Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2007Quinn takes the plunge
One of Quinn's favorite games is mock fear, e.g. seeing something or somebody and, tail up, taking off at full speed. Well, this morning when I opened the backdoor he did just that, except he failed to remember he was sitting by the pool and in he plunged, he was climbing out by the time I heard the splash and slunk off in embarassment befpre I could do anything. That's one of my cliches, that every cat falls in the pool, just as every cat gets locked in the garage eventually. It doesn't really happen to everyone of them but it seems to. Quinn's back in the house now, licking himself dry, Tao's next, I figure, because he likes to walk/run the narrow burm between the pool and the garage.

Norm All of the cats that I have had over the years have loved to lean way over and drink out of the bathtub. At some point, each of them has slipped and fallen into the bathwater, resulting in the cat dashing away from the tub. Horrors! I'm all wet!  SignatureJohn F.

It's happened to all my cats too. Usually just once :) I call it the baptism. Caroline S. >All of the cats that I have had over the years have loved to lean way >over and drink out of the bathtub.

Fugazi (RB) once when playing as a kitten jumped over the side of the bath tub without realising that I had just filled the bath. I swear she jumped backwards without touching it! She simply reversed herself in mid air, it looked like a film being wound backwards Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs > One of Quinn's favorite games is mock fear, e.g. seeing something or > somebody and, tail up, taking off at full speed.

Norm Awww. poor lad. How absolutely embarrassing for him. I suppose he is saying "I mean to do that" ?
