I was working on the computer last night and Scout, being the little computer obsessed freak that she is, leaned over and showed her happiness by attempting to burrow her head into the top of my arm. I scratched her ears a bit and went back to what I was working on, and Scout took a step forward and started licking me. On my face.
She licked the top of my cheek, the corner of my eye, my eyebrow, and my forehead. Her tongue, like all cat tongues, feels like sandpaper so it wasn't exactly a comfortable thing being licked by her, but my heart was melting at the thought of Scout wanting to groom me so I didn't have the heart to pull away. Until she decided to lick my eyelid. I could feel the scratchyness on my eye and I couldn't stop myself from laughing at the absurdity of what was going on. Scout was startled and sat down a foot away to stare at me and ponder why on earth I would ever want to pull away from a grooming.
The whole process was repeated about half an hour later - the working on the computer, the creeping closer, the licking my face, and my laughing when she got around to grooming my eye. Sigh. She's such a sweet cat. WhenI think of her my heart is happy.
