Watch out for that cat-in-the-lap. It can be painful. My old "used to
be" tomcat (aptly named Streak) jumped up in my lap the other day,
misjudged the distance and skidded off. Unfortunately he extended his
claws (which found purchase in the side of my quads) to keep from
falling. He apparently has learned magic as he now responds quickly and
vanishes any time I holler ...OUCH!
BTW, said cat weighs about 17-18# and is all muscle.
http://www.rogerhalstead.com/Streak3.htm He's grown a bit since this
photo was shot of him guarding the Alpha. When he wants out he stand on
his hind feet and grabs the doorknob, but can't turn it. My wife put
her foot down when she caught me showing him how to open the screen doors.
