My cat has been super snuggly lately

And I just don't know why. I can't so much as fidget in bed a little without her solicitously coming up and purring at me. "Are you all right? Do you want to snuggle me? I was curled up right next to you, but I'm going to just bump my forehead against your face so you can kiss it. I know you love kissing my forehead! You haven't kissed my forehead yet. I'll just leave it there for a while until you do. Great, now, let's hug! Purr, purr, purr!"

And I love my cat, I do, but I *also* love being able to sometimes stretch my legs out without kicking her off the bed. (Because then she comes up and mrowps at me and tries to snuggle me and I feel super guilty.)
