Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2004Harvey is vocal
Apparently it is of vital importance that Harvey yell at me a lot, then run over and eat some of his food. No, I don't understand either. Perhaps, lacking currency to leave as evidence of his satisfaction with your service, he is voicing his compliments to the chef........? : Apparently it is of vital importance that Harvey yell at me a lot, then run : over and eat some of his food. : : No, I don't understand either. > Perhaps, lacking currency to leave as evidence of his satisfaction with your > service, he is voicing his compliments to the chef........?

He is telling you that you have made him wait much to long -- that the bowl should be full at all times! >Apparently it is of vital importance that Harvey yell at me a lot, then run >over and eat some of his food. My oldest boy, a huge Russian Blue with a (count em) fourteen inch tail, has a similar behavior. We feed soft cat food in small portions several times a day and have crunchies out all the time. Before he will eat crunchies, my Smoky wants you to 'touch' them. He will let out these long "ooowwww"s till one of us follows him to the crunchie spot, fluffs up his crunchies, and tells him what a good boy he is. >No, I don't understand either. I don't even try. Regards and Purrs, O J O J <OJTB@pacbell.net> had some very interesting things to say about Re: Harvey is vocal: >Before he will eat crunchies, my Smoky wants you to 'touch' them.

He'll also at times insist that I pet him to get him to start eating his evening dose of canned food.

He wants me to handle the food in the automatic feeder (sometimes it gets hung up inside) and then pet him while he eats. Double the pleasure! ;-) CATherine > >O J <OJTB@pacbell.net> had some very interesting things to say about > >Re: Harvey is vocal: [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > CATherine Mike likes me to tap the bowl so that my fingernail makes the little ringy noise and say "here you go," and then stand and watch while he starts eating. Once he's had a bite or two, I can leave. Silly cat. :-) ------ Krista > > >O J <OJTB@pacbell.net> had some very interesting things to say about > > >Re: Harvey is vocal: [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > ------ > Krista Speaking of petting and eating Harvey will jump onto the bathroom counter plop his self down wait ever so patiently until you turn on the water in the sink so he can enjoy a drink. Yet no matter how long he has waited for you to come in and appease him he won't begin drinking until you pet and stroke him reassurring him that yes it is okay to lap up the water from the facuet. So not only does he get A. the treat of drinking out of the bathroom sink and B. having his human servants at his beck and call (you have to stand there and wait for him to finish [witch could take anywhere from 3 seconds to 10 mins] so that you can turn off the water) but C. he also gets in a petting session. Yet I can't complain because I'm the one who loves to spoil him. P.S. I'm Harveys Mommy and I miss him something fierce. He is being well taken care of by his Uncle in Florida until me and my Fiance can drive down and pick him up and bring him to live with us in Virgina. Hopefully it will be just after Easter. Huh. No wonder Harvey's so vocal....he misses his meowmie at dinnertime. : > > >O J <OJTB@pacbell.net> had some very interesting things to say about : > > >Re: Harvey is vocal: [quoted text clipped - 37 lines] : drive down and pick him up and bring him to live with us in Virgina. : Hopefully it will be just after Easter. > Speaking of petting and eating Harvey will jump onto the bathroom > counter plop his self down wait ever so patiently until you turn on [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > drive down and pick him up and bring him to live with us in Virgina. > Hopefully it will be just after Easter. Hello, Harvey's mom! If Harvey won't be living with Lots42 any more, I do hope you will post to this group to tell us about him. We need to keep up to date on Harvey; he sounds like a darling. :-) ------ Krista Whose Mike does the bathroom sink thing too > Hello, Harvey's mom!

I just end up turning it on or I find him at an activated faucet 'cuz he's bothered my mom enough. I have shown him that water can OMG be put into containers and placed on the floor Signature"Oh, trusty soda machine!

They'd be honorary cats, and not the only ones in this ng. My Mike likes the sink water too, and utterly disdains his water bowl **unless** I put a camellia in it. He loves camellia water. Maybe he and Harvey are secretly related. ------ Krista >My Mike likes the sink water too, and utterly disdains his water bowl >**unless** I put a camellia in it. He loves camellia water.

A few years ago I gave up and started sticking one in his water bowl every day. They are almost finished blooming for this year, though - poor Mikey! He'll have to go back to just having a couple of grapes smooshed and plopped in his water whenever he hollers for them. This is *not* a spoiled kitty. Not at all. ------ Krista |
