For some strange reason, Frank has suddenly decided that the fridge contains
something delicious, something a million times better than the inferior slop
that I served him for breakfast (Nutro Choice senior cat). I don't know what
brought this on. He spent several hours trying to scratch his way into the
fridge. Here he is reaching for the handle:

He should know by now that Meowmie is a soppy vegetarian and the fridge
never contains anything but vegetables. He's been with me for 16 years, for
pity's sake! He seems absolutely convinced that heaven lurks behind the
fridge door. Do your cats ever get this kind of monomania?


Oh how funny! You must give him something out of the fridge sometime. Sugar
gets monomania with blinds sometimes. Bat, bat, bat, bat.... It can be
insane making.

Well, if YOU eat it, it must be tastier than what you give her. Cat

Persia keeps doing this too. Following me into the kitchen, meowing loudly,
trying to get in the fridge and the pantry. Want an apple? No. Ow-ow-ow!
Dried pasta? Rice? What the heck do you want?! It's not like I've got a
chicken or cow or even fish in there. And I'm not a vegetarian. Goofy
cats.

The Evil 3 have never expressed slightest interest in fridge here....their
plump little fuzzbutts don't have to....they do unspeakable things to the
papers around the PC printer, and will start up on the master bedroom triple
dresser if breakfast is not forthcoming ASAP. By now the hoomins, deep in
sleep, can still recognize these sounds and bolt upright, running to kitchen
to fill food/water bowls for their short furry dictators. Cats *are* very
clever with pushing the right buttons on the hoomins (even though they don't
speak the languages of this planet, 3rd from our sun, not their homeworld!)
If they were not the size of earth household pets they *would* have "taken
over" and be running things outside our homes.

When my family first moved back to Nashville, Tennessee, in 1976, my
father initially refused to have an air conditioner, as he tended to
find most air conditioning too cold (he later changed his view when
his book collection started mildewing). One hot, sticky summer day,
I opened the refrigerator and our kitten hopped inside and curled up
on top of the whole watermelon at the bottom of the fridge. She
thought that she had found the perfect solution to the heat, and was
disappointed when I promptly scooped her back out again. She made
several more unsuccessful attempts to move into the refrigerator over
the next several days.
