Boundaries with Cats

Once cats sit on me I cannot get anything done or go anywhere because they are so cute and I don’t want them to feel neglected. What should I do to draw boundaries

This is what I have to do too. Timer set because if I stopped to pet all 5 of my cats and our 2 8 wk old fosters I will never get things done. 5 minutes for each cat during the day and then unlimited love after my day is done

My boyfriend is watching a cat and I love that cat. If she sits on me I'll watch the world burn and not move a muscle. I'm cool with that.

Honestly, you’re lucky to be such a cat-catcher :)I am a bit double-faced towards cats, cause I can’t live with them peacefully, but as I see them on the street, I always react to them positively and engage them with a little convo:) I feel uneasy because of that, kinda double standards of life I spread through the world to cats make me feel a bad person. So you’re a good one indeed! Just enjoy your time together and feel safe 💖

It would be especially difficult to move if they are visiting cats. I often feel the same way with my 2 dogs or my 2 cats. I suggest either… Relax and embrace your time with the cats ~or~ Set a timer. After enjoying the cats company for a specific time, get up a do a task.

I don’t own them they just visit me occasionally and I treasure the time with them a bit too much

You and the cats are getting something positive from your time together.
