Helping!

Kittenpants has started to assist me with my physical therapy. Almost all of it is things that can be done lying down, because I know myself, I still don't trust my hip, and requested horizontal stuff for my program. (In the last two appointments, we've added a supported tiptoes exercise, a supported lunge, and some Shit You're Slouching shoulder exercises as well.)

So when I have woken up enough to start my day, and throw the covers aside and begin rearranging myself in interesting new ways, Yellface comes to investigate. And stands on top of me. And purrs.

She's offended by the clamshell exercise, because that means her standing surface is substantially disrupted.

Yes, if you're going to lie down in interesting positions so she can stand on you, it's really very rude of you to then go and move her standing surface!

Anyway I'm glad your physical therapy is being properly supervised.

What a good personal trainer!

I've been doing clamshells as well, as my glute exercise. So far only with a human trainer, so the cats have not had a chance to help.

Kittenpants believes in weight resistance training, clearly, but only if she gets to be the weight.

my fave cat PT assist is when I am doing spine stretches (ie. roughly the shape of touching toes without the intent) and I guess I have an insufficiently curved and weighted lumbar spine and miss kitten justice ruthie decide to assist by jumping up to my back and taking a little nap.
