Oh crap. I just made eye contact with... the cat.
Plato, to be exact. He just jumped on my desk, and now that I've accidentally made eye contact, he's going to stare at me, sneak closer and closer, not let me touch him, put his paw on my mouse hand (which constitutes *him* touching *me*, which is OK), and generally be *there*.

It's an hour 'til the nightcap feeding. I'm screwn.

:P

1. Sounds like our cat, Bunny.
First, she is an absolute fruit fiend. Sit down with a peach, plum, watermelon, strawberry, etc. and she walks up, sits down very seriously and puts that "Paw of Incredible Significance I'm Telling You Something Here Buster" paw on your arm. Make eye contact and you're a goner.

Nice to have a place to post little stuff like that and have another cat person answer, ain't it? Ahhh, the internets.

3. "Paw of Incredible Significance"
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

He looks so serious when he does that, it's like the planet is on fire or something. Plus he won't let me trim his scimitars, so he stabs me every time he touches me. :D

2. LOL, so typical of those pesky cats. I find that if I just do some
loving on the cat, they decide to leave me alone for a while. NO LOVING without MY approval, says the cat!

5. Persistence goes two ways, love him to death. Or
you could just shake it up and feed him randomly. Screw with his head.

6. My cat french kissed me.
He has, in the past, rubbed his mouth against my hand, so that I can feel his gums and teeth.
Not a big deal, I've had plenty of cats do this.

This time, He lounged straight at my mouth with his.

full on the lips.

7. Plato will walk right up to me and
try to smell what I had to eat. He'll sit about an inch away. I blow very gently on his nose so he can get a sample for analysis, then he gives me a head butt and leaves.

He's very smart, but also very weird. :P

10. My cat does that!
I call it *fanging*. Hehehe... my Shelby has lovely long incisors so they always drag across my skin when he does it. I call him Fang the bowlegged wonder.

:loveya:
