- Sweet Pea sounds a lot like Maggie. Maggie will usually 'tell' me that she
- wants to be picked up, and will jump if I don't comply within a reasonable
- amount of time (guess how long ;^> ). She doesn't make it all the way to my
- shoulder in one leap - she jumps to about my chest or upper back and then
- climbs the rest of the way. The amazing thing is that she never claws me
- when she does this. She seems to know how to jump up and catch my clothes
- instead of my skin.
-
- Maggie's other favorite thing is to crawl inside my shirt. I usually wear
- baggy stuff, and she will paw at the bottom of my shirt until I hold it
- open and let her in. Then she flattens herself against my skin, purrs like
- mad, and falls sound asleep. It can be kind of embarassing if there's
- anyone else around...
