Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2006Toilet bowl training
Calico has been pretty standoffish since I pushed all those pills down her throat and shaved some mats off her. So in the middle of the night when I go to the bathroom, is when she is friendliest - I've never done anything to her then! She will rub up against me and I finally decided to start picking her up and socializing the being. She is taking to it very well. I sit on the toilet and hold her. She purrs and for a few minutes we get in some decent bonding time. She is getting better about how long she will be held and now she is jumping on me in the living room and bedroom, so it must be working! It is nice to see her come back after being so sick when I first got her. She really is doing well. As a friend of mine pointed out, the food is good, the slave is well trained, the neighbors (other cats) are mellow and easy to get along with, the litter boxes are kept clean, and I give out drugs (catnip) on a routine basis. What's not to like? She even has her own personal bed in the bathtub - her favorite place to hangout.

You better be careful...Tyche doesn't like it when anyone is in the Chamber of Secrets (bathroom) without her supervision! Who KNOWS what secret things might be happening in there?! --Fil >> Calico has been pretty standoffish since I pushed all those pills >> down her throat and shaved some mats off her.

Kitty has never bothered about this but he takes bathroom duties extremely seriously. I only have to nip up the stairs to visit the bathroom and he appears up there to encourage me and wrap himself round my legs. Just in case I can't perform without him ;-) He's an awful worrier. He doesn't seem to trust me at all to be sensible. He comes down the garden with me every day when I feed the chickens. "don't get on that ladder again, you fell off it!" Bless his little cotton socks. Tweed > If Boyfie is in the house at the time, no. Kitty has never bothered > about this but he takes bathroom duties extremely seriously.

That sounds so nice, as opposed to Oscar, who stretches out at the top of the stairs and tries to grab at me and trip me as I pass her.

Several time Rusty almost tripped me on his race to his food bowl. Winnie >> If Boyfie is in the house at the time, no.

If KFC could be bothered to rise from the fireside, this sounds like something she might like to do. It would amuse her. I'm sure there are others on this group who have a nice cat like Boyfriend. He has no temper at all and is always cheerful, he greets me in the morning when I get up like a long lost friend. He needs to supervise everything I do and always helps down the garden with the poultry every morning and evening. He's always polite. "Would it be ok if I get on your knee?" and he waits until I say yes. Then he jumps up and wants lots of belly rubs on his spotty tummy. If he ever scratched or bit me I'd know he had a brain tumour. He does not know how to scratch or bite his meowmie and I know he never would. He is a shy gentle cat and I nearly took him to a rescue place because I didn't want him!

Miranda's favourite place to be held is when I'm sitting on the toilet. She doesn't stay in my lap anywhere else these days (quite a change from her first months with me, when she was *always* on me). SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.
