Working at home, sitting in my office chair. Emma comes in, gives me a quick tail rub around the legs, I reach down and pet her once, and she walks out.

She does this a few times a day. I'm not sure if she's reassuring me, or herself. I guess it doesn't really matter. ❤️

You’re very lucky!

I usually get a disapproving look and some trash talk once or twice a day.

I read that when a cat squints at you, it actually means they trust you, i.e. they don't have to stay alert around you.

Ah yes the cat 'i love you'. No, these are more . . mmmm haughty looks. Followed by some very pointed meyowling.
