I don't have kitties anymore since I became allergic to them a long time ago..
I've got a toy poodle.
He sits on my lap when I'm at the computer (yup - here right now, weighing me down lol) and when I crochet he comes over and lays on my outstretched legs... and when I'm sewing in the craft room he wants in on the action too - he has the old computer chair with his doggie pillow on it... not that it fits in my craft room most of the time but he still likes to come in and keep me company...
I miss cats :(
