Good morning from Owen

When Owen, our medically dramatic but lovable cat, wakes up enough in the morning to find me in the study/den this is how he greets me:

He comes in, gives me a little yell (due to one of his medical dramas he can't hear and therefore can't meow properly), then digs his claws into my leg so that I will pet him. Sometimes he stays there and pats (with claws) my elbow until I pet him again. On occasion he desires a little more attention and decides to pull himself up into my lap. Due to the same drama that left him deaf, he's unable to jump up higher than a foot. He's got strong front legs though and if he can dig his claws in then he'll attempt a climb. We love him, but often wish his claws were less sharp.
