My cat comes to you only on her terms and she knows when to keep a distance too.  She can be rather moody, but I’ve learned to recognize the look in her eyes when she’s feeling that way and know that I’d better leave her alone.  And I do not like the way she jumps out from under my bed and surprise attacks my legs; yet I realize this is her idea of fun.

She gives me giggles when I see her bird feeder watching and her tail is wildly flicking about as she makes that funny chattering noise. She’s also very loving and gives me a very peaceful feeling when she rubs up against my legs or sits in my lap while I watch my favorite TV show.

And when I see her basking in the sunlight or cuddled on a pillow in a round ball I feel instantly relaxed too. I love the way she is naughty and hops on the counter to drink milk from a glass using her paw to dip it out. And I feel loved when she sits on my bathroom counter and keeps me company while I’m getting ready.

Yesterday I took some closeup photos of her for the first time; I’ve been playing around more with the macro setting on my camera.
