Looking at the ceiling
Delilah and Stella often stop what they're doing and look up at the ceiling
.... almost as if the laser pointer light is there or some such distraction... but nothing. Does anyone else's cats do this and any idea why? -- rach |

Then I will also stare intently at the ceiling because she looks like she has seen an insect -- but I never see anything. MaryL |

Does anyone else's cats do this and any idea why? Sure! It's because "cats see things that we can't." (This is a funny cartoon by B. Kliban, done in the '70s.) My Gnarly, when we lived alone, loved to wait until late at night when I was studying, then stare intently at the bedroom closet door, like there was something in there. |

Does anyone else's cats do this and any idea why? They are most likely looking at the tiny flying insects that you carelessly allowed to come into your home! Man, are you dumb! IBen |

My theory is that it's a cat mind game - if they get you to look, they win. Hilary I sometimes think they're able to see ghosts.......... Linda |
