Sometimes I wonder if the cat sees me as more than a food dispenser.

I've been sick in bed all day pretty much, and she's sitting beside me. When I fell asleep and woke up suddenly she was all alert, checking to see if I was OK.

Right now, the heater is on in the lounge room. She has a favourite spot she sits in (on top of her TP nest).

But she's sitting in the cold bedroom with me instead.

Good old fluffy butt.

They know. I have one love bug, one standoffish queen and a sometimes spicy sausage. During the day its usually hands off the two girls, but they take turns to sleep with me at night.

They know. She loves you, as much as a cat can. This is her way of looking after you :) you truly are loved by a cat.

They definitely do. Cats are incredibly loving, but very very subtle
