Hmm. You seem to have met Cheeto (photo to left). He curls up on my pillow then lightly hooks just one claw into my face to remind me that 16 pounds is far too light for him and he really needs food. Needless to say, I try really hard to remember to give him his paw-dicure.
This comic, and last night’s too, made me laugh so hard. I usually zoom my tablet so as to see only one or two frames at a time. That way I don’t accidentally see the punchline ahead of time. By the time I got to the last frame I was laughing like an idiot. I was telling my wife how funny these guys are. She said, “You know they’re not real, right?” Silly girl.
From what appears to me to be the cat’s point of view; they feel that they own any item such as a couch, pillow, chair, bed, computer desk, ottoman, etc which they like to sleep or relax on as they usually spend more time on them than the humans and possession is 9/10s of the law. When us humans use them, felines take the attitude that they are granting us a privilege which can be revoked by them at any time. Looks like Elvis feels that 3 is a crowd and that The Man is the “odd man out” therefore he can not get too comfortable and needs a friendly reminder of who is boss…..
Albert A. Cat will not come up to the bedroom and sleep with us, so he does his best to make us fall asleep on the daybed in his room. He likes to sleep in the crook of my arm with his head on my shoulder.
While we do have daytime naps together, I unfortunately had to banish all cats (five of them at that time) from the bedroom at night years ago. This was after Blackie Jane, the “watch cat”, who slept in the cat hammock attached to the windowsill, became extraordinarily frightened by someone or some thing approaching the house in the middle of the night. Blackie screeched like a mountain lion, exploded from behind the blinds and disappeared off into the hall, scattering the other cats. Tigger, who slept plastered to my side under the covers, ran for his life, right across my face. I was left sitting up in bed with blood dripping off my chin, wondering WTH just happened. After I figured it out, and realized it could have been my eyes instead of my chin, no more kitties in the bedroom. Of course there are occasional exceptions if someone is sick or seems to really need Mom’s company, but today’s clowder is an entirely new generation so they don’t expect to sleep in the bedroom anyway.

Studies show a siamese should be exposed to certain kinds of gas. Though I be the Man would then be sleeping on the couch for a week for that gas attack.
I’ve been a little bit feverish off and on since getting my vaccine yesterday. I wonder if this is why Saxon is demanding cuddles? His human mattress is even warmer than usual.
I usually have one cat on each side of my head and they leave me alone, except the one big floofball, a bit Maine Coonish, will sometimes bump heads and purr if he needs extra hard snuggles.
Generally though they stay still, so they don’t attract attention from the dogs by my feet!

Some folks may remember Lupin does this as well! It often comes down to whomever gets there first (usually Lupin).

Somehow, I never thought I would hear the phrase “chinny chin” from Elvis. Or watch him smiling while he said it.

Especially startling is the extended paw stretched into your face. You open you eyes to see claws, claws, claws.

No sane pet or stuffed plushy would sleep with me. I don’t roll around, but I do stay awake for hours before I can fall asleep.
