MJG ----- nice description!! Including the crossed paws hehe.
It was ultra odd to see her foot/arm sticking up on an angle away from the box (and staying like that) at about 30 to 40 degrees while she was napping like that hehehehe.

They can be so uncaring sometimes, and an accident happens so fast...
I have to keep the bathroom closed at all times, because one of the cats jumps on the counter-top to drink in the sink. Doesn't matter if there's something in the way.
Haha, does she actually keep an eye and go after potential threat? She looks like she's sleeping most of the time!

MFN ----- know just what you mean hehehe. Cats can really get up to things indoors! Gingercat isn't allowed indoors normally, but occasionally I allow her to enter into the laundry and bathroom area - with door leading to the rest of the house closed.
Once she comes in, she usually immediately sits on the foot drying material mat in the bathroom. That's hers hahaha. She 'owns' it. Actually, the very first time she came in, she owned that one - and lay on it immediately, then proceeded to use her claws on it - the putting the claws in, and making the popping sounds as she lifts up her front feet ----- not sure what she is doing, maybe removing old claw nail bits from claws. Sometimes she starts biting and attacking that mat (playfully only), and rolling/twisting around on it ..... wrestling with that floor mat.
Other times, I pick her up by her under-arms so that her head is facing the front (so that she can see), and walk her around the house (downstairs only). Her hind legs and tail just dangle (due to gravity) when I hold her like this.
She has a very interesting behaviour ----- where when I'm doing this, and taking her around the house --- she becomes completely relaxed and fully engaged hahaha.
It's as if her brain is becoming a hard drive, and she focuses purely on taking as much information as she sees when on the short tour. Apparently, I've been told that the end of her tail does relaxed cyclic little swishes while she gets the tour - every time. It's sort of meaning she's enjoying it hahaha.
On a few of times only, she did actually run into the house when we had the front door or back door open for too long ----- and she knows EXACTLY where to run once she gets inside!!!
But very interestingly - she doesn't hide and evade catching her (well, not for too long anyway) ------ she may scramble for a short time to evade temporarily --- for half a minute or so ----- but will never evade for much longer than that (from being caught that is hehehe). I don't know who her previous owner was, or whether she has just got her own interesting nice friendly behaviour. Definitely a good cat this one.
She's not a very big cat too. Not tiny as well ------ maybe medium size.
If I get the chance later, I'll take a video of gingercat jumping over that balanced dish hehehehe. She does that lots of times in order to either get to the vanilla orchid foam box, or to get from that box to the other side. She has never knocked that tray over. It surprises myself too!
MFN ---- her supe or boss nick name is only because she keeps an eye on me when I'm there, while watering the orchid. She sometimes just focuses on the watering wand spraying the water into the pots. Not sure what she is thinking though ----- maybe just curious about what it is I'm doing hahaha.
