Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / August 2007Vino huffs
I've noticed that when Vino gets impatient, he makes the strangest noise. It's kind of a nasal exhalation combined with a huff. He often does it when he gets on my chest and meatloafs while I watch TV but I don't pet him. And just now, I was eating a bowl of split pea soup, which he loves. He got up on the desk and tried to edge his way closer and closer to the bowl. But I kept pushing him away. So finally he sat on the other side of me, facing the bowl and huffed like that! It was totally obvious that he was showing his displeasure. But he waited until I was done and so I gave him the bowl to lick out. No more huffs after that.

She always does when I'm eating something she knows she can't have. It's a sort of combination between a huff and a snort. You'd think she is a cow or a horse or something.

It's kind of a nasal exhalation combined with a huff.//// It's actually a kitty-cat swear word, similar to FCUK. Try doing it back to him. The look of sheer disgust you'll get is priceless! HRFL does it when he's miffed about something. Helen M >> I've noticed that when Vino gets impatient, he makes the strangest >> noise.

Check out pictures of Vino at: http://picasaweb.google.com/badwilson Heh...all three of mine do that from time to time... Helen's right, it's a cat swear. Katie does it when I've been trying to comb her, or pick her up, or make her do *anything* that wasn't already in her plans to do anyway. Hazard does it when I'm putting him down after a petting session. Tripper's the one that's most likely to do it when I've denied him a sample of whatever I'm eating at the moment. And the look at me funny when I do it back, but sometimes it gets Katie to cooperate. If I huff when she stalls, sometimes she'll give me a look, and then waddle her furry little butt out of the way. The look is amusing...sort of a disbelief coupled with "hey, that's *our* phrase"... Eh...they keep me guessing, I think once in a while I'm allowed to make them guess....;) Purrs- Chris and the Fairfax Fur Factory > I've noticed that when Vino gets impatient, he makes the strangest > noise.
