Does your cat regularly switch their "comfort area"?
It seems the Nashville Cat is even more finicky than I used to believe- since moving into my apartment a year ago she's had a good time of it. One thing, though- she keeps selecting new naptime territory.

She started out on the back of one easy chair. Then after a while she switched to MY easy chair. Then it was on to the back room window sill, then on to a folding chair I keep set up for clients, then it she wasn't happy unless she was lying across the keyboard on my work desk....

Right now she's dozing while sitting above THIS keyboard. It rests on a rolling laptop desk (I compute from my easy chair) and usually has four remote controls on it. Today she made it clear she wanted that space, so now the remotes are elsewhere and she's sound asleep.

Is that usual cat behavior, or is she just strange? :evilgrin:

1. My cat can't relax unless she's able to stare at me. For hours.
:scared:

3. Kinda gives you a raging guilt complex, doesn't it.
Nashville also likes to sit on my coffee table and do the Egyptian Cat God thing- staring at me with those green lasers that make me feel certain there's something worshipful I should be doing, but I don't ever know quite what it is.

2. I've had 2 cats and it was the same thing.
They want the most inconvenient place possible for their own. :)

4. Nashville has her tail wrapped around my mouse right now.
But since her heiney is taking up most of the mouse's space anyway, I don't suppose that's a big deal... :rofl:

5. Mine does that
Right now he is parked in front of me on the computer desk. There isn't much room there for anything else.

7. No, much as it pisses me off. Cannot keep those 3 off the Miata...
ARRRGGGGHHHHHHH. They have no interest in our other 2 vehicles. But they love the miata, cannot keep it clean. I've got a comfortable place I'd like to stick my size 11 foot re: their butts.:mad:

9. that's how they roll
I have four. One peculiar thing I note is that anything lying on the floor, shorts, plastic bag is a nest. So is the curl of the idle vacuum cleaner hose ... someone is bound to stake out that circle.
