This sounds like a classic case of the cat “marking her territory.” Could it be that the monk was trying to pass off as his own, what was the cat’s work? ;-)

Hope the monk got the rest of his copying better than his drawing of the cat! It looks like a donkey more than a kitty.

Well, Latin and monks are kind of passe’, cats are still around, doing quite well, thank you.

I’ve been an observer of feline behavior all my life. When a cat does this it’s usually personal. This is not the friendly demand for attention of a cat walking across your keyboard. From the cat’s perspective, it was pay back for some perceived or real slight. Makes me wonder what the scribe had done to the cat.
