Guess who's in my lap right now?

Miss Holly the Wonder Cat, that's who! Is this going to become a regular thing? I can only hope!

I think she was sleeping until I started petting her; now she's purring.

It's going to be a great day.

1. How lovely for you and for her!

2. Thank you, 3catwoman3

This is the second time in 14 1/2 years she's laid in my lap! The first time was last week.

3. I saw that post and have been hoping it was not a one off.

We have 4 cats - unrelated 14 yr olds, and 3 yr old brother and sister Siamese mix. 3 of the 4 purr readily, and the least provocation. The male Siamese purrs even if you just speak to him.

His sister, who loves to sit on my lap, purrs for my husband, but rarely for me. I have no idea why. I try not to be jealous, but am not totally succeeding.

We sleep in separate rooms because hubby has sleep apnea and wakes up several times a night. If the sister kitty curls up on my husband's bed during the day and I go in there to pet her, she will purr for me when she is on his bed. She'll purr for him if she's on mine.

4. Awwwww, so happy for you and Holly. May this be just the beginning

of many cuddle/purr moments!
