Cat Forum / General Topics / May 2008Cat quirks...
Anybody notice particular quirks with their cat? Lately, I've notice (rather heard) my cat talking in her sleep. It starts off as little "mrow, mrow, mrow" noises and then progresses to long drawn out "meeeooowrrrrrrrrr" strings lasting more than five seconds each. Maybe they're the cat version of a snore, but whatever they are, I find myself watching her sleep for minutes at a time so I can catch the opera when it happens. I've also noticed that my cat likes laying on cardboard boxes. I've put out several pads and soft towels for her to lay on, but her first choice is always to stretch out and roll around on top of some cardboard box. Maybe it's the texture or the smell of cardboard, but whatever it is, that's what she goes for every time. > Anybody notice particular quirks with their cat? > [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > it's the texture or the smell of cardboard, but whatever it is, that's what > she goes for every time. Cats are fur-covered bundles of quirks, mostly charming ones, often funny ones, sometimes pesky ones. One of my Melvin's quirks that I enjoy the most is how much pleasure he gets from exuberantly rolling around in the bathtub.

My Deetoo likes jumping into the empty bathtub too. It's usually a mad dash from my apartment door to the other end of the apartment ending with a crash like a bowling ball in the bathtub. She's a decent sized cat, so there's always lots of noise whether it's the bathtub, a wall or something else that she's bouncing off. > "Diana" <imdianawithoutspam@bellsouth.not> wrote in message news > > Cats are fur-covered bundles of quirks, mostly charming ones, often [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > bathtub.

I wonder what either of them would do if unbeknownst to them someone had put water in the bathtub. (Dirty trick--I'm not going to try it.) > Lately, I've notice (rather heard) my cat talking in her sleep. Kitty is dreaming and sleep talking. Sounds like he's replaying scenarios of meeting other cats in his dreams. Not an uncommon thing to see...it is funny though. > I've also noticed that my cat likes laying on cardboard boxes. What cat doesn't? Cardboard is a "cool" alternative to a warm blanket. Cardboard is made from wood, wood is made from trees... cats love to scratch, climb, gnaw on, play with, lay on, and urinate on wood. It's an instinctual natural material for them. Hobbes talks to me whenever he wants and to get my attention. His meow sounds like Barb and other times Mom. Then there's Feisty and Smokey who love to crawl in the shower and tip water filled dixie cups over. And even pick them up with their teeth and drop them on the floor. >> Lately, I've notice (rather heard) my cat talking in her sleep. > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > play with, lay on, and urinate on wood. > It's an instinctual natural material for them. |
