Our cat Festus seems to have this compulsive need to jump on shoulders (me and my husband - not our daughter, fortunately). When the mood strikes him, he will literally follow us around the house until we let him jump up (or he'll just surprise us at times). He'll sit up there for a minute - sometimes content, but sometimes he'll just spring off our shoulders and run like a bat out of hell around the house. Why does he do this? It's one of his endearing quirks, but of course it's been painful at times (esp. in the summer when we're wearing light clothing and his claws dig in).
Just curious if anyone else has a kitty who does this and if you have any insight re: why they do it?
