Dougy the kitten used to put his front paw on my arm when he slept by me on the computer desk. Now that he is a mature cat, he steps it up and wraps both front and hind legs around my arm. So much for using the mouse or much else! (So I did manage to take the photo with my smart phone, using my left hand and left thumb. Even I was amazed!)
Oh well, come winter, I’ll appreciate the arm warmer!
Returning to posts I somehow missed. I especially love this one. That wrap must be nice in bed on a Nebraska winter night.
Cats are normally 102° F, so yes, it is nice! I only wish they were bigger!
That’s so sweet! And it weighs a lot less than if he’d laid on your arm. 🙂
Yes, that’s true. He’s been wrapping himself on me since kittenhood, and the photo I have of him as a kitten that’s framed and on my wall across from the computer is of teeny Dougy wrapped on my arm! I love that image! The one I have of Andy is typical, too. Kitten Andy is standing on my keyboard looking straight out at me. I love that image of him, too!
Livonia Ross – I hit that mystery spot on my keyboard that trashes comments. The thing that really torques me off about it is there is an “Undo” place to click on that never restores the comment. The essence of the comment you posted was that Dougy has me wrapped around his paw; my =response is that yes, he does!
hahahahaha….you don’t need that hand anyway. Reminds me of Kali when we’re in bed. She likes to have her hind paws touching me but if I interfere with her space, those little pawsd can kick pretty hard.

That they can! And they have pointy things on the end of each toe! LOL! Dougy does the arm wrap business to me when I’m in bed, too.
Are the cats that are spoiled by you or you by the cats especially Dougy . ? 🙂
In friendship

I fear I’m responsible for spoiling them, Michel!
That is absolutely adorable, the manner in which he clings to his human. It seems he might love you, just a little bit.
Yes, he doesn’t like to be held for long, but he can hug my arm a long time.
Now thats love.
As noted, I especially enjoy it in winter!
That is so sweet. 🙂
Dougy is very much so!
Closer and closer : he means that he loves you so much 🙂
He does that! He can be very clingy. Um…I guess we established that already!

What a lovely cat
He must be your best friend
He always has been, since he was a kitten! His brother Andy is, too, though he is less demonstrative about it.
He is so lovely, and warm.
He’s about 5,3 kilos of cat, with 50% of that very fine fur, so it’s like a hand warmer to have him wrapped around my arm. He does this when I am in bed, too.
From the days ….. long long ago ….. when I had kitties of my own I remember they did like to wrap all fours around my arm. I discovered they even liked being carried about the house in this fashion …. me walking …. them wrapped around my arm ….. holding on for dear life and apparently enjoying every minutes of it.
LOL! So far Dougy hasn’t got that bad…yet!
