~*LiveLoveLaugh*~ - 15 May 2005 19:25 GMT I was hearing a rather loud, playful "yooowwwwl" while I was trimming off dead flowers outside. Since some of the clouds looked rather luminous, I decided to put the sheers down for good and investigate what the yowwwwllls were all about. Last I saw, both Maui and Oscar (the Siamese yowlers) were upstairs in a puddle of sun... and sound asleep.
I come inside and find Maui with Wooly Sock. It's in his mouth and he's strolling through the kitchen. Okay, there's one kitty who is amusing himself quite nicely. Time to look for #2 yowler. I take a step into the den and find Oscar under the rug at the back door. One paw is sticking out towards Wooly Sock#2.
I do believe that I heard *duel* yowls, which is funny because usually one will go see what the other is doing when said yowl comes out!!
I swear, the next time I find myself having too much free time (aka: bored stiff), I'm gonna try rolling on the floor, crawling on my tummy and creeping up on Wooly Sock or Wooly Sock#2.
There's got to be a good story I could write about afterwards!!!! Heck, I'm even gonna try a few yowls!!!!

She yowled alot, mostly just talking though. I discovered that when I yowled back at her, she got scared and ran off! Don't know what I said (I *tried* to copy the intonation she used, honest), but it certainly made things quiet in my house for several hours. Eventually found her hiding in the closet of the second bedroom, and had to speak very softly, and very babyish, to get her to come out. Poor thing, I terrified her.

LOL! Looking forward to pics of this. ;o) Nikki yowls to her 'prey' too, though she's an ordinary mog. Come to think of it, I haven't heard her singing to her piggy in a long time.

He walks into it like a cave, and claws at the bottom, with his butt sticking out, and yowls. It cracks me up. Bast knows what the !@# they're thinking. ;)

As far as Nikki goes, maybe you need to put piggy in spots that would entice her to talk some more!!
Have a good day, Marina!! ;)

Gabey8 - 16 May 2005 12:35 GMT LOL!
When it sounds like there's Kitty Mischief afoot somewhere not in my line of sight (ie, an adjacent room or on a different floor than I'm on), it's become habit for me to call out, in my best "ominous" voice, "CAPTAIN AND STANLEY!" This way, no matter which cat is creating the Kitty Mischief noises, I've got all my bases covered. ;o)
Not that they stop doing what they're doing until I actually GET UP and go see what's going on, mind you. But at least they're aware that I'm onto them. ;o)

John F. Eldredge - 16 May 2005 13:50 GMT >LOL! > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > >Donna, Captain,and Stanley This reminds me of the time that I heard several items fall off of the kitchen table (Crash! Thump! Tinkle!), followed by the sound of running cat feet. When I went to investigate, Annabel Lee came strolling _very_ casually into the kitchen from the opposite direction. If she had known how to whistle, I am sure she would have done so. I wasn't fooled, however.

Isn't it funny how they sound after said "crash, thump, and tinkle".... like horses galloping away from danger!!! I swear, when they're upstairs playing, you'd think I have a houseful of horses, rather than 3 or 4 soft padded kitties!!
