They’re very sleepy. Not sleepy enough to lay in the box, but very sleepy on my chest. I assume this is like couch sleepy vs bed sleepy for people.

Just got back from the vet. Dandruff was 1.31 lbs at her visit 4 weeks ago. Today she was 2.94 lbs which is listed as ideal body score. Vet recommend spaying at 5-6 months old so that would be in about 2-3ish months. She is negative for feline leukemia and negative for worms.

How exactly is it that a cat can move with so much elegance and grace, flowing like water, not even making a ripple in the sheets they run across, yet also land like they weigh 45lbs directly on your stomach? Only to then float away on the gentle breeze again moments later.
