Thursday Thirteen #2 - 13 Things My Cats Nap On
2nd Edition
13 Things My Cats Nap On
- The throw at the end of my bed. If there’s a blanket, throw, quilt, etc. at the end of the bed, that’s where they will be. There’s sometimes not room enough for me on the bed. It’s not widely known, but cats get bigified while sleeping.
- Spare Bedroom bed, same thing as above except that there’s an entire extra king size quilt at the end of the bed. It’s intended for guests should they need an extra blanket. The cats are most appreciative.
- My desk, while I’m using it. They also block my monitor at every available opportunity.
- The couch. On the remote. And not at the end of the couch. No, no, no. It must be in the middle so nobody will think of disturbing them.
- The piano. The bench if someone takes out sheet music.
- The patio chairs, in the shade. Oh, as long as you’re going inside, would you mind bringing them back a nice cool glass of water?
- Window sills are a favorite spot. They will lay on them for hours watching the world go by. If you happen to forget to open the blinds, they will remind you.
- The coffee table. It’s especially enticing to them if I happen to want to light my candles.
- In the bushes out front. I’m not sure they’re actually sleeping there. It may be that they’re just hiding on their intended prey.
- On top of my freezer in the garage, which also serves as a handy bridge to the garage door tracks.
- Any open drawer. Just turn your back for a second to grab some clean clothes out of the laundry basket. Even if they were outside when you turned to grab the clothes, they’ll be in the drawer once your hands are full of clothes.
- The laundry basket. It lives in my closet and whenever they see the closet door open, they jump into the laundry basket.
- In my lap. This is one of
my excusesthe main reasons some of my chores remain undone. I am the Lap Lady, and I am on duty 24/7 at the pleasure of my cats.

The very best job I could ever imagine is one that would pay me to think… and the currency would be wine!
I love the new place!!! Your ‘instructions’ just gave me a case of the giggles!!!!
P.S. Thanks for putting me on the blogroll….and I love that you put Dooce and Daily Chuck under people who ‘owe you’
On my lap or shoulders seems to be my cat’s favorite spot for napping. Happy TT.
I love your cats they’re so cute. One of my cats will lay on me every time I stop moving for even a moment. LOL
I have a cat in my lap right now.
I have one cat that will follow me around the house meowing for me to sit or lay down so she can have my lap when she wants it. But the other two manage their fair share of lap time. It’s a wonder I bet anything done.
Thanks for visiting my TT.
They do look oh so comfortable! Better than that, I LOVE that quilt! Do you mind me asking where you purchased it?
Thanks for visiting my TT.
