Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / January 2007Cat Training
Often, when I'm writing on the computer, my wife's tomcat would come up and start circling and rubbing my legs. If I petted him, he'd just continue; if I ignored him, he'd sometimes start urinating. What I wanted, OTOH, was to get him to stop and go away, but without hurting or scaring him. One day, I had a bright idea: As soon as he started, I got up, went to the kitchen, and put food in his dish. That worked like a charm; he followed me out, and stayed there while I returned to my writing. So I've been doing it since. I was quite proud of my solution, for a week. Then I realized that the cat had trained me. > I was quite proud of my solution, for a week. Then I realized that the > cat had trained me. Yor wife is smarter than you deserve.

Mike, it wasn't my *wife* rubbing my legs and trying to urinate on the wall; it was her *cat.* >>>I was quite proud of my solution, for a week. Then I realized that the >>>cat had trained me. [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > Mike, it wasn't my *wife* rubbing my legs and trying to urinate on the > wall; it was her *cat.* I suspect what he meant was that your wife no longer has to feed "her" cat, because YOU do! ;-) > >>>I was quite proud of my solution, for a week. Then I realized that the > >>>cat had trained me. [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > I suspect what he meant was that your wife no longer has to > feed "her" cat, because YOU do! ;-) That makes sense; though it's not really correct. For some reason, the cats in our family (none of them "mine") have always decided to appoint me the Feeder of Cats. Hmmm ... maybe there is some collusion between them and my wife that I don't know about. 8\ >> I was quite proud of my solution, for a week.

At least I was allowed a wife and of course with Tim being a name mostly used for the sprogs of catholics then one is safe to assume you are not married and most certainly therefore one understands you not wanting to mention again your recently confessed "1 inch boyhood" fetish and so have gone back to this, get help Tim I suspect the police are closing in fast. >>Too bad you.. > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > fetish and so have gone back to this, get help Tim I suspect the police > are closing in fast.

At least they didn't get into the normal obscenities. I removed a.p from the headers. "Hey, mom, they followed me home. Can I--?" "No, son, you cannot keep them!"

Yep, that's what they do and you hardly know it. Tweed
