    This was my introduction to our new rescue kitten Milton. My gf has been wanting to get another cat since Zappa Cat went to Heaven. I told her to go see this cat and bring the carrier just in case. She went back the next day and brought him home. I picked him up and tucked him under the covers w me and he went to sleep on me. This was 2 months ago. 

    More cuteness to follow…
    Awesome. 

    The night we took home our two rescues, Alice curled up on my lap & dozed off pretty quickly (after exploring the house of course). 

    What a great feeling & start to the relationship. 

    Congrats on the new addition. 
    TY everyone.  He is 2 handfuls.  He yields to me but nibbles on my GF.  He climbs on my chest just before my alarm goes off and purrs in my ear.  He gets excited when the alarm goes off because he gets his rubs and gets a meal in a few minutes.

    creatures of habit.
    It took months for Alice to curl up in my wife's lap, she definitely warmed up to me right away. 

    Then one of my buddies came over and she curled up in his lap as soon as he sat down, I figured it was a gender thing. 



    Needless to say my wife was bullshit when Alice curled up in a stranger's lap but not my hers after several months.  :D
    HA!  The GF does the same thing when she sees Milton climb on my lap yesterday.

    At least he waits until just before your alarm goes off. Lately, mine have not given me that consideration. They have been averaging a good hour before my alarm is set to go off. Impatient little things they are :angry:

    One of mine has been creeping on me around 3... that's my fault for getting up @ 4 in the spring & summer to exercise... now that the dark cooler autumn mornings are here the 4 AM workouts are out the window, but somehow Alice didn't get the memo.

    Flea comes into the bedroom as soon as I wake up. She never lays on my lap though; that’s reserved for my husband only :angry:

    A simple trip to the bathtub/shower means no more rude awakenings; at least, it's worked with every cat I've ever had that problem with.

    HA!  Will that cure them from jumping on the counter?

    He certainly has. Lucky kitty. My cats would love it if I had a fireplace.

    One of those “women’s” channels runs footage every year around Christmas of cats and kittens and pups frolicking in front of a fireplace. Can’t have that in this condo!

    That’s great!! She looks all riled up by the end. My cats love those feather toys as well. It keeps their attack skills intact.

    Bought my cat an Advent Calender (?).

    So cute. One of my cats lets me rub his belly like that. He loves it. The other one, not so much. She won't scratch me if I try, she just runs off.

    Only thing better than a cat’s exposed belly is a welcoming one 😺

    One of these goobers loves the belly rubs, the other just waits on her back like a feline bear trap baiting my hand.

    Did you really think that exposed fang would go unnoticed?

    That is too damn cute.
