Does anyone else's cat sit on their chest when they read?

My cat only wants to cuddle when I am reading. Any other time of day when I want to love her she ignores me, but the second I break out a book she is all over me. I can try and shove her away, sure, but she is right back on my chest in ten seconds!

Hehe. My cat does the same, but I don't mind. It's cute. I'd gladly sacrifice a small amount of reading time for cuddles

It seems that they only want affection when you choose something else over them, otherwise they are quite content ignoring their humans. I guess it is not all the time, but it does happen quite a lot.

My cat never loves me more than when she's hungry

Indeed! Sometimes I'll let her sniff a bit of what I'm eating and if she likes it I'll give her some. So far I've discovered that she likes Heinz beans, peas, tomato ketchup, grapes and chicken soup

You should try potato chips. My cat loves them!

I really wish I had a cat! I used to have a cat when I still lived at home with my parents... but now I am all alone... my cat used to sit on my bed while I sat on the floor in front of the bed and read... and he would chew on my hair.

We all know that cat (like, every single one of them) who wants to sit right on the book. Am I right or am I right?

You are right.
They like to sit on remote controls too oddly.

That's just because lap is in the name.
They sit on lapdogs too!
