpit each night.
