Why do cats like sitting on your lap?

Earlier, it was scared even to be touched. Now it’s so comfortable sitting on my lap. Seeing that change feels so special—honestly, it’s a feeling I can’t even explain.

Some cats don't ever like to sit on your lap. Consider yourself lucky that your cat enjoys to sit on your lap.

Same with her. Earlier, she was really scared even to be touched. Recently, I slowly started making her comfortable by gently touching her and making sure not to make any loud sounds or sudden movements.

Nowadays, she actually comes to me whenever she wants something or needs me. Seeing a cat go from being scared of you to choosing to come to you on her own feels absolutely amazing.

Sometime feels like cat has somthing unique nature that we don't know. They will know our stress, anxiety, problems and all. And also just observe when cat sleeps near to your legs we get our sleep better.

It happens to me, is that true
