Kitty http://gallery.leica-users.org/Zenis-efforts/kittynikkor won't 
get on the desk...instead she sits behind me, out of reach, purring 
loudly.  If this doesn't elicit the desired response, she will start to 
squeak/high pitch mew.  If THAT doesn't work, she will come put her 
paws on my leg and fuss at me.  When I get up, we had for the kitchen 
(with the same turning round to look at me trick) where I stroke her 
while she eats.  About five minutes of this, she's happy for another 
hour...whereupon we repeat the routine.

On the other hand, Port 
http://gallery.leica-users.org/Zenis-efforts/countersquirt will park 
himself between me and the keyboard for attention...then run amok if I 
don't play with him.  Nutter!

Methinks it's the charmingness of this sort of behaviour that lets them 
wheedles their way into our hearts and prompts all the photographs we 
take of them.

Yes we are :)
