Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / July 2003Bet YOUR kitten's never done this!
We adopted two kittens several weeks ago. One handsome snowshoe named Hiro, one lovely tortie named Lola. Mostly I'm finding that having each other to drag around and pounce on keeps them out of trouble. Mostly. They do the usually "nighttime is playtime" thing, no big deal. Last night, however, was a new one on me. At 2:30am, I awoke to the sound of my hairdryer running. The kittens had not only managed to knock my dryer from its place, they managed to turn it on in the process. Mez >We adopted two kittens several weeks ago.

No, mine prefer to let their hair dry naturally ;^) > We adopted two kittens several weeks ago. One handsome snowshoe named > Hiro, one lovely tortie named Lola.

A friend of mine came home to find her garbage disposal running (water was off) and it ran so long that the motor was burning out when she got home. After that she had to tape the wall switch in the off position. :) > > We adopted two kittens several weeks ago.

Although my kittens have never turned on the garbage disposal or turned on the hairdryer, they enjoy getting themselves trapped in boxes and bags!! I woke up one morning to find my 14pounds tabby stumbling around with a kleenex box on his head!! The poor cat has a fetish with bags and boxes and will try to get into any that he sees (not knowing of course that he is no longer the little 2 pound kitten that he use to be). I have to be extra careful now to make sure nothing lies around in the house for the mischevious little thing to get into.!! Lainie My Tomcat used to love to flush the toilet and watch the water go down sometimes ten times in a row until we blocked the switch..... > My Tomcat used to love to flush the toilet and watch the water go down > sometimes ten times in a row until we blocked the switch..... that's brilliant LOL > My Tomcat used to love to flush the toilet and watch the water go down > sometimes ten times in a row until we blocked the switch..... I understand that this is the main problem with teaching cats to use the toilet. Flushing becomes a very popular game. Mez > We adopted two kittens several weeks ago.

But one time she fiddled with the nob in such a way that she locked the door. She was locked in a room and there was no way for us to get in as the keys were in the room with her. We had to call a locksmith to get her out. In another apartment, the cat learned to open the front door by leaping up and hitting the latch while pushing the door with her feet all in one motion. But she'd never close the door after she came through so we had to start locking it. We'd hear her hurling herself at the door for hours trying to open it instead of just using the open back window. Stubborn cat. |
