Before I put her on the stool, she was sitting on the floor just staring up at me pathetically. I kneeled down slightly to thread the -5 rotate latch clevis onto the latch rod, and before I knew it there was a cat on my shoulder. :-) I left her there for a few minutes, but we eventually settled on the stool as a suitable perch.
Yeah - kinda weird, but this cat is also a real "sniffer." She loves to bury her head into areas rich in various odors (let your imagination run wild :-) ) like my bushy handlebar mustache (before I sheared it down). Who knows, maybe some of that Magic IBM Selectric Grease (TM) was made from rendered-down mice and milk fat? :-)
Nice tabby. it could be distantly related to Charlie.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, they are cosmic kitty cousins. :-)
DeleteJudging by the expression on its face: he's transmitting a report - Harry-from-the-"3rd-Rock-From-The-Sun"-style - to the High Commander Charlie...
ReplyDeleteShe does look a little like French Stewart. :-)

ReplyDeleteAwwww.... Another typewriter loving cat! It must be the smell of the machines.

DeleteWell, you've discovered that mice also love to hang out in Selectrics. Probably a connection there.
ReplyDeleteSo cute.
