Oh, you know why I used this icon. God rest Skippy's (or whatever his name was) gentle feline soul. He seemed like a nice cat
Damn! I'm betting Charley's one of those cats that pretends to be all: "oh, pet my obscenely soft belly, I certainly won't turn on you in a nanosecond, dig my claws into your forearm and proceed to gnaw off all of your fingers! Not me!"
It's always kind of creeped me out how cats can actually squeeze their bodies under doors.
This is why I like my dogs. The big one's worst weapon is his tongue and the puppy just gently moves my hand where he wants it (or me) to go with his teeth. I taught him how to take treats from my fingers like he's at high tea and now he uses that skill to his advantage. For example: "Please get up. I'm tugging a little bit on your pinky finger to let you know I need to go outside before I pee all over the carpet."
Advantage: Dogs. Well, mine anyway. Especially since Arthur likes watching An American Werewolf in London. Or the Geico commercial with the pig that cries "wee wee wee" all the way home.
Though tubby cats win points for being affectionate (usually) and waking you up at 5AM by deciding to lie on your chest and watch you breathe.
