The best way is when you are walking to the barn to feed them, and one is underfoot, scoop it up to your hip and walk fast, they are so surprised you make it to the barn without even a struggle. They want to eat and so behave for a minute anyway. Just like 6 of my 7 cats at my farmhouse.

It's a bit hard to type on the computer when she does it when I'm at home. But watching TV and cradling the cat works OK. :purr: It looks like someone is starting to think about packing! Woo Hoo!
