Update - Last Evening Another First

I've been playing with the two after supper each night and getting pets. But it's been so hot several times I just went and sat on the chaise lounge in the shade instead and coaxed Chinny up beside me for pets. She will come up and even got completely on my lap once, but when I stop petting she leaves.

Last night Chinny just hopped right up without any coaxing, got some pets then when I stopped petting curled up on my lap. She's not a small cat and my lap really isn't big enough but when she slipped off she stayed by my side on the chair and just lay with me.

This is a big step, for her to jump up to be beside me without me coaxing her. She is still very skittish of any sudden moves I make but now I can turn the pages of a book and read without her being frightened and running off.
