I told you all Harvey was a character!
Harvey has become a big fan of the window AC unit in our bedroom, it is
one of the ones that comes with a remote (lazy me!). He likes to sit in front of it and let the air blow on him, sometimes he trys to sit on it but soon moves (I guess his backside gets cold). To make a long story short, it was cool in the house last night so I had turned off the AC and raised the bedroom window. I was starting to go to sleep and I hear the AC come on. So I roll over and fuss at my husband about it being to cold to turn it off. Of course he says it wasn't me! So I turn it off and pretend to go to sleep sure enough out of the corner of my eye I see Harvey step on the remote, on comes the AC, and run sit in front of it. Had I not seen it with my own eyes I would have never thought it possible for a cat to turn on an AC. Skritches, KittyLady and Harvey who refuses to be to hot. |

Actually, not so good, but hey what can you say, smart little guy, isn't he? My furbabies (well two of them) have figured out how to get the furless "mom" up in the morning. We have cordless phones (two of 'em), and on the base/charging unit, there is a button called "Page". It makes the phone chirrup (rather like an alarm clock), so that the phone can be located if it's mislaid somewhere. Smokie and Barnabus have discovered that if they stand on this button in the bedroom, it wakes up meowmie, and she actually *gets out of bed*!!!! I keep trying to "hide" the button (with stuffed animals and such), but they both will move the stuffed animals just so they can stand on that stupid page button.

I think our furbabies are alot smarter than we give them credit for. I
agree with the alarm clock thing, I need to hit the snooze at least 3 times on a good morning. Skritches, KittyLady and Harvey who says who needs alarm clocks if you have a cat. |

In message .com,
KittyLady writes I think our furbabies are alot smarter than we give them credit for. I agree with the alarm clock thing, I need to hit the snooze at least 3 times on a good morning. I came home one night to five messages on the answerphone. All of them contained background noise, and a couple had a bemused female voice saying "Hello", then commenting that there was no-one there. Dialling 1471 (which will tell you the last number to call you in the UK) got me the vet's number. They rang again, and I was there to answer it. Apparently the phone rings, and the answerphone picks up, but all they heard was background noise - no message. So I rang my home phone from my mobile, and sure enough, the electronic voice telling me that there was no-one available to answer my call was not there. All there was was background noise -- maybe a television on in the background - and certainly no spoken message. I came to the conclusion that one of the residents had sat/walked on the answerphone controls in the right combination to record a new message, doubtless comprehensible only to the Mothership. -- Cathi |
