lap cats
Snuggly sitting companions
Lap cats are cats that enjoy sitting on a person's lap, typically calm and affectionate breeds or individual cats that seek physical closeness with their owners.
The term distinguishes cuddly, sedentary cats from more aloof or energetic ones: Maine Coons make excellent lap cats.
Whether a cat is a lap cat often matters more to prospective owners than breed or appearance.
