Lilith has lived with us since December 2003. I’m sure I’ve mentioned before how standoffish she is, indeed she’s pretty much a sociopath with us.
In recent weeks, she has taken too sitting on Pete’s lap, but only if she is put there. This seems to us to be a huge stride forward, and one which we think is due to the number of cats in the household having diminished; they’re all more relaxed and seem happier.
But imagine my astonishment last night … Pete was just making some tea in the kitchen before we went to bed, when Lilith descended from the arm of the sofa where she normally sits, and climbed onto my lap! And there she stayed for about 20 minutes, until *I* put her off, as I wanted to go to bed.
Wonder if she’ll ever do it again …
