Ah, the cat is a member of the Feline Anti-Literary Society (FALS).  Its 
member interpose themselves between humans and any type of reading 
matter.  My two cats (and all previous co-habitating cats) are members 
in good standing.  Tehy get between myself and book, tablets, computer 
screens,  etc. as well as walking across keyboards.  Shadow is a 20 lb + 
cat without having any Maine Coon in him, just fat.

He wasn't 20 pounds when he came in from the back yard following my 
daughter.  He is grey (with a little bit of white) and he was following 
(shadowing?) my daughter and her friend around the yard for weeks.

A cat is the center of the Universe.  It doesn't have pangs of regret or 
remorse.  I recommend:  mv cat >/dev/null

Mr. Potay-Toes is a cuddler, and I don't have the heart to turn him 
away. It's just as well. He weighs somewhere around 25 pounds and has 28 
claw-laden toes. I've never had a dispute with him, but I suspect he 
would best me in armed combat if it came to that.

On the other hand, he has a fine temperament and is one of the few cats 
I've known who enjoys a bath followed by a hair dryer. Though he's large 
he's always careful to avoid upsetting items on the window sill or book 
shelf and has a dainty touch when seating himself on a person. He's 
quite civilized, if a bit of a bother around a keyboard.

He spends more time on my lap in our condo than he does in his mistress' 
condo. My wife says it's because I'm large and warm. It's possible that 
cats view humans as heated furniture.

Those of us who are fortunate enough to know cats must be prepared to 
accept an occasional inconvenience in exchange for the privilege.
