and there are things I need to do but cannot possibly. Please send cat photos to reassure me that this is normal.

Here's my tyrant right now:

I'm currently under one too. DH is cooking dinner because I can't move!

@AwkwardPaws27 had to do a double take, there's a missing cat near me that has almost identical markings as yours considering they're so distinctive in the first place!

Can confirm my cat loves nothing more than making herself comfy as soon as I need to get up to do stuff too!

The other night I was in bed asleep with the pillow over my head (because crazy cat kept jumping on our headboard, but kept falling off and landing in my face).

Non-crazy cat decided to lie on the pillow-over-my-head and go to sleep.

I was torn between suffocating to death and moving the cute sleeping cat.

Not so Little!

Mine's also a Captain of Camouflage. You'll understand that I couldn't make the bed Grin

I feel everyone's pain. This was my afternoon today. My cat is very strongly of the opinion that the only justifiable reason I could have to evict her is to feed her... so when chucked off she immediately runs to her bowl and is then appalled and betrayed when instead I have the nerve to go to the loo instead or make myself a cup of tea.

I often get trapped.

I won't show you but earlier today I was stuck on the loo as my "not a lap cat" decided that was the moment! He wanted to BE A LAP CAT

I mean I sat and cuddled for awhile what else can you do

Fozzleyplum · 24/10/2021 23:06

Trapped in bed and on the sofa. There is no escape.

Now that’s the type of cat everyone needs! You’ve obviously trained each other well 😂

Hopefully they resume their position when it’s time to wash up too?!

@Dilbertian

DH, Mr IDon'tWantACatIDon'tLikeCats IWon'tHaveAnythingToDoWithIt, is worse than me for getting trapped under dcat. For one thing, he is a complete soppy-socks who has fallen utterly in love with dcat, for another dbastardcat prefers his lap. When dh sits down in the living room dbloodycat gets up and walks off my lap straight onto dh's!
Mine's like this, she loves strangers and men.

My carer sits down and she is on his knee.

When my dad visits he will spend 90% of the visit under the cat. She has even been known to climb on his knee when he is sitting at the table.

It's funny, I thought he was very unusual too, but there is a fluffier version of him living round the corner - right down to the white stripe down his back.

MrsCatE · 25/10/2021 18:51

I think @Grumpyoldpersonwithcats DW wins the thread!

DontKeepTheFaith · 04/11/2021 15:39

We’ve had our cat for 8 days, she is a 4 year old rescue cat, this was the first time she settled on my lap. I felt truly honoured😍😍

My current view. At least she’s not a farty cat.

Had this for 2.5 hours last weekend. In the end I had to scrape the bugger off as my legs were starting to hurt!

Hippopotas · 06/11/2021 07:44

I was trapped last night. Couldn’t even move my hand as it was her headrest.
