<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 940605, member: 5833"]I work at a little vintage writing desk, the kind that can close up & the writing surface slides in & out, so not very much surface area. I use a PC. Most of the time, one of the cats demands the desk top, so I'm usually working with the keyboard in my lap. Problems come when the other cat decides it's meal time & jumps into the bit of lap space between the keyboard & my torso, hunkers down, puts his chin on my typing had & presses down, looking for all the world like he just wants to be with me because he loves me so much. To prevent what happened with your kitty, parked on your nice warm laptop, I end up holding the keyboard with one hand, typing with the other. They gang up on me, because she knows what happens when he does that & gets up to start butting me in the face with her head. They have nothing else to do, & I always cave. I know, I know. Shut them out, put them down, show them whose boss. It would just be maintaining a fiction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
