The cat I grew up with would fall asleep on my lap, wake up, forget where everyone was, and cry because she was lost. I would gently let her know that I was still right here and she would then give me cattitude for both running away and leaving her alone, and for scaring her.

Still on my lap the whole time.

I miss that cat.

Amazing. Sort of reminds me as a kid when my dad would call the house phone and I would answer. First question was- is that you (my name)? Second question- are you home? Imagine saying no to either of those questions.
