These kittens literally worship the ground I walk on.

I can't so much as go to the bathroom without the whole crowd following me in and trying to get me to pet them, hug them, put them on my lap.

On the one hand, this is great. I love cats! On the other hand, omgprivacyplz! (And just try having some, uh, private alone adult time! When the kitten jumps on the intriguing moving thing under your blanket it's a real moodkiller, let me tell you.)

LOL! XD I know it's not really that funny at the time, but... XD

And hey, at least you know they really adore you. ;) Being that they're cats, I'd take it as a huge compliment (although, heheh, yeah, if they would just learn to let you have at least a few minutes out of the day to yourself.) ;)

Cats usually like me. And really, I don't know where that silly story about cats being antisocial came from. They're not dogs, but I never have seen that cats truly dislike company.

We call that phenomenon "Katzenpantzen."

Because Tanty (her full name is La Plume De Ma Tante, due to her excessively plumy tail) actually rushes over when she hears the bathroom door open in order to climb into pants once they're on the floor and demand the pettins. You have to be quick about closing the door to actually get privacy.

Oh, god, it's EVERYWHERE though. It's great, because I can easily herd these kittens (and people think that's hard!) by doing nothing more than standing at the foot of the stairs and calling "Come on, guys! Let's go down now!" to them, but it's awful because they just want to be with me ALL THE TIME. And then I feel guilty when I shove them off my bed. (Not very guilty. I mostly do that if they start chewing on the laptop cord.)

*sniggering* Have you read Tomato Nation's screed on the things Little Joe eats, including electric cords? (http://tomatonation.com/stories-true-and-otherwise/so-your-cat-has-ass-breath/)
