Sometimes he’s satisfied to just be near me. Notice his adoring gaze…!

Other times he wraps himself around my arm, totally immobilizing my mousing abilities. This photo, in fact, had to be taken left handed, upside down.

Could be worse. When he faces me, he sometimes has happy paws on my poor, naked skin. He digs right in!

He means no harm, of course. Ouch! Kitty love is a rough love.
