Gulliver Cats

Posted at 7:41 pm MDT to Miscellaneous

Monday night I went to bed early, but it didn't do me any good. I spent most of the night tossing and turning.

Dinah Kitty finally got fed up with the way I kept moving and making the waterbed shake. She got up from her usual sleeping spot near the foot of the bed and came and leaned her front half on my waist, purring. I don't think I slept much for the rest of the night, but I stopped moving around.

Last night she over as soon as I turned out the light and pinned part of me under the comforter. I guess she wasn't taking any chances.

Being just one cat (albeit a large one), Dinah can't really trap me under the blankets

A dozen years or so ago I had three cats who used to all snuggle up to me, with me under the covers and the cats on top of them. I used to feel like Gulliver trapped by the Lilliputians.

I miss having more than one cat. But Dinah hates other cats. And I can't be sure I won't need to relocate again. Travelling with more than one cat would be tricky, and I think even some of the corporate housing places that will allow one cat draw the line at two or more.
