This is actually A+ cat management.

“Mirroring” is a big thing with cats. It’s why they will lay in similar positions several feet apart, or will come and try to do things when you do them.
It’s a sign that they love you and want to show.

This cat wants to be close to its owner, and also wants to do what its owner is doing, to be involved in some way.

Giving them their own thing to use is a really great way to redirect them and allow them to mirror the behavior in a non-disruptive way that frustrates neither party.

This is a GOOD IDEA.

molly is the champion of purring

i always tell people that it’s an actual problem that we can be watching TV and then someone makes eye contact with molly and we can no longer hear the dialogue, we have to read the subtitles.

and they think we are exaggerating, but a friend came to visit and discovered that, no, that actually happens.

Loud Girl

She sounds like she’s pretending to be a motorcycle!

she can do this for HOURS, by the way. you don’t have to be petting her. i lie down next to her and start reading, and off she goes. ❤

Cripes, that’s the sound the COUGARS make up at the wildlife rescue.
