I’ve been sitting on the floor pillow less to use the laptop and more often sitting on a loveseat with it on a chair in front of me

This is totally throwing Badger off because he got used to settling in between my crossed legs and the laptop to get skritched (pretty consistently from like 1:20-1:50 am, actually)

So he’ll just circle around me on the arms or back of the loveseat or stand on the chair behind the laptop and look at me expectantly with one arm raised and curled in the catgirl “nya” pose (it IS real!) which he’s started doing to signal that he’s looking for permission for something

And I’ll pat my lap or either side of me where there’s room but he doesn’t seem to get it, but tonight he finally stepped down from the arm to next to me, and then pretty quickly moved away but I tried to give him plenty of positive reinforcement

He took a while to get used to the floor pillow, too, so hopefully we’ll get there
