Pomeroy will not tolerate any "touching" contact with me (except when I hace icecream), but will cuddle upto my wife.

The wife sits on my lap when this lot let her!!

Ooh I forgot about the 'sit down' toliet visits. Keeps will sit on your lap then but at no other time. We do call him the toliet monitor though as he always has to go to the toilet with us, even during the night he'll get up all bleary eyed.

Larry's way of saying 'good morning' is to take a running jump onto my lap in the bathroom. Ecstatic purring and face-butts until you get pins & needles, and a few swipes at the loo roll, just for a laugh. I have to heave him off rather firmly if I want to actually start the day!

Aren't they brilliant?
