While Felix has many quirks, he generally leaves me alone when I am working -- or naps quietly in my lap as I type.

Flora, on the other hand, is quite possibly the world's most annoying cat*, at least if you are someone who uses a computer for a living, or prefers an unobstructed view of your monitor, or likes to type on your keyboard without being pawed to death.
And weighing in at 15.5 pounds with fully operational claws, Flora is not the easiest cat to shoo away.

*though Simon's Cat may be a close second
OMG, Jennifer, that is hysterical!!!! All of us cat lovers have a version of Flora and/or Simon's cat (I always wondered why I woke up with a headache!)
ReplyDeleteCats require quite a bit of maintenance, no doubt. And they want it when they want it....or else they will give you the dreaded "butt in the face!"
They are worth it, those wonderful little furballs!
Flora would definitely win in a staring contest!
ReplyDeleteWe don't get to have anyone sit on our laps at work...must be the anti-harrassment policy!
Meow!
She may be a pest, but what a beauty!
ReplyDeleteThe top pic of Flora is the look I get all the time from Tweak...rather irreverent!
