Our cat isn't quite as active as yours, Ally, but she is one for occasionally attacking our feet. She likes to help us with homework by sitting on the papers we have to read.
She's not much of a lap kitty either, but we think that's because she may have been abused before we adopted her.
She's such a sweet girl, though, really. And she's a fantastic traveler - we traveled over Christmas this year and she settled right in to both houses we visited. Rydia's smart - just show her where her food and litter are and she's good to go!
