A tail in the hand beats two in the bush!
You just know your cat trusts you when you can go to sleep with her tail in
your hand Or when she wraps her tail around your wrist and you just nod off to sleep (hearing purrs the whole while).. It's love! Jill --loves Persia... and Persia loves Jill |

He is getting better, though. He doesn't complain nearly as much as he used to. On these colder nights, I consider myself very very fortunate when he decides it will be okay to crawl on top of me and take a nap -- always a nap, never planning, it seems, to spend the night there. Just as well: he's a bit on the heavy side. Still, it feels great on a cold night. |

Jo LOL Persia sometimes combs my hair with her teeth, but she has much more fur than I have (thin) hair. I do agree we snuggle together for warmth. But I don't let her hold my tail G Jill |

It's love! Jill --loves Persia... and Persia loves Jill I often have Stinky's tail in my hand when I fall asleep-- he also wraps his tail around my arm, or even my neck! The thing that really amazes me is how he puts his paw into my hand, and lets me hold it. Theresa Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh Make Levees, Not War |

It's love! Jill --loves Persia... and Persia loves Jill The tail is not a big deal for Cali, the tummy is another matter. If she's really relaxed, I can put my hand between her back legs and rest my palm on her tummy or chest. True nirvana is giving her a reverse chin scritch with my fingers, while keeping my hand on her chest. This is always worth a few extra decibels from the Purr motor. If she's not relaxed, I'll get a bunny kickin. |

Awwwww.....!
My two who have long tails both love it when I comb them! (Their tails, or any other part of them.) My two who are Japanese Bobtails or mixes thereof do NOT like my hand on their tails. (They feel weird anyway because the bones of the tail curl around inside.) I love to watch those short-tailed cats switch their tails though. They remind me of those cat clocks where the tail moves by the second, and they make a most delightful thump. Cantate |

And I was asleep, wasn't thinking... let my hand fall down on her oh so soft belly and dammit! I was wounded! I still have the danged scars. http://pets.webshots.com/photo/10848...46690505Stttgd Jill |

Oddly, (or not) that's the general region where Ketzl sleeps. Still, he's getting better about the tail thing. He's even begun to like having it brushed. Now I need to work on brushing his belly without getting the bunny kicks. Speaking of kicks, sometimes when we play "string" the string (a ribbon, actually; he doesn't know the difference) gets wound around him a few times and after a brief pause while he contemplates the situation he sets off in this series of running mule-kicks to try to dislodge the string. It's hilarious. Whatta guy. -- Joey DoWop Dee Remember: It is To Laugh |
