Neck-warmer

"Penny the Kitten and Eric the Human" was sent in by Haylan. Obvy, Haylan is a professional stylist, turning up Penny's paw just so. Did you have to go and just twist the knife like that Haylan? Thanks. Thanks a whole lot. Nice maximizing a Snorgling viewpoint, too. Geeshe.

My 3-month-old "catten" (not a kitten anymore, but not yet a cat) does that to my chest. He starts out in my lap, then just walks up my ample girth to the vast shelf of my, erm, pectoral region, and plops down. Like they're the most comfy cushions in the universe.

Anyone else have cats that do that?

Oh--and FIRST!! *runs from Theo*

I want a neck warmer with a cute little sticky-up tail!
I don't have one. :(

Tiny potbelly! and blissful kitty smile.

Denita, beware. From personal experience, once your pectoras can't support the growing feline on their own, said feline tends to dig his claw in your shoulders and upper back for purrrchase.

Denita -- are you out of your *mind*, woman?

The Doones are getting to that "sack out anyplace" stage. I *might* be able to get a new video clip up today, detailing a bit of this. Watch this thread; it'll be riduckulous.

D2D- I have a kitty that does that! We call it the shelf, and he is definitely comfortable there. A real shelf-sitter.

Theo-
How big is that cat? Must be the camera angle - its head looks as big as yours!

g-lo
 |  Aug 07, 2006 at 07:28 AM

G-Lo -- it's true, Mr. Bounce ain't tiny. He's no 20-pounder, though.

Theo
 |  Aug 07, 2006 at 07:36 AM

I had a 30-pounder (may she rest in peace) but she had a teeny head! Big-boned!

They kinda look like siamese twins joined at the neck.

Kelly

[sings triumphantly]

My kitten used to sleep like that on me! He'd climb up on my shoulders and look around, like the lookout guy onboard a ship (Thar she blows!") before just plopping down to sleep. That fuzziness under your chin is heaven. :-)

Unforunately, aforementioned kitten is now 5 months old and refuses to recognize me anymore. I've been dumped! [sniffles]

Subhangi
 |  Aug 07, 2006 at 08:09 AM

Theo, that and multiple variations thereof. Similar cat, too.

Alienor
 |  Aug 07, 2006 at 08:22 AM

Subanghi, don't worry it will all come right in a few months. You're just experiencing kitolesence, when parents are *so* embarrassing.

i love the smile of contentment on the kitten's face! so sweet.

Subhangi, I'm sorry I misspelled your name. Apologies.

When my boys were just wee ones they used both sleep on my neck like this picture, one on each side of my head. I had Kitten-muffs. As they grew, they then slept one in my arm-pit and one between my legs, 'up near there'. Then as they continued to grow (and grow they did) they both would sleep between my legs. My back so suffered for that as I couldn't move at night. Now I sleep on my side and Garf spoons on the front and Simon 'oozes' over my legs from the back.

Oh, for the day when they were just teeny-tiny again!

Hate to be a wet blanket - no pun intended - but, that's either (1) an oddly-shaped shadow or (2) kitty whizz on the guy's shirt.

Mad_Mike
 |  Aug 07, 2006 at 09:33 AM

It took me a couple of moments to see the 'wet spot'.

Maybe the dude was drooling over the cutness cuddled up to him?

Diem

Kitty Whizz-- the new aerosol cat snack from Velveeta!

J. Bo
 |  Aug 07, 2006 at 09:46 AM

it sure does look like kittie-pee. but usually they don't do that unless they're scared, upset, or sick, and sleepy doesn't look like any of those.

(and my grown-up smudgie still sleeps on my neck when he's in the mood, but now he's so big i can hardly breathe.)

 |  Aug 07, 2006 at 09:57 AM

maybe Eric's just wearing a dirty T...

I think that's just a shadow, MM.

[waits for a pointless commentroversy to erupt]

Maybe it's 8000 degrees outside and the kitten is being all melty and the dude is just sweating?

Diem

What a Penny loafer.

Oh the belly! The little pudgy kitty belly! *snorgles it madly* *sneeze*

carriegood, my semi-"special" kitten used to pee all over me when he waas warm and happy, I learned to take it as a compliment. Thank goodness he grew out of it, because he weighs in at 18 pounds and could raise the water level in a river, if you catch my drift.

D2D... lmao, my smallest cat likes to "make biscuits" as they call it here, on my...er... well, let's just say she's in the right area for feeding, but definitely the WRONG species. And I'm not lactating... but that's another matter entirely. She pooshes so hard I think I'm gonna bruise. Again, I learned to take it as a compliment. At least she keeps her claws retracted. "Ow! Thank you... OW! Thanks, cutie... OW OW OW! Ok, maybe time to move over..."

Lizzy? You allergic to kitties? Me too, but I have two anyway. I just take one Claritin-D 12 hours in the morning and I'm good to snorgle!

fine, yes, pun intended, sorry, sorry...

Theo

Awww, I used to have a kitty that would sleep on my shoulder like that. SO CUTE!!! Enjoy it while it lasts!

Lisa

BELLEH BELLEH BELLEH!!!

I will not stop pointlessly complaining until I am given this kitteh to Snorgle His BellehBellehBelleh of Floofitudinousness!!!

cute guy, too. mmmmmmmm...

This reminds me of a game we used to play: one would hold an orange under his/her neck, and try to pass it to the next person, without the use of hands. It would have been much more fun if we had used a kitteh.

Funny thing you mention that, Carolina, cuz I was gonna say he's kinda fugly!

My suggestion was gonna be crop out the emo dude with the nasty ear plugs and leave in a bit o'chin for point of reference...

(I'm against all things emo, including the way it turns boys into girls.) I married a shaved-headed, broad-shouldered manly man. :D

Skwerly
 |  Aug 07, 2006 at 12:22 PM

Fugly? What a pointless, mean comment to make about someone who very well might read the comments.

I took a trip to Rhode Island to tour the big mansions there when in junior high, and there were many paintings of people with their pets scattered around. It was explained that the people of the time believed having an animal in the painting made them look more attractive by comparison. I remember thinking in every case that the animal was the best part of the picture. :D

In this case, though, I find them quite complimentary. Boys who snorgle make good snugglers.

seriously swerly that was uncalled for. sheesh

back when my sis first got her lil-kitten-baby named Sprout, they used to do exactly this. until he kitty-whizzed on her in his sleep.
