I have, for a while, occasionally lamented that I am not very cuddly. Hugs are awkward, and the snuggles I get are mainly virtual online ones.

Turns out that I can be plenty cuddly... if you're the right size.

...I have just spent the last hour with a kitty snoozing on me. I was tilted back, and she started up in a long line with her butt on my thighs (tail between my legs and brushing against my shins when it twitched) and her chin on her front paws on my breastbone; and she ended up sprawled in a long C shape with her hindquarters still pretty much in the same place but her hind legs stretched allll the way out so that they hung past my left hip, and her spine curved to wedge against my right hand, and her head below my right breast, one front leg tucked up underneath her and the other stretched across my ribcage like she was hugging me; and all the while looking pretty damn comfortable.

(Unfortunately my left arm was going numb [which is unfortunately common if I stay tilted back for too long], as was my right thigh, and my right wrist was starting to get achy from the feline pressure against it, so I had to dislodge her nice warm furry snuggly self onto the couch. Where she is now curled up in a kitty frisbee.)

Oh, cats love reclining humans, and making themselves looooooong all along the human. They are very good at expanding to fill the available space. *g*
