Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / August 2007Stop, Drop & Roll
We have a long haired manx, Bobby Pants. When ever he enters into a room where humans are situated, he makes eye contact, dashes towards said human, SLAMS on the brakes about 4 feet away, and "Stops, Drops and Rolls". It's pretty entertaining to watch. -bonbon > We have a long haired manx, Bobby Pants.

There's even an audible "oof" sound when she hits the floor. The proper response to this is..."Ooooo Bikkie you're so cuuuuute." Sherry IS this some kind of normal behavior? BEcause Mr. Bonkers does the same thing. When you come into the room he comes over and then thuds into the floor. We call him Mr. Ploppers. Usually he wants a very vigorous side rubbing. >> We have a long haired manx, Bobby Pants.

But she's more like a leisure suit than a tuxedo, LOL. Here's a pic of Biskit looking at a picture of herself I took when she strayed up. Kind of a "before & after" http://members.aol.com/jjrich0523/makeover.jpg Bikkie again http://members.aol.com/jjrich0523/bikkiepost.jpg http://members.aol.com/jjrich0523/biskit.jpg Sherry Thanks for the pics Sherry. Your Biskit has some serious "bib" action going on there. What a beaut. -bonbon >Here's a pic of Biskit looking at a picture of herself I took when she >strayed up.

He stops drops and rolls on top of another cat. Mostly Bonnie. He just loooooves that cat. She responds by bopping his ears or even biting one of them to get him to get off of her.

Kinda reminds me of "Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In" with Arte Johnson riding the tricycle when he suddenly hits an obstacle and falls over. >My own American Shorthair Leo does something akin to that.

ROFLMAO!!!!!!! OMG - you should have put a BW with that post. I totally remember that from 'Laugh-In'. Thanks for the blast from the past. I love it. -bonbon > We have a long haired manx, Bobby Pants.

It'll be worth the watch. Bobby Pants is a real character. -bonbon >> We have a long haired manx, Bobby Pants.

It's pretty entertaining to watch. How adorable is that!!??? Does he display "gittchee belly" or "upside-downy head" at the end of the roll?

Does he display "gittchee belly" or "upside-downy >head" at the end of the roll? Oh you know it. Then he starts kneading invisible bread. He has these front paws of such magnitude, that when fully stretched out are actually quite scary. -bonbon >Hugs, > >CatNipped > >> -bonbon >>> We have a long haired manx, Bobby Pants.
