Wednesday Words

Clawdia has become a lap cat!  This is the cat who has always hated to be picked up or held.  But now she will sit on the keyboard of my laptop, if necessary, just to be in my lap!  I think that means this move into a new apartment has been just as hard on her as it has been on me.  She's also elderly, you know — in cat years.

Word of the Day

lap cat = a type of cat that enjoys sitting in a person's lap and being petted.  They are often quite affectionate and enjoy spending time snuggling with their owner.  (It can also be one word = lapcat.)

By the way, although it looks a lot like her, the cat in the photo is not Clawdia, who has a white spot under her chin.

I'm intrigued by her name, Clawdia, which implies sharp claws. I hope she doesn't use them too much in the house!
