I can't sit on the couch anymore without one (or both) of these goobers requesting a blanket fort. If they're desperate enough for a fix they'll even share (programming.dev)

I would recommend everyone try this. Just sit down, bend your knees, throw a blanket over, and show them the entrance. Just be warned they will not leave unless you make them

I thought my cat was strange for this same behavior. I should have known he wasn't the only one. He will borrow under the blanket himself if I don't have an entrance for him. Or paw at my leg until I make him one.

Yes exactly this. It burns my heart strings when they do it too

Do me a favor and give them a Dutch oven for me

My cat won't lie on\between the legs, unless I have a blanket on me, so she can lay in top of it XD

This also evolves into little paws poking you in the face at 2 am until you let them under the duvet.

I have one of those perches that mounts on a window with suction cups, and sometimes I close the curtains over it. My cats absolutely love hanging out in the little "tent" it creates. They don't ever cuddle with each other, but I've caught them peacefully hanging out in the "tent" together.
