Anyone else have a shoulder cat?

Been her favorite spot since she was a kitten. For a while I thought she’d outgrow it, nope.

I have two!
First is my kitten Maryjane, who jumps up to beg for a can of food, second is the both Miles Morales and Maryjane.
Miles gets on my shoulder to both beg for a can of food and get better access to the houseplants.
- Been having "Meh" day but you and OPs pics made it brighter, thank y'all for these
- Hahahah that’s awesome. My other cat is a very content lap cat, I couldn’t imagine juggling two!
  
  We have five cats total.
  And two yellow labs.
Here she is as a tiny sleepy kitty
Mine just stands on my balls while on my lap and slowly extends his nails. It's his way of telling me it's snack time.
- My lap cat does this when I stop petting him for 3/4’s of a second. :/
There's literally dozens of us
- That’s incredible form for a shoulder cat! I couldn’t imagine mine sitting like that, she stretches out across my shoulders.
  
  She's tiny at full grown. Only weighing about 4 pounds
- What’s that contraption you’re lookin at?
  
  She's watching the 3d printer with me
Lately my cat starts meowing while standing at the shoe dresser. As soon as I go there he tries to climb on my shoulders. I bend over a bit and he climbs on my back and wants me to go around the house. I was enslaved as soon as he entered our home.
- That’s how they getcha. And what are you going to do? Ignore their adorable little mews? They’re DyInG!
I did. One of my cats liked to spend as much time as possible up there as a kitten. Then he grew into a long, muscular, 18-pound beastie, and continued to sit there. It was wonderful!
- They make incredible scarfs in the morning when it’s kinda chilly lol
- I had similar. Quite the workout.
It's all fun and cute until your chilling gaming and then a 10lbs cannonball of fur and claws jumps on your shoulders and scares the everloving shit out of you. Still love it though
- I currently have fairly large claw marks up my back. Worth it. She’s normally pretty careful hahaha
Yeah, but it's not mine. It's a stray that just hops on whenever I'm outside.
- That might even be better. That’s cool that a stray trusts you like that.
Not mine, but I met a shoulder cat at the shelter today. This is him with a shelter volunteer.
Mine don't fit, but they both try just the same.
The younger one uses it as a means to tell me he wants attention or food
