No, but I've got mine with his front paws on my right leg and if I don't stop typing real quick, he's gonna dig his claws in to get my attention!!! YIKES!!! OUCH!!!
 Just let ME want some attention from him and see what I get! He sticks his nose and tail up in the air and saunters away! HUMPH! Cats! You gotta love 'em! ... or do you?

LOL I'd never hear the end of it from him if I dared to do something so wicked and evil! LOLOL I'd rather put up with a few puncture wounds than listen to him tell me off for hours!

but if you have him in a soft cloth carrier on your chest or lap what's wrong with that (cept his claws would not reach your thighs...)

 Yes! And try to type with five katz alternating jumping on you and digging in the claws if you don't perform correctly. Each kat has its own different demands. You know the saying. Dogs have masters. Katz have staff. Sometimes I need a day off, and I tell them no laptime today. My bad back gets the best of me. This is their usual reply:  But I  them. *sigh* And you folks only get whatever typing they will permit me

Aw, he'd find some way to keep my from typing and get me to scratch his face. He' probably stick his head under my hands so I couldn't reach the keys. LOLOL He's not content with just being near me or on me. I have to scratch his cheeks!
 Pesky cat! LOL

I've got a puppy and when he gets tired of me being on the computer, he pulls at my arms.
When I'm playing a certain game too long, he tries to move my hand off the mouse! So I go play with him. |

yes cms, my service dog "insists" that way,.. but he flips my arm up with his snout. He can't just bark, as I am hard of hearing. (I don't think he knows I can hear his bark though, shhhhhh.)
Angel, when you go camping you have to pee somewhere!

My cat would take the prize for cuteness. When I lost my 12 year old cat last summer, I thought no cat could replace my "Little Girl" and I told myself I'd never get another cat. After two weeks, I was so lonely that I decided to go looking at cats. The first place I went, there were about 10 cages of cats and some had names already. There was a 6 month old tabby named "Taffy". I put my fingers in the cage and she gave me a rub. As soon as I looked into those eyes, I knew this was the one and I had to have her or no cat at all! She's too good to be true and I've never seen a cat so vocal or crazy for affection. She follows me everywhere and will flip on her back between my feet as if to say "Rub my tummy, Please!" When I'm on the phone, she acts like a little kid, doing anything for attention. I don't know what I'd do with out her.
BTW, is there some unwritten rule that men aren't supposed to have cats as pets? I keep getting the feeling that people think I'm not a "real" man or something.

Guy - I would contend that OUR cats would win the prize for sweetness, but we can have coastal contests if it makes it easier!
No way about guys and cats. "Our" cats are much more attached to my husband than to me and he can't sleep without them. He works at a man's-man bike shop and several of the guys there own kitties. In fact, the last time I went out for drinks with them after work, it was the main topic of conversation. So worry not. (btw, the fact that you are a cat lover gives you an ADDITIONAL point to your South Park point!)

I'd have to second LMo about cats. I even based my posting name on a very famous cat. I've also met EmptyGlass' cats Simon and Mishka, and we got on famously. Although I don't own a cat at present, it's the only kind of pet I'd consider, living in an apartment in Manhattan.

Mine is asleep all day long when I want to spend time with him. Then as soon as I try to get ready for work he is all over me. Rubbing against me (covering me with hair) crying and jumping. Of course me too is not just content to be near me I have to be petting him. Putz!!
If I did not love him so much I would make him get a job. Jessica

Hey, we should have a contest for our cats. LOL Mine hates having her picture taken. As soon as she knows I'm reaching for the camera, she runs away but I can still sneak one in now and then.
I feel better now. I thought I was the only man with a cat. However, I still think most people raise an eyebrow at the thought of it.

Not me. Cats are a good pet for anyone....man, woman...or mouse...well maybe not mouse.
I have pictures of my babies in the photogallery. I only have kitten pictures from a webcam of my brothers. I will have to ask him to send me some. They lived in my bathroom for a few weeks. We gave him the kittens as a birthday present. I have pictures somewhere of his reaction. I was priceless. Besides, anyone who owns a cat can't be bad. Cats are great pets.
