Over the weekend I found this old photo of MomCat, Kitten Britches, and me sitting in my reading chair back in 2009 or 10, before MomCat died and before we moved to our new home. MomCat always did like to curl up in my lap, and Kitten Britches has always been quite standoff-ish about crawling into laps, she has never been a cuddly cat. But recently, since Ishmael died, when she sees me sitting, she makes tentative moves to get in my lap, but at the same time seems confused, not sure how to go about it. Perhaps she is channeling old MomCat, now that our cuddle bug Ishmael is gone.
