My cat Holly is not a lap cat [View all]

For 14.5 years she has never once laid in my lap. The closest she's ever come is to rest her two front paws on my thigh while lying next to me. Well, guess who's laying in my lap today? I looked down and there she was! She's even purring! This is such a happy day for me. My heart is about to burst with joy.

Uh-oh, there she goes! It was wonderful while it lasted. I hope she does it again soon.
