Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for November 27, 2014

My brother’s cat fouled my laptop so badly that it is now only stable in “safe” mode.

It’s not as comfortable as the top of a lap, but they call it a lap top, so there must be something special about it.

Time to re-boot.

Our laptop is so bad we don’t even have to touch it to have it lock up on us.

Luckily my cats don’t sit on my laptop, but one of them does like to knock pens and pencils out of my hand when using them.

With that kind of reporting, all the cats are going to be jumping on that laptop.

Everytime i use my laptop my cat blocks my view of the screen by standing in front of it. Sometimes she’ll stare at the mouse & follow it across the screen like it’s a bird sitting in a tree.

Cats have an affinity for warmth and for the mouse. No wonder there are lap dog and laptop cats.

My cat rarely bothers me when I’m on my laptop, but when I used to have a desktop, she would love to sit on the monitor because it was warm at the top.

Gosh, I’m madly in love with this strip!

Jingle Belle doesn’t get on the keyboard but likes to lie beside me on the desk. She will try to play with pens lying loose on the desk, and when she starts using the bulletin board for a scratch pad I usually evict her from the office.

Lupin: The woman is trying to use a laptop.

Puck: Elvis, what can you tell us?

Elvis: The laptop is roasty on my toesies.

Woman: Elvis, c’mon -

Lupin: Ooh, that sounds nice.

Puck: It sure does, Lupin.

Lupin: Has she been able to type anything yet?

Elvis: Not a word. I locked the keyboard the moment I sat on it.

Woman: How did you even DO this?!

Is there a cat safety tool installed which locks the keyboard as soon as some keys are pressed in a cat-typical manner? And does Elvis still have a paw on one key?

my dog does this
