Keyboarding With My Cat

by Bipolarbear

CatMy cat Oprah jumps onto my lap contending briefly with the keyboard upon which I now type

then climbs up my left arm across the back of my neck and down the other arm

shoving her ass in my face

then back up the other arm and across the back of my neck going smooth and sleek the other way and then back down my arm

then starts to happypaw my belly while her back claws dig into my chest and her tail whips my ear

then turns around and heads back up my arm to perch on my right shoulder

only momentarily then she crosses the back of my neck and comes drips down the other arm

climbs around on my belly then turns and clings to my right pectoral like a tiny black bear

then climbs back up and perches on my right shoulder

briefly then she flows behind my neck drifts down the left arm back out onto my belly

pirouettes and settles into my left shoulder clinging again with her front paws through my nightshirt

but my continuous keyboarding jostles her too much and she rises and spins and goes back to my belly

and now she rubs her head on my fingnktha as i type nmakeing mistlakes which is hilarious but she just wants to runb her chin i on my findfegers and now she just lets her head h ue u iyujyuijkjur rest against my right forefinger

now she lifts her head now she lowers it touching my finger briefly lovingly

then raising her head to stare at these letters being typed onto the screen, wow she just turned her head to watch the words "screen, wow she just turned her head to watch..." and she's still following the cursor, the front edge of my keyboarding, and i've completely mesmerized my cat into watching what i type this is too funny she's just sitting here watching the letters appear on the screen all this time

ooh i spasmed and she flinched then returned to watching the cursor move across the screen

oh but now she just leapt off my belly crossed the room and went out the door.
