Submitting to petting
Floppy (Avery) decides that one of her pet humans is worth of petting her head.
Notice that she doesn't look all that happy about it. Clearly I'm living on her sufferance at the moment this picture is taken, and the moment I stop petting her, my usefulness to her is ended. Or she might just get up and leave. It's hard to tell with her some times-- unlike Seamus, who loves being petted, instead of just merely tolerating all of these humans who share his space.
About the only real plus side is that when she's in this position, you get a split second of warning before she gets up and charges the camera.
