He's giving me THE LOOK
I've gotten into the habit of giving my cats "treats" at bedtime. When
I don't immediately produce the treats, one of the cats (Espy) will stare at me and give me "THE LOOK". His eyes squit a bit and I can just about hear his little brain broadcasting "the treats the treats the treats". It is just the funniest look I've ever seen on a cat. I mean, they're not big on facial expressions for the most part, but that squit is just too cute. He doesn't mean it to be cute I think but it comes out that way. Does anyone else have a cat that squits? |

I think the British (well, I've read it in racing mysteries) use it as a term for diarrhea. "The squits". |

I was kinda wondering if I should ask what a squit was. ;-) If memory serves, "Squit" was a particular pigeon on Animaniacs. Mine are not as subtle as your guy; when they want something, they make it abundantly obvious. Jacob, however, does do "googly eyes" when he's feeling all lovey-dovey and drooly. This comprises about 90% of his waking activity, so I see the googly eyes a lot. :-) That's subtlety compared to my girls. The second I step foot in the kitchen (which, by coincidence, is where the fridge is, and is by happenstance where the raw beef is), I'd swear up and down that there were cats coming in from all angles and dimensions wanting a bit of that london broil I keep in the fridge for my two girls.. -- Dennis Carr - | I may be out of my mind, http://www.dennis.furtopia.org | But I have more fun that way. ------------------------------------+------------------------------- |

I have to cats that do the stare. I think that it their way of reminding you
that you are in their service and that you can't possibly sneak anything past them. -- Panther TEK: Staying On Top Of All Your Computer Needs! www.members.cox.net/catprotector/panthertek Cat Galaxy: All Cats, All The Time! www.catgalaxymedia.com "dgk" wrote in message ...
