Actually, cats seem to pick up on who's avoiding them, and dash straight for that person's lap once it's created. This makes for a very interesting time visiting a house with cats when you're allergic. And the more you don't want the cat (e.g., if you are not the only allergic guest, just the *more* allergic guest), the more the cat wants you. At least, this has been my experience with more cats than not. Julia who once tossed a kitten halfway across the room three times before the kitten understood that stepping on this new person's lap was going to result in finding itself in another spot awfully quick; it gave up after the fourth throw (but what do you expect from a kitten named Tequila?) _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
