Work Interrupted

Sometimes, the furry household residents make it very difficult to get any work done. (Nevermind that the "work" visible on my computer monitor is Facebook.)





My new desk has all sorts of hidey-hole aspects to it, so the cats are attracted to it like catnip. And while one is in the desk, the other has to be on my lap. Then they do the Kitty Switch, which is what we call it when the cats respond suddenly to some invisible and/or silent cue that only they can see/hear. They just both stand up and switch places, whether it's a lap, a bed, the desk...

Have I ever mentioned that cats are weird?

your cats are totally wierd - kitty switch - that must be some kind of bond they have!

For some reason your boys looked much bigger in other pictures - maybe the angle is different here, but they look so tiny!

My Jack does that, too - it is a "caving" instint of dogs, I think. If I sit at a desk or a countertop, he will twist and turn to sqeeze in that small space between my knees and the wall.

Too cute! My boys seem to take turns on my lap when I'm on the computer on my days off. Charlie gets the morning shift and Mr. Darcy get the afternoon shift! ;)
