        Kindly explain to me why the cat that doesn’t want a lot of love and attention picks the times I am sitting at the desk working to jump on to my lap and demand love and affection?

          They're cats. They plan this stuff for days before execution.

          “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

          Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

            They have an innate sense of what will inconvenience you.

              She played and snuggled for 15 minutes, then napped on my lap for 20-30 minutes…

                Is the cat a female?

                  Pistachio earned her keep last night! Finley was taking his dishes into the kitchen last night and hollers “What’s that?” Over by Magneto’s food bowl is a tiny mouse sniffing around, bold as can be. The two cats are over in the corner just lounging… I’m a little ticked at the cats at this point… It’s right there…

                  So I get a box and a dust pan, but the mouse gets away. A couple of hours later, I am getting ready to feed the cats their evening meal, and Jerry’s over by Pistachio’s bowl, brave as can be. Pistachio was following me with the food, saw the mouse, and snatched it up, Karla immediately snatched Pistachio up, we took her outside and got her to let go of the mouse who took off.

                  After that, Pistachio was a wild kitty. She was like “I’ve never felt so alive!” And spent the next two hours zooming and stalking everything in the house.

                    @LuFins-Dad 😄

                    We clearly feed them too much as they just want to play with them while I want them to kill it immediately.

                          Funny. But score one for auto-correct on that one.

                            Nobody warned me what effect the cats would have on my schedule. Every frigging time that I decide to get up and move on to the next part of my day is exactly when they jump into my lap.

                              FFS. Got to bed late last night, packing for our getaway. At 3 frigging AM I wake up to a howling outside the bedroom door, the bangs as a cat starts throwing himself against the door. I go out to the hall and Magneto (the cat that’s normally a little stand offish is purring and acting Ike he’s starved for attention. I take him downstairs and pet him while watching MSTK 3000. The show ends, I get up to go back to bed and he starts getting upset… I wound up having to sleep on the couch with the cat crawled up next to me.

                                Ok, so why? Our cats know what the suitcases mean. Do yours?
