!!!!!! I have achieved LAP CAT AT THE DESK STATUS

it turns out she just wanted a cushion to lie on instead of directly on my lap.

I am most beautifully trapped, but she has a clear message for me....

striped tabby lying on cushion on lap, sprawling onto work desk with a paw decidedly extended over the keyboard as if to suggest that use of it is henceforth denied

She's going to have to stand in for me at my purrformance review... Not sure if that arm twisting tactic will work with my boss.

Kitty is obviously attempting alt-f4-ing for foodz and patz

I think she's just very concerned about proper OH&S procedures. Here she is following LOTO (lock out tag out) with my dominant hand.
