I had the most wonderful experience tonight with our cat, Tuxie. She's not a "lap kitty" AT ALL, but while I was watching Elementary, sitting on the couch, she wandered by, saw the other half of the couch was empty, and hopped up beside me. She circled around a few times, tapped my thigh a few times, tried to do that "kneading" thing, which I hate, it really hurts when they dig those razor sharp claws in.... then settled down just beside me, with her pretty little head on my leg. I felt completely honored.
