I have often read that when a cat waves his/her tail side to side he/she is uncomfortable and even angry. However sometimes when my 4 years old Sombra is lying on my lap with her front paws on my chest she will slowly wave her tail. I don't hold her so that she is completely free to go away if that is what she wishes. If I scratch her chin she will lick my hand but even then her tail will wave. Could it be that waving her tail can also mean contentment?
Sombra very rarely sits across my lap. She prefers the vertical position with her front paws on my chest many times wanting to lick my throat but she will not remain on my lap for very long periods. But she will spend all night long close to me on my bed and will lie on my computer table or desk top to keep me company whenI am busy there.
