My main memory of that topic is a teacher going out of his way to explain why the Nazis did it with a Roald Dahl-esque attitude. Even at the time it was hair-raising stuff.

Betty and Boba both like to sit in the crook of my arm. Which is ok with Boba, but Betty weighs as much as a fucking Labrador…

I thinks she sees me as a fellow cat, and would find it weird to climb on me. This is her right now, squidged against my left leg.

It took Mia about four years before she would sit for more than a minute. But, once she got used to it, she'd sit for hours. 🙂

Pickle is a chest cat. You lie down, he's right there, purring on your torso. You sit down, he's no interest. Basically, he's very affectionate if *he* can look down on *you*, but not if it's the other way around.
Extremely 'on brand', now that I see it written down.

In battle however a single flash from a pistol would be enough to wipe out any advantage it gave.
