Where Did Tiger Learn to Geiger?

Tiger is such an amazingly affectionate cat for being formerly feral. In bed awhile ago at night she decided to flop next to me with her head against my head, face or ear, then purr herself to sleep. Unfortunately, I cannot sleep with this position due to the fact that her purr is loud and like a Geiger counter - rapid, staccato sounds - sounding off near my ear. (her purr is not the soft, deep, smooth, mellow kind)

I wish I had a photo of her doing this (she's nuzzling while I'm smiling) but I never think to bring my cell phone to bed! I let her stay laying on me for awhile before I encourage her to move to another location on the bed. When I think of how she initiated this move on her own, and also to nuzzle the side of her face against mine every so often, is so endearing that it is so difficult to decide to move her away. I am so touched by this show of affection!!

That sounds just like the purr that Flynn wakes me with at 3am, then 4am, and so on.

It is just so rewarding when the feral kitties trust you enough to snuggle with you. I have one too that all of a sudden decided to come in the house and spend some time. He doesn't stay all the time but he will spend the night. Thanks for visiting our blog.
