George has started something new...just recently he has started to lay on his back with all four legs stretched out and with his front leg, he "paws" the air...
Have no idea what he's stretching for but looks adorable doing it! Any thoughts on what he's reaching for?? His tummy is nice and fluffy and is just begging to be scratched but that's the last thing he wants me to do!

He is probably just kneading the air like cats do on soft comfy things that make them comfortable.

I vouch for the latter, considering that is what our felines do best sometimes!!!

I 100% agree with the "driving me nuts" part!! When he wants me to get out of bed, when he sits on top of the refrig and meows (loudly!)... he just looks too cute when he's laying on his back looking all fluffy

Alley always paws the air a lot in front of closets. I think she thinks that is going to somehow open the closet because after doing that for a while she then proceeds to try and open it with her claws.
