Does Alice have a sixth Sense?

It may just be the weather, but I am starting to suspect that Alice, the oldest of our three cats, knows the Short Stranger will be arriving soon. Never I seen her so attached to me and my lap. That's not to say that Alice doesn't love her owners, it's just that she's...well...not the kind of cat that loves to cuddle. She's far more comfortable lounging on the floor, as seen above, or in a distant corner where she can watch us from afar.

But for the past four days she's made sure to snuggle right up against my belly, leaving Mike in the cold across the room. I've decided to take this as a positive sign. Hopefully she'll be as fond of the Short Stranger ex-utero as she is now!
