My old cat… Jill… has NEVER been one to sit in your lap… or be too close…
She does LOVE me!… and has slept above my head numerous times at night…
but…
lately…
she has either decided cuddling is not such a bad thing or she loves the quilt I put over me when I sit on the couch at night…
This is what I get every time for the last couple of weeks… when I lay down on the couch to watch TV or nap…
She makes her way upon me…
turns several times… kneading the cover with her paws to make it even softer…
the settling thing that cats do…
Stretches her paws… washes her face by licking her paw and rubbing her face and ears…
stretches out her toes showing her nails…
and looks me right in the face!…
I pet and rub her until she finally gives that sigh of sleepiness and contentment…
Whatever it is…
old age… (she’s 15)…
the quilt… (old and soft)… and probably has my scent…
listening to my heart beating under her ear…
or it’s so nice and warm with the weather changing…
She has definitely been UP CLOSE and Personal lately!
It is so much nicer cuddling under the blanket with your best friend
What a sweet and dainty kitty! My boys are big boy cats…she is so pretty!
Actually she is pretty big…but, from my angle made her look small…she is my Baby Jill!
