One of my cats Bailey has decided that his only desire in life is to grab my attention. When I get a phone call, he will leap up on the top of the chair, lay down on his back and gently wrap his paws around the receiver knocking it to the floor! When I pick it up and apologize to the person whose ear just rattled, he does it again! If I shout one scream of displeasure, the person on the other end usually laughs sympathetically and says "you must have kids!" If they know me they laugh unsympathetically and say "Which cat did that to you Mary Anne?"
If I am on the computer, Bailey is down at my feet meowing. When I ignore him, he hops up on the scanner, walks across the keyboard, blocks the monitor looking at me like he wants something. This is the cat who used to choose a hay bale over my lap. Now he has to wrap himself around me. Right now he is on the top of my computer chair playing with my hair! LOL
I've taken him to the vet. Who said Bailey is fine. I even asked for blood panels fearing this affection turn-about was an indication he was sick. The vet just laughed and laughed when I shared with him all this goofy orange kitty has been doing lately.
Ahh- life at the farm- isn't it grand!
