Ninja, my resident tabby, has also discovered the trick of waiting until other bedmates are asleep to join in. In her case, though, it's my husband who can't abide cats in bed. She arrives after he's asleep, we exit for cat food and cream in the early a.m. before he's awake.denverdochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574453567392165275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-52366501493855221702008-01-04T15:17:00.000-05:002008-01-04T15:17:00.000-05:00My brother and sister in law have two wonderful, p...My brother and sister in law have two wonderful, playful cats.

He seems to like women best anyway, although he is affectionate to my husband and likes to sit in his lap.<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry you can't have cats - I have an old friend I've known since grammar school who loved cats and was allergic to them. She'd come over to our house to hang out with me and sneeze the entire time. I think she ended up getting shots to get over it and now has cats of her own. But they don't work for everyone.<BR/><BR/>Kittehs, glad you enjoyed Baxter's post!Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-70796989780200267652008-01-03T19:38:00.000-05:002008-01-03T19:38:00.000-05:00Baxter did well, indeed.Mauigirl, whatever you do,...Baxter did well, indeed.<BR/><BR/>Mauigirl, whatever you do, don't let Baxter answer any emails or Skype calls from the Secret Lair Kittehs.

I'll bet Baxter would come out from under the bed to see me if I visited. For some reason, cats who normally don't like people come over to me and try to jump in my lap. The way I figure it, it's either because they love me, or they sense that I have allergies and they want to kill me.Mary Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07835150057881066641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-71088347874225234292008-01-03T14:10:00.000-05:002008-01-03T14:10:00.000-05:00Tomcat, Baxter thanks you for the suggestions and ...Tomcat, Baxter thanks you for the suggestions and told me he'll be lobbying for equal time on the blog. <BR/><BR/>He does try to help a lot during my online banking; he is especially skilled at Computer Blocking techniques and at sitting on the mouse while I'm trying to use it. He knows this is helpful so he makes sure to be there when I'm doing the banking.

If I make make a suggestion or two, as a full equal, you might consider demanding equal time on the keyboard. Also, just because they do their banking online, that's no reason you shouldn't help.

I like the game you used to have with your Momcat; at least she'd get off the bed and then come back. <BR/><BR/>I don't think I've ever had a cat that didn't jump up on the bed when I was trying to make it and refuse to get off. Our old cat Mathilda (who lived to be the ripe old age of 20) loved that game. She'd hide under the sheet and we'd have to play just as Baxter does today. <BR/><BR/>Nick, it's true. Diva enjoys the challenge and the more Baxter growls and hisses the more fun she has. He hasn't quite figured out that if he just ignored her he'd be better off!Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-41382423840711783682008-01-03T08:45:00.000-05:002008-01-03T08:45:00.000-05:00Baxter, I agree with you on the naps.

He has a similar history to yours and understands your attitude toward humans and dogs.<BR/><BR/>In another life I think you may have been a cat called Mom Cat. She was my cat years ago and when I made up the bed, she and I had a game too in which she jumped on the bed, I would say I'm gonna get that cat, and she would jump off the bed, race around the house and then jump right back up on the bed. We would repeat that ordeal until both of us were tired out. But damn, we had fun.pissed off patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08854364015577541981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-24995653342117656692008-01-03T01:20:00.000-05:002008-01-03T01:20:00.000-05:00oh Baxter...you are wonderful...Xena is sitting he...oh Baxter...you are wonderful...Xena is sitting here purring at you you handsome thing...enigma4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589997090173140019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-73604336596938456812008-01-02T23:21:00.000-05:002008-01-02T23:21:00.000-05:00M, Baxter appreciates your praise!DCap, George sou...M, Baxter appreciates your praise!<BR/><BR/>DCap, George sounds like an excellent feline companion.
