Bob, (and everyone else on the list)
Nice psycological profiling on the cat...
I'd like to add; The cat may want attention from a common user of the
keyboard/mouse area. Find the user that the cat likes to be with most.
And, is that the same person that uses the key/mse area most (or
sweaty'r/perfume, etc..).
(snik'r) just couldn't help it.
