Are cats psychic? (psychotic?)
My Dusty ... it's very strange (the situation, that is)... it seems she
can anticipate my every move. If I get up to go to the bathroom ... she is two steps AHEAD of me ... if I get up to go to the kitchen ... two steps AHEAD of me ... leading the way ... kind following me ... in reverse(?) The strangest thing is ... occassionally when my back is bothering me I'll jump into a hot bath with ... of course ... Dusty sitting on the side of the tub watching over me. Ever since she was a kitten we played a bathtub game where I squeeze my fist real fast and water squirts out of my hand, and she 'catches' it with her paw. She loves that game ... Every once in a while I would cup some water in my hand and pour it on her just to mess with her (cuz if you can't MESS with cats' heads, then what's life all about?) ... she would, of course, get ****ed and jump down for a minute ... then be right back for more play ... And now it seems like if I just THINK about pouring water on her ... she lets out a little chirp (yelling at me) and jumps down. I don't know if it's just some very subtle move that I might make which she then recognizes or what ... but she sure seems to KNOW what I am THINKING about doing ... Maybe I should have named her Claire? (voyant) ... |

Are cats psychic? (psychotic?)
Hehehe, my uncle has this ginger cat that showed up a few years ago.
My uncle is allergic to a lot of things, including cats and has bad asthma. He didn't want this cat to keep hanging around, so one day when the cat was wandering around the back door, looking for a way to get in, my uncle took a cup of water and threw it and hit the cat full in the face with the water, thinking it would scare the cat away. The cat jumped back, ran a few steps, shook his head vigorously, and then the little bugger came back for more!!! He's strictly outdoors, but likes to keep my uncle's yard as his domain. My uncle has named him Goofball. Once Goofball was sunning himself while my uncle was watering the yard with a hose. you see what's coming? He just aimed a little squirt in Goofballs direction, and got him good, and it was enough to make Goofball levitate a few feet. and after he had recovered, go back to sunning himself, but with a sneaky eye on my uncle. Silly cat. Whenever i get a chance to relax in a hot bath, it's only a matter of time before i see the door nudged open and a pair of paws on the edge of the tub. It's usually Mischief, with a WTH look. Kristi |

Silly cat. LOL! Whenever i get a chance to relax in a hot bath, it's only a matter of time before i see the door nudged open and a pair of paws on the edge of the tub. It's usually Mischief, with a WTH look. I just took a shower, and as always, Caliban sat just outside the shower curtain and every now and then stuck a paw or his face around the curtain. I think he's trying to protect Meowmie from the evil waddermonsters. This boy is just fascinated by water. He never tires of watching the toilet flush. He hangs with his paws over the edge of the bowl and tries to catch the water as it's swirling away. I never dare to leave the lid open, because I'm quite sure he would eventually fall in. Here he is at his favourite pastime: http://tinyurl.com/7ryrv He's even bigger now, so his whole front end hangs into the bowl when he's at his hobby. ;o) I'm a bit worried about how he'll react on the island this summer. I hope he doesn't jump into the sea. -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban.

I hope he doesn't jump into the sea. Pua has a water fascination as well! Every morning when I get up, if I don't immediately get her a fresh bowl of water, she screams at me in her weird, little meezer voice. Once I put the bowl down, she consumes half of it and she's happy. (I have to do this *before* I take my morning pee.) Then she follows me to the bathroom to carefully watch me pee and as soon as I hit the "flusher" she jumps up to the rim to watch the water swish and swirl. Then I have to close the lid completely, so that she doesn't jump into the toilet bowl. The next part of her daily routine is a leap into the tub to lick the dripping water from the tub drain - our bathtub spiggot leaks, no matter how much my hubby has tried to fix it. It's like a mini waterfall to Pua and as such, she's almost always playing in the tub. Her little paws get all wet, so when she crawls out of the tub, I get little kitty footprints all over the bathroom floor. It's never boring around here. :~) kili |
