CatLap

The condition in which your (or someone else's) cat settles into your lap, and you can no longer move. It's a serious condition, resulting in being unable to go to the washroom or get your own beverages until the condition is resolved (the cat gets up and moves).

I currently have CatLap, and haven't been able to do anything for hours. Maybe she'll move soon? Send coffee.

Catwampus is usually preceded by the words "run", "went", "slightly", or "kinda".

Origin: From the word Wampus, a Tennessee and Kentucky hillbilly slang name for the legendary mountain lion or wildcat. Wildcats run fast with their hind legs very offset to one side from their front legs. They are often afraid of humans and therefore are often viewed from the rear as they are running away.

Also spelled: cat'wampus, cat-wampus, cattywampus, catawampus, caddywampus, catawompas, caddywhampus, catterwampus, catterwhompus.
