This was one of the ways in which I knew that my brother's wife was no good for him, She used to bitch mightily that, in our family, "I have a cat on my lap" wasn't just a cheap excuse to get out of doing anything - it was actually a fully accepted reason for getting other people to do things for you!
Great. I now have this image of a family gathering with enough cats to go around. Everyone is sitting around, while their charring dinner bellows smoke from the kitchen. They are crying out: "I can't get it! I've got a cat on my lap!"
