Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / February 2008Gifts from the Kitty
I have a 6 year old indoor neutered male. Whenever I go away - for an hour or two even - and come home, he leaves his little puff ball by the door. What does this mean??? Is this like the outside kitties do with real mice??? My kitty before him, also a male, had a stuffed rat that he would leave in the bedroom hallway for me when I was out. Do your kitties do this too? Sharon >I have a 6 year old indoor neutered male.

You are something he respects and loves this is a honor for them to do this My spirit always did this before he passed away. He used to make a certain meow when he had it in his mouth. he used to bring it to me for a treat. God how I miss him Yes, he does make a funny little noise when he has this in his mouth! Aw..... so cute. I am so sorry about your loss, Matthew. They are all such special creatures, aren't they? > >I have a 6 year old indoor neutered male. �Whenever I go away - for an > > hour or two even - and come home, he leaves his little puff ball by [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > meow when he had it in his mouth. �he used to bring it to me for a treat. > God how I miss him > I have a 6 year old indoor neutered male.

Matt is right; they love you and that's their way of showing you - bringing sustenance to the loved one (you). FYI back in the 60's, before I adopted an "indoors only" attitude, grey tabby Toopy would quickly whip onto her back when mockingbirds and blue jays would "buzz" her and snatch out fur from her tail to put in their nests....then grab the bird and enjoy an avian feast (albeit raw)....I would come home from work and find bird feet on my doorstep. I took it as it was given - a gift of love. Besides, I don't like birds at all; exception owls. >I have a 6 year old indoor neutered male.

So I once awakened with five drinking straws on my bed. Another day, he dragged his feather wand (he likes to drag that around the house) onto the bed.

If their dry food bowls are empty, they leave fuzzy pipe cleaner toys in them...and cat toys in our bed. When I had to scold Pookie, a while back, for getting up on my nightstand and throwing things off, for attention in the middle of the night, I did like Cat Fancy Magazine said to do about disciplining a cat, by giving Pooks a flick on his ear and saying NO!!...that didn't work, so I used the other method, I gently tapped the end of his nose and said NO!! Get down!!..what did he do?? He got mad at me and went into my bathroom and started slamming the lower cupboard doors loudly. LOL.. Now, I just have to threaten him with a spray bottle if he misbehaves;) He's the one who loves to eat cellophane...wierdo!! But he's such a love, it's hard to get mad at him any more:) Pookie was right by Mutt when Mutt passed on to The Bridge last December. Meows Kyla > He's the one who loves to eat cellophane...wierdo!! Not weird at all both Fugazi and Isis (Both RB) did it all the time, they seemed to use it rather than grass although kitty grass was on offer because they'd have a marathon cellophane chewing session and then throw up Dunzi also sometimes chews cellophane Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs "Lesley" < On Feb 5, 12:58 pm, "Kyla =^..^=" > He's the one who loves to eat cellophane...wierdo!!

They had to be the low-density type (the heavier softer stuff that doesn't rustle) and white was the tastiest colour. Sometimes this was because whe was thirsty, sometimes it seemed to be just because bags are yummy. I used to chew the edge of my sheets in bed when I was a kid and liked sucking slightly soapy wet flannels. So maybe we were just kindred spirits and she was lucky enough to live in a less deprived age than my polythene-bag-free childhood. ==== j a c k at c a m p i n . m e . u k === <http://www.campin.me.uk> ==== Jack Campin, 11 Third St, Newtongrange EH22 4PU, Scotland == mob 07800 739 557 CD-ROMs and free stuff: Scottish music, food intolerance, and Mac logic fonts |
