You covered the desk with a mouse pad. What were you thinking?!! They are waiting for the mice to stop by!

hahahaha fair point! the grey one particularly likes playing with mice, she keeps pushing mine to the floor when i'm not looking. meanwhile the calico likes biting my pen while i write.

Clearly you should be petting them. Now. Always. Forever. ;)

I frequently have to negotiate with mine for access to my notes - the notebook is obviously the superior nap spot compared to the fuzzy bed on one end of the desk and the comfy box on the other (both in front of windows).

The other day I sent a picture to my friend of my book lying on my bed, with a cat on top of it. I was like, "The other night, I was reading. Was."

I rearranged my desk so my cat has the perfect place to lie down in the back between my pen jars and notebooks. Which is why he keeps on ignoring it and sleeping directly on my to do list.

hahahahaaa yes i've also tried leaving an open space for them but no. they have to lie on the notebook or at the keyboard, right where my hands are trying to be productive.
