My cat likes to sit on the desk in the little space between my pen tablet and the brick size external hard drive I use, and nod off to sleep while I work.

Yesterday she did this peacefully for hours until out of nowhere, I assume because of a bad dream maybe, she woke up suddenly by jumping in to the air knocking over the expensive hard drive I was working off of and then also, upon seeming to realize she wasn't comfortably laying on the desk anymore but instead in the midst of a rapid descent towards it from a height, proceeded to kick every limb in a panic and also me in the process. Good times.

For the record, the hard drive is probably warm. if you wanted to ... you might be able to coax the kitty away by providing a warmed bed that was also near by. when I'm cat sitting my neighbor's cat... he likes to be on a stool that I set an old dog bed on. Literally right next to me. Judging my grammar... and/or gaming skills.
