Mia the kitten log.

This cat has been figuring out ways to sit on my lap in office chairs since I adopted her in college. She was tiny then and sharing lap space wasn’t too big a deal. Mia is a little heavier now and occasionally makes my legs cramp. So when she no longer cares for me squirming around she either finds another chair or does something like this:
