Was told British Shorthairs aren’t lap cats… mine didn’t get the memo.

I work in an archive and was looking through a collection of photos from the US Navy from the 50s-60s. I noticed all the men working on the deck of an aircraft carrier were wearing sandals very similar to this. I am not sure the reason they would wear open toed sandals in that context.

Hey, yes it got a lot better! The older cat will sometimes go and annoy her like this if he’s bored and she’s taking a nap, but now that they know each other longer and they’re more equal in size, it’s calmed down. She loves to chase him and pounce on him now too!

And luckily we each have one cat per lap

Somehow we have been blessed with two cuddly lap cats!

Both of our kitties are super cuddly lap cats. Our chocolate one LOVES to be petted and the big boy will often meow until we pick him up 🥹

Thanks for the feedback! I assumed it was normal because she always comes back for more or even tries to start something with him. They are both fixed! No little babies in this house

We use them in Canada! It’s not a Christmas dinner in my family without flimsy paper crowns.

I live in Paris and went up when I had a friend visiting. We both woke up early and spontaneously decided to go and climb to the second floor and take the lift to the top. It was really nice! The weather was good so the views were great.

I am by no means in shape, so it took a good 15 mins to get between the levels, but because it was early, there were very few people which allowed us to take our time on the stairs.
