I have to disagree as far as the keyboard is concerned. Somehow my chihuahua mix manages to cover my keyboard in dog hairs several times a day, even though he sits at my feet instead of on the keyboard. I’ll use this little computer dust brush to wipe them off, and an hour later they’re back again.

I’ve learned the hard way it’s better that dogs don’t sit near the screen. My other dog was sitting next to me while talking to my nephew on Skype. She wasn’t afraid of him, but when he had me turn the screen to her and she saw herself in the little video box, she freaked out and barked and screamed like someone was killing her. That’s right, she was afraid of herself. I’m sure cats don’t do that either.

I completely agree. :^)

I do not, however, have a polydactyl feline. I do have a sweet silver tabby I nursed from 3 days old. I love the special bond we share and YES! the cute cuddly inspiration she gives me is priceless as a writer.

All of this is so true! My Moo manages to get riiiight in front of my computer, between me and my keyboard and just nuzzle all over my face. I can’t do a thing while he’s there, but I can’t really complain either… he’s just so darn cute!

I love your cat, very beautiful! We have a proverb that says “I want to borrow the hands of cats.”, that means “I’m so busy that even I hope cats would help me”.
Well, in Japan, we think “cat” is another name of “lazy bones”, but I think that’s just the charming points of cats!

Your cat is beautiful, I love the eyes! I have one and it’s enough. We all have allergies so it wouldn’t be a good idea to get another one. Plus he wouldn’t allow it, lol. He gets very angry and starts hissing… :explode:

PS. I have an award for you on my Blog…

I have two. Seymour (he’s a year old) and Coco (she’s 6 mos. old). Coco never gives me a break she loves to sit in my lap while the laptop is in MY LAP! She wants to be stroked and wants to rub noses the entire time I’m online. It’s a little annoying but so very endearing….I love ‘em both! :shades:

You’ve got a beautiful cat. I used to have one that always had to lay right in front of the monitor so that I couldn’t see what I was doing. That and laying on any paper I left out.

I like this! I love when my cats come around while I’m at the computer. Don’t know if they help my writing any though.
