It is so fun having a cat on your lap who has never been on a lap before.
After several days of picking Bell (kitty from pic spam earlier) up and getting her used to being held for short periods, I finally managed to get her on my lap (the grab and dump method). She lounged and rubbed against my hand, licked/nibbled/rubbed some more, headbutted me after staring at my face from less than an inch away (kinda uncomfortable since I had no idea if she wanted to swat, lick, nibble, or what). Then she tried to move while still rubbing against my hand, and kept almost falling off my lap.
When she finally got/fell off, she peeked in the house and Ki hissed at her before running off. Then she actually attempted to go into the house before I distracted her with pets.
But yeah. I'm covered with cat fur, even in my mouth (grrr) and I have some marks on my legs where she was kneeding me through my jeans.
