How many of you have your cats providing CAT assistance while you produce your transcripts???  :-)

No cats, but I have a love bird who loves to sing and gets louder and louder until I tell him "Pretty Charlie," then that starts my dog barking because she feels left out.  My dog sleeps at my feet snoring.  When I have let my bird out to fly, he will land on my hands and peck at them, so he has to go back in his cage.

LOL.

One cat sits with me quite a bit; the other glares at me from his favorite chair & springs into action when I get up because he's sure I'm going into the kitchen to feed him.

Back in the early '90s we used to do our own production, and one of the reporters had a big hairy dog.  I remember a client complaining loudly about the dog hair in his transcript.  LOL.

I remember another time a reporter had an appeal transcript laying in her open briefcase, and her cat used it as a litter box!  That was back in the day when a typist typed everything too!

LOL, LOL, LOL. Animals have the freedom of expression we mere humans must suppress to survive.    -    pinksteno 2/23/2012 5:35:18 PM | Flag

One cat, Mac, all black with beautiful yellow eyes.  He loves to sit on things or in things ... on my printer, in my rolly bag.  Loves to walk across my laptop keyboard ... oh, no, there he goes ... now asdfghjkl;'

LOL. My rescue kitty loves my old laptop carrier as his bed. I bought him a regular cat bed - he won't go near it. Seriously, someone ought to make cat beds out of luggage material. :D    -    IheartMultiCopy 2/22/2012 3:05:04 PM | Flag
Exactly. We have our real luggage in the basement, and if we can't find Mac upstairs, he's nestled in one of them.    -    fstfngrs 2/22/2012 5:14:59 PM | Flag

Cute stories, for sure!!

My cat is such a trouble maker that I have to gate off my office so as to not let him in.  I think he thinks he's a dog because he'll chew on anything and everything!  He seems to love chewing the computer cables.  One time I accidently left my headphones out and he chewed right through the wire!!  Ahhhh!   Live & learn!  :)

I have one cat that sits in my lap while I'm editing and another one who loves to lay on top of exhibits!

LOL on your answers!  An attorney firm has resident cats.  Years ago while on an arbitration assignment held at the law office, like IHeartMultiCopy's story, I had one of their cats urinate in my opened roll-along luggage.  I did not hold blame; I could see how it happened.  It was rectangular and just the right size!  The firm bought me a new roll-along!!!!  When the attorneys involved and I are together, they like to relate that story to the arbitrators hearing their other cases! 

I don't have any attorneys that have resident cats; wish I did. However, I was once at a depo and the attorney had a huge golden retriever who sat on my feet during the entire depo ... best depo I ever had!!    -    fstfngrs 2/23/2012 6:18:15 AM | Flag
What a cozy leg warmer. Attorneys could learn from that.    -    pinksteno 2/23/2012 5:36:37 PM | Flag

my cat is always trying to jump in my lap and walk on my keyboard, and the other one is always wanting to go out and come back in, go out and come back in ..... sorry, couldn`t help it ;-)

Me too. Mine just gave me a neck massage while perched on the back of my office chair and then he promptly launched himself onto the keyboard.

I put a screen door leading into the room where I have my computer. My cat Carl spends a lot of time hooked to it when I`m in that room!

Funny! I just posted a picture this week of my cat sitting staring at a transcript in my CAT software. She`s my new proofreader. ;)

As we speak, he`s petting my laptop and purring. Sweet kitty.

Mine likes to bat at the screen while I`m working. Sometimes it`s hard to see around her, she gets so into her work.
