Cass, bolt quickly!
But then, mine aren't startle-claws. They are pillow HOGS.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He looks freakishly like he did 15 years ago. A lot of them do. Colin doesn't -- he aged dramatically about 8 years ago. But when he was last here we looked up some of his old friends, and it's like they've been photoshopped into their lives, with children and stuff.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Mine have their own pillow to fight over so they tend to leave mine alone. Kittenish has it now. Which leaves me with StartleClaws!Puppycat (excellent description, btw) snoozing happily on my legs. It would be adorably cute if I didn't want to get some juice and fizzy water.

This is my plan. Mister Kitty has been taking the good pillow (of THREE) , leaving me to wake up at 4 am with my neck bent at a wrong angle. Plus, cathair everywhere. And him still using me as a pillow.

I have one of the cheap chiro pillows with the divet in the middle. Satisfies their inner nook cravings.
I do have to change the pillow case about every other day though due to massive cathair issues. Sometimes I think it would be easier to just vacuum the cats.

I get all sorts of twitchy feelings at your conversation, Cass and sara. I just can't imagine it. I had a cat sleep on my feet once--it was big enough that I wasn't sure I'd win the battle, not in the long term, and get any rest that night.
But basically? Nononono, memememe, stop shedding!

Indoor animals are sadly all about the shed.
We're thinking of sending Kuma off to the farm. Or fostering him for a bit. I think it would be good but I'd miss the silly boydog.

We've made you twitch, ita?

And, in general, I win in the battle of wills. I just don't really have a good startleclaw defense in my arsenal. Or the desire to bleed tonight.

Not that I was going for the twitch, but considering some of your links...

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Ha.
DH is on the phone with someone doing a survey on CA issues. All the ones the governator lost on. He is annoying the poor survey taker by saying things like
- Redistricting is not an issue, it is a red herring -
which means I had to leave the room because I was laughing too hard.
Poor thing, she is having a hard time staying on script.
