Default Our Housekeeper Kitty

Pemberton is a Short Haired American Tabby, who will be 2 years old in
mid August. She was adopted from the North Shore Animal League here
in NYC on April 7 just a year ago. She is a neutered female. We
adore her and she has settled into our family beautifully.

But, aside from eating like every meal is the last one she will ever
get (which I have already commented upon in this forum), she has one
other extremely odd habit. She likes to play "housekeeper". Virtually
every morning we find one of many kitty blankets scattered around the
apartment, usually near a closet door. We leave a nice selection of
these on the kitty day beds and other napping sites that we know our
cats like to frequent during the day. Pemberton seems to feel that
they should be "put away" dragging them to the closet doors (or
nearby) so that I can fold them and.....put them away!! No matter how
often they are put back (daily) into their original places for the
enjoyment of the cats, there is always one or two to be found near a
closet door each morning!!

This is not an annoying habit or a dangerous one in any way, shape or
form, merely amusing. I thought that others in the group might find
it funny too--or perhaps their kitties are doing the same thing!!

Best Wishes,

Peg

hahaha.. kind of reminds me of one of my domesticated female cats who
anytime you play with her, she grabs whatever it is in her mouth and
runs off with it, like a dog! She then always to puts it where she
always sleeps Then she's just instantly bored with it apparently,
it's quite strange! Nice story.
