Why work when you can smothered by a cat instead? Or have his claws in your neck because he needs skin contact. This animal is a lot.

I've taken to wearing a hoodie backwards when I'm studying at home. Put the smothering cat in the hood. Keeps the cat happy and off my workspace. And snuggles. Many snuggles.

Have you tried putting the JR in there?

I don't think she'd like it, but I'll try tomorrow, just for research purposes. I know I'll end up with kisses ๐Ÿ’‹

That's so cute! I couldn't do that with this demon, he's way too big! But I like the idea!

oh Punkin was a 6kg ginger tom. Cats find a way.

Foxy is 5.5kg now. But he fits!

corner desk here, he used to sprawl on one arm while I had the other. Or sit in the box specifically there for feline purposes. Or sit in my lap.

Can't be bothered setting up your RGB for your Corsair keyboard on your work machine? I can relate.

Iโ€™m unironically suggesting a baby sling. He gets held while you have your arms free.

Iโ€™d do it with the Melbcat but am not strong enough to wear her without injury.
